Chapter 17: Choi Yuna, a -year-old fan After Jin Shiming handed the business card to Jin Yiyuan, he left with Suzuki Taichi. Based on his observations and the few words he had just heard, it was not difficult to guess that this girl named Jin Yiyuan was born into a fairly wealthy family, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that she was a rich lady. For children from this kind of family, even if their parents support them in pursuing their dreams of entering the music industry, they will often be placed in medium or large companies rather than newly established small companies like BD Entertainment. Therefore, Jin Shiming did not have as strong a desire to win over Zheng Yilin, and only gave her a business card symbolically. "Wow! That Oppa just now is totally my type! Is he an actor trained by this company?" "I think he's more handsome than Hyun Bin and Won Bin! And his voice is very nice, like the charm of a vinyl record!" "His legs are super long and his body proportions are great. Maybe he's a model? Look at his back. Doesn't he look like a walking magazine?" "Yewon, chebai, can you share my future boyfriend's contact information with me?" The girls surrounded Jin Yiyuan and chattered, their eyes full of envy.

Unable to withstand the burning gazes of the crowd, Jin Yiyuan openly showed his business card. However, her fingers were still tightly grasping the edge of the business card, and she did not pass the card around for everyone to circulate. Perhaps Jin Yiyuan herself did not notice that she was so nervous about this business card, fearing that it would be snatched away by someone else. "Jin Shiming, the president of BD Entertainment? That handsome oppa is actually the president?" "He has an actress's face, a model's figure and a singer's voice, but he chose to start an entertainment company from scratch. Is he some kind of second-generation chaebol runaway?" "I searched on Naver and found out that this president was once a solo singer under DSP! The information shows that he debuted in 2006, the same year as my BIGBANG's oppa!" "I don't have any impression of such a handsome oppa. This doesn't make sense! Just based on his face, even if his singing skills are average, he should be able to attract a large number of female fans, right?" "Great! The information also mentioned that this oppa has participated in the production of KARA and Rainbow's albums, and he wrote the lyrics and choreographed the super popular song "Mr."!" "Damn it, DSP, they delayed such a hexagonal treasure artist! If it was SM who managed it, it would definitely be more popular than Rain!" As Jin Yiyuan listened to everyone's discussions, he became more and more curious about the owner of the business card. After his failed debut, he transformed himself into a producer. After changing his track to prove himself, he chose to leave the company and work on his own. Even though the information about Jin Shiming on the Internet is incomplete, it is enough to prove that he is a talented, visionary and practical man. In Jin Shiming, Jin Yiyuan vaguely saw the shadow of his father, who also started from scratch and now runs dozens of dental clinics. "Being a trainee here may be an unforgettable experience for a lifetime!" Jin Yiyuan is a child with a strong opinion, and at this moment she suddenly had an idea in her mind. She silently put the business card into her pocket and patted the pocket gently at the end. …… Choi Yuna has been very depressed recently. She has loved music since she was a child and aspired to be a singer. With her talent and hard work, she successfully passed the audition and entered Cube Company and became a trainee.

Under the wise leadership of President Hong Shengcheng, Cube has grown rapidly in recent years and is showing a trend of catching up with the Big Three. However, just as Choi Yuna entered a planning team and was about to make her debut, everything changed! There are internal rumors that President Hong Seung-sung has ALS and is in poor health, with signs that he will be relegated to the second line of management. Without its soul, Cube seems to have lost its intelligence and has made many stupid moves. Furthermore, Girls' Generation reached the top of the Peninsula, making their senior girl groups such as 4Minute tremble in fear. The company's top management thought about it and decided that since the new plan was likely to fail, they might as well cancel it. As a result, the project was cancelled and Choi Yuna left Cube. For the first time, she understood that effort and results were not proportional. But Choi Yuna did not give up. Coincidentally, when "Kpop Star" started auditions, she plucked up the courage to sign up for the show. The result was just as shown on TV: there was almost no such person. Park Jin-young's harsh comments were like sharp knives stabbing her heart. She couldn't help but fall into self-doubt. Was she really just an ordinary person and didn't have the talent to debut as a singer? After the show was broadcast, several agencies contacted her. After all, people that the Big Three look down upon are still rare in small companies! On the eve of their debut, if they hype up the comments about Park Jin-young and Yang Hyun-suk on the show, wouldn't they have ready-made popularity? There are many companies that offered Choi Yuna overly good conditions, guaranteeing her debut as long as she signed the contract. Reason told her that there was probably something fishy going on and it was most likely a scam. However, her desire to debut made it difficult for her to reject this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that seemed to be within her reach. On this day, Choi Yuna was hoping for a lucky break and was about to agree to sign a contract with a company when a guest suddenly came to her house. The other party claimed to be a talent scout from BD Entertainment, a small company whose name had never been heard of. However, Choi Yuna picked up a company profile prepared by the scout and flipped through two pages. Suddenly, she saw a familiar name. "Excuse me, can I interrupt you? Has your president Kim Se-myung from BD Entertainment ever been active as a solo singer in the past?" Choi Yuna interrupted the scout who was talking to her parents. "Our President Jin was once an artist under DSP. He founded BD Entertainment some time ago after he terminated his contract with the company." The scout nodded. After receiving a positive answer, Cui Yuna's eyes immediately showed surprise. She quickly ran back to her room, took out an album from the drawer of the desk, and then ran back to the living room. "I've been a fan of Semyung oppa for ten years, and I still have his debut album in my collection!" Choi Yuna boasted while holding the album that showed some signs of time. Choi Yuna was still young at that time, and she accidentally found an album in the corner of a music store. The singer on the album cover looked very young, which made her quite curious. Could this Oppa, who looked only a few years older than her, sing well? After listening to the album, Choi Yuna was deeply shocked by Kim Se-myung's talent, so she used her New Year's money to buy the album. Since then, Choi Yoo-na has become one of the few fans of Kim Se-myung. "It's a pity that Shiming oppa never released an album afterwards, which made me quite disappointed!" Choi Yuna said with regret.

Halfway through chasing a star, your idol disappears. Who understands this feeling? (End of this chapter)
