“Team Leader. He isn’t coming out.”
While the café owner was staring at them, Manager Han JungSuk whispered to KangYoon. However, KangYoon didn’t move. He ordered for another drink, and the owner couldn’t say anything since one customer was buying a lot of drinks by himself.
“Are they editing a video or something? No, there’s no way a producer for live programmes would do video editing…”
LIke KangYoon said, Producer Yokozeki was only in charge of Music Station. This meant that he was a on-the-scene personnel. How much editing would a live broadcast group like Music Station need? Not that much. In other words, there was no need for any editing. And that meant that there was no reason for him to be so late.
“Is he doing another broadcast or something?
“No, if I remember correctly…”
At that moment, the elevator stopped and someone was coming out. He was wearing a bucket hat and had long hair. He also had a small stature. It was Producer Yokozeki.
“Let’s go.”
KangYoon went straight away. Manager Han JungSuk also followed him, but KangYoon was fast and he couldn’t catch up.
[Excuse me. Are you Producer Yokozeki Tatsushi?]
KangYoon stopped the man who was about to leave the lobby. Then, the man with the bucket hat looked up towards KangYoon with a dumbfounded face.
[I… am?]
[Good evening. I am Lee KangYoon who contacted you before. I am a team leader from MG Entertainment, and I…]
[*Sigh*]
However, the man sighed as soon as he saw KangYoon. His expression was one of ‘getting tired of something’ as he creased his face.
[The talk is already over. We already made our stance clear to you, and I have nothing to speak about anymore.]
[I am very well aware that there hasn’t been a precedent where Music Station has allowed a foreign singer to appear on it. I am also aware that the nationalistic Asai TV station cannot easily allow it. However, if you look at this video, JooAh is a singer with a style that cannot be seen in Japan.]
KangYoon played the video with JooAh in it on the PMP. It was a different material to what he sent before. After having a look at the video, which was concert-based, Producer Yokozeki answered.
[Fuu… I understand. However, to flip what is already decided will be hard. I will take my leave.]
The voice cooled down, and KangYoon noticed that. This meant that there is a reason for it. He thought of that ‘reason.’
