Now That I Have Become a Woman, I Am a Vtuber - Chapter 551

“First, let’s go inside.”

“Oh, okay.”

For a moment, I thought, “Why is Han Se-ryeong here?”

But for someone like her, she is indeed a wonderful idol.

After all, she’s an idol active in a nationally loved long-standing group.

It’s not strange for the composer to call her.

I remember her skill was well evaluated too.

“Wow… It’s still the same with all these signatures here.”

As Han Se-ryeong walked down the hallway to the lobby, she admired the signatures displayed around her.

Well, there really are a lot of signatures here.

You could even call it a celebrity signature museum.

If you look over there, my signed hat is nicely displayed too.

“Oh, there’s Soo-hyun’s signature here too.”

“Yes, he gave it to me last time.”

By the way, my signatures include one from Kim Soo-hyun and one from Miro—two in total.

Both are displayed, no less.

“By the way, have you been doing well since the audition?”

“Hmm? Yeah, I’ve been good. How about you, Soo-hyun?”

“I’ve been busy as well. Oh, did you know I started YouTube?”

“I saw! It was fun, right?”

“How about you? You have a chance to appear directly.”

“Hmm? If you contact me later…”

Anyway.

As we chatted gently, we came out to the lobby.

At that moment, the gaze of three men sitting at a table shifted towards me.

“Are you two close by any chance?”

The composer asked, probably having overheard our conversation in the hallway.

“You didn’t know? We’ve worked on a project together before.”

“Oh, I think I’ve seen that.”

“Do you watch dramas?”

“I watch when a friend is in it.”

“Oh….”

He doesn’t seem like the type to watch dramas, but it’s surprising that he watches when someone he knows is in it.

But it’s true that he’s good at checking in on friends.

“Have you seen the drama that just came out?”

“Yes, we all watched it together.”

Then the duo of disciples must have seen my splendid acting.

I turned to Jeong-hoon, sitting on one side.

“How was my acting, Jeong-hoon?”

“Uh? Um, it was really good….”

“What role were you playing?”

“Uh… a secretary?”

I frowned at the response.

What? A secretary?

The secretary is in the credits.

In the latest drama, I was a high school girl, though.

“I don’t think your son has seen it?”

“Oh, no.”

Why am I so nervous?

I took a quick glance and saw that he wasn’t able to look at Han Se-ryeong.

“Se-ryeong unni, I think Jeong-hoon is a fan of yours.”

“Huh? Really?”

“He can’t even make eye contact.”

“D-Don’t say that…”

Seeing him like that made me tease him a bit, and he really looked flustered and couldn’t lift his head.

What’s wrong with him?

“Oh, he says he’s not a fan.”

“Hmm, really…? That’s too bad…”

“Oh, no…!”

Wait, he really was a fan?

Does he also watch VTuber broadcasts, anime, and idols?

This guy is totally crazy for MZ.

And on top of that, he composes music too.

Is it the opposite?

He might have started watching idols just to get into composing.

Since his father is a musician, he must have studied while being a fan.

“Just sit comfortably.”

“Okay, got it.”

By the way, unlike how she appeared during the audition, Han Se-ryeong had a cheerful expression.

Is it because she came here for her main job?

“By the way, I think I can teach Soo-hyun this time, right?”

From the way she said that, she seems really confident.

Well, it’s nicer to see her like this than how she was at the filming location.

Now she looks a bit more mature.

“Um, but I’m not sure yet. I’m still contemplating.”

“Huh? Really? Isn’t it a song by composer Kang Woo-hyeon?”

When she said it wasn’t decided yet, Han Se-ryeong looked surprisingly shocked.

…If it’s an incomplete song, it makes sense to contemplate, right?

What kind of status does Kang Woo-hyeon have?

“Mr. Soo-hyun is naturally the type to be full of himself. Since he has worked with me a lot.”

“Oh….”

“What does that mean?”

“Nothing.”

Full of himself is a curious choice of words.

If there’s anyone in the industry as driven as me, they should come out.

I’ve really run on a killer schedule.

For now, I got up and went to the refrigerator to grab some drinks.

The duo of disciples was frozen, so I should take care of this.

“Here, drink this.”

“Thanks! Is it Zero?”

“Yes, yes, but are you okay with your activities?”

Since she’s an idol, I asked while grabbing a zero-calorie drink.

Wasn’t she still active overseas?

So I couldn’t even imagine her coming here.

“My tour just ended the day before yesterday.”

“Oh, so you’re done for now?”

“Yes, I have filming in autumn too.”

“Hmm, that’s true.”

By the way, at the last audition, Han Se-ryeong ultimately didn’t get the role.

But thanks to the writer’s strong appeal, she received another role that suits her better, which is a good thing for her.

It’s a role with a lot of lines, so I’ll probably see her often once filming starts.

“Are you two filming the same drama again?”

At that moment, Lee Kang-jun asked as he overheard our conversation.

Since the articles haven’t been published yet, should I have been careful with my words?

Well, these people won’t leak it, so it doesn’t matter.

“Yes, but please don’t mention it anywhere.”

“Understood.”

Still, just in case, I instructed them to keep quiet.

…I don’t think any of the composer’s slaves would have a place to leak this.

Well, anyway.

After Han Se-ryeong took a seat at the table, there was a moment of awkward air.

“Haha, it’s quiet, isn’t it?”

“Yeah. I guess everyone is nervous now that a popular idol is here.”

“Oh, is that so?”

“Soo-hyun…”

Look at that.

Jeong-hoon and Lee Kang-jun.

They can’t even make eye contact with Han Se-ryeong.

It’s funny how they can maintain eye contact with me.

Where did the Jeong-hoon who was nervous in our first meeting go, and the polite Lee Kang-jun who asked for my signature back then?

That’s why familiarity can be so terrifying.

It might also be because I saw them during the VTuber days.

There’s an enormous gap between a VTuber and an incredibly popular idol.

Anyway, after waiting in an awkward silence…

“Oh, they say the other two have arrived.”

Finally, I heard the news about the arrival of the other idols.

“Oh, let me go greet them.”

“No, the disciples will open the door, so just sit tight.”

I was thinking about going to greet them again.

But after hearing the composer’s words and seeing the two stand up abruptly, I decided to stay seated.

“They listen well.”

“It took quite a while to get to that point.”

“…I can see that.”

That’s fine for Jeong-hoon.

But to see Lee Kang-jun submissive like that is surprising.

Well, he’s someone with a strong desire for success.

He might actually listen to the composer even more attentively.

“Hello!”

“We’re here!”

At that moment, two idols wearing caps and sunglasses entered the lobby.

“Oh?”

“Se-ryeong sunbae?”

It looked like they had seen Han Se-ryeong before.

“I see you know each other.”

“Yeah, we’ve met a few times.”

“Oh, aren’t you an actor?”

And the idols recognized me too.

“Oh, yes… You know me?”

“Of course! I really enjoyed the credits!”

As they said that, the two idols took off their sunglasses and hats, and both of them were familiar faces.

“Nice to meet you! I’m Seol Woo-yeon!”

“Oh yes, I’m Kim Soo-hyun, and this is…”

“Oh, I’m Kim Ha-yeon.”

“Yes, nice to meet you.”

I’m not that interested in idols.

But while working in the entertainment industry, I had ingrained the faces of well-known idols.

These are indeed some of those famous idols.

“Now that everyone is here, let’s listen to the song.”

Since everyone the composer called has arrived,

after exchanging greetings, we finally moved to listen to the unfinished song.

“By the way, have you heard what kind of song it is in advance?”

“No, I only heard it’s an idol song.”

As we headed to the recording studio,

I shook my head and answered Han Se-ryeong’s cautious question.

So it seems she doesn’t know what the song is either.

…Even so, to call three popular idols to the workshop is truly impressive.

The composer’s status is frightening.

The YouTube recording that I shot with the composer will probably be edited and released in a few days.

This will definitely lead to articles about the new song.

I heard that the first video with Moon Chang-sik came out, and it also got press coverage.

The growth rate of YouTube might be faster than expected.

Well, anyway.

“Everyone, come in.”

After a short walk down the hallway, we opened the familiar door to the recording studio.

“I’ll get it ready, so please sit comfortably.”

“Yes.”

The recording studio had a multi-person sofa.

As we sat down side by side, the composer fiddled with the equipment and said.

“It’s still an unfinished version, but the outline is already set.”

“Oh… Can we look forward to it?”

“Yes, I’m confident, so feel free to perform.”

“Wow!”

Hearing such a confident proclamation, the gathered idols reacted enthusiastically.

…Being caught up in all this makes me feel a bit drained.

If a unit is formed, I’ll be practicing and coordinating with these people.

I’m already a little worried.

“Then, I’ll play it.”

After that,

we listened to the song prepared by the composer.

The overall bouncy melody line filled the recording studio, where Lee Kang-jun had roughly recorded a demo version.

…Just from listening, I could feel the vibe.

Now I understand why it’s called an idol song.

It’s catchy and bright, and it has that feeling you get when passing by a telecommunications store on the street.

In short, it’s the kind of hit that would be played on the streets.

“How is it?”

After listening to the entire song,

the composer turned his chair towards us and asked.

So…

“Wow, it’s good!!”

“I really want to do it!”

“I’m glad to hear you like it.”

As expected from idols who have hit many songs, they smiled and responded as if they had caught the vibe.

“My thought is that I would like Ms. Woo-yeon to be the main vocalist for this song.”

“Uh… Me?”

“Yes, haven’t you also participated in a singing competition?”

…A singing competition? Is he referring to that variety show?

I was also someone who was invited to that show.

It was a program where you sing anonymously with a mask on.

Winning there means she must be really good at singing….

“Well, I understand!”

“Soo-hyun, are you okay with that?”

“Uh? Yeah… If it’s that prestigious, I have no choice.”

Yeah, if it’s a prestigious show, how can I compete?

I gracefully gave up.

That means Seol Woo-yeon is the main vocalist, and I’ll be the visual.

Se-ryeong seems to have the position of a rapper from what I saw before, so she’ll stick with that.

So Kim Ha-yeon could be the dancer?

The balance seems good.

And since everyone is pretty, it’ll also be a visual group.

“So then, Soo-hyun, have you made your decision?”

At that moment,

the composer focused his gaze on me and asked.

Oh, I see.

Now that I think about it, I was the only one who hadn’t made a decision yet.

“Um….”

Um, uhh… the song is good.

The members are also excellent.

…What should I do?

Should I do it?

Since I don’t have any major schedules besides YouTube.

And the song feels good.

“Okay, I’ll give it a try.”

Besides, it feels a bit awkward to back out in this atmosphere.

Why not give it a shot?

“Great! Then let’s proceed as planned.”

With that,

a rare smile from the composer welcomed the formation of a unique unit comprising an idol, actor, VTuber, and artist all in one team.
