99 – 22nd Floor: Containment

As expected, we received the Grand Prize for girl groups at the Lanet and Apple Chart Awards, the first awards ceremonies of the year.

But there was an unexpected dark horse…

We received the Grand Prize at every broadcasting station except for MAC, with whom we have a bad relationship.

“Huh…? Us?”

‘What? Does this mean my favors were meaningless…?’

I thought it would be difficult since other girl groups had higher records overseas, but our domestic recognition must have been high enough to overcome that.

Amidst the tremendous cheers, I was bewildered, and the other members, except for Rain, burst into tears.

“Hic…! Thank you for giving us such a great award… Sniff! I guess if you don’t give up and work hard until the end, you can eventually seize the opportunity when it’s given. In the future… Sob…! We will become an even harder-working Serenia!!”

Sua’s tearful acceptance speech marked the end of the year.

Sua and Rain became adults, and their hearts, as well as their appearances, matured a little.

And finally, the highly anticipated concert announcement was made.

[February 22nd. Serenia Halo Skydome Announcement!!]

[Serenia, Breaking Through the Idol Group Barrier?]

The Halo Skydome has a capacity of a whopping 30,000.

It may seem small, but it’s a place that even top-tier, well-known idols can’t dare to attempt.

No matter how large the fandom is, it’s usually within 20,000, and if it doesn’t sell out, it becomes prey for malicious idol fans and gets mocked as an “empty-empty concert,” which is a bonus. Moreover, it’s usually not attempted because it’s a deficit for the company.

Only truly global groups or groups called legends have succeeded.

And we are now challenging that place.

But as expected, it wasn’t easy from the start.

Since we had already swept the year-end awards, we began to be attacked by malicious fandoms who had hoped their group would receive the Grand Prize. Idol malicious fandoms… are famous for being crazy bitches, no need to say it twice.

 

This is Aurora Entertainment’s conference room.

Bang!!

“How dare they do this… We can’t just let this go!”

The furious Director slammed the conference room table and stood up.

OTNXSU9XcTFURXdtd0tweHpoait4a3NrdjZMYThnR3hSV3FsM2p1eDNWcEg4aXdVZXpvQ2xjTEdLRUpsZTBLdQ

“Should we just sue them all?”

The lawyer in charge of our company’s legal affairs asked.

It was a meeting attended by me, the Director, the CEO, and several people who knew my secret. In fact, it can be said that Serenia’s direction is mostly decided here.

“Suing them… There’s a lot of truth in it, so it’ll be too disadvantageous if we go with defamation by stating facts.”

The Director, having calmed down, sat back down.

“Then, let’s start with the false information one by one. Which of these are true?”

[Lee Dohee Breast Fabrication Suspicion]

[Lee Dohee Sexual Bribery Suspicion]

[Lim Sua Nepotism Suspicion]

[Lee Rain Bullying Rumors]

[Lee Dohee Uterus Tattoo Suspicion]

[Hyeri’s Father Criminal Suspicion]

‘Half of them are about me?’

“Hmm… It would be faster to say what’s false, wouldn’t it? Everything except for Rain’s bullying rumors…”

My breast fabrication suspicion is the opposite, but anyway, it’s true that it’s fabricated. Someone did a detailed photo analysis and revealed that the swimsuit photo showed me wearing something other than skin.

As for the sexual bribery, on the day I was with the Apple Chart CEO, a car accident happened nearby, and when they looked at the black box footage, it showed me wearing revealing clothes and heading to a strange place.

I was wearing sunglasses and a mask, so it’s still just a suspicion whether it’s me or not, but since there aren’t many women in Korea with pink hair and tits and ass as big as mine, it’s almost certain to be me.

‘But if that’s the case, shouldn’t the breast fabrication be disproven automatically?’

It seems the troublemakers don’t even think that those two claims are contradictory. They’re probably just throwing anything they can to see what sticks.

Lim Sua’s nepotism suspicion is nothing special.

“Isn’t it obvious that I created a girl group for my daughter?”

I wondered why they were raising Serenia so preciously, but Lim Sua was the daughter of the Aurora Entertainment CEO. The Director is the CEO’s younger sister, eight years apart…

‘So that’s why she wasn’t fired even though she was incompetent in the past?’

Something that was strange has been resolved.

As for the uterus tattoo, it was slightly erased when I stumbled and bumped into something during an old variety show, but someone caught it, even though it was barely recognizable and couldn’t be seen in the editing.

They said they adjusted the brightness and did AI analysis, and when they connected what they saw like constellations, it looked like a uterus tattoo.

“Dohee, do you have a uterus tattoo?”

“Haa… This, I got it a long time ago. I didn’t want it, I was forced to get it. I’m sorry I couldn’t say it sooner.”

Yes, that damn succubus bitch forced me to do it.

“Ah…”

“Heo… You don’t need to be sorry.”

“Such a story…”

Rain’s bullying rumors are just a misunderstanding because Rain has a quiet personality, and Hyeri’s mother passed away and she hasn’t been in contact with her father for a long time.

“Then let’s sue for the bullying rumors first. In the company announcement, we’ll just write that it’s spreading false information, and if we don’t specify what we’re suing for, they’ll be a little more cautious.”

“And… what about the breast fabrication? Should we clarify it right away?”

“Let’s hold off for now. We did deceive them, so let’s decide after seeing public sentiment. Even if we do, it’s a bit much to announce it directly, so let’s find a way to let them know indirectly.”

‘Tch, I thought I could finally take off this uncomfortable push-up bra…’

 

January 16th.

Halo Skydome ticket sales began.

This is my room in the dorm.

‘Please, please, please!!!’

“Please, please, please!!!”

I’m watching the ticket sales site with Hyeri, who is saying my thoughts next to me.

3… 2… 1!

Ding!

The ticket sales site opened.

Empty seats are disappearing quickly.

“Ooh…!!”

10,000 seats were sold in just 10 seconds after the start of ticket sales.

“Ooh!! Is it going to sell out!!”

“Kyaaa! What do we do!”

Honestly, it’s likely to sell out.

This concert is about 38% cheaper than the usual ticket price, in preparation for the influx of people who don’t usually go to concerts. Even if it sells out, it’s practically break-even, but they decided to do it anyway because it would leave the name value of ‘Idol who sold out the Halo Dome.’

But after 1 minute.

Only 2,000 more seats were sold.

The upward trend completely stopped.

“Huh…? Ah, no!!!”

“It’s okay… There’s still more than a month left…”

“Y-Yeah, let’s not watch this. The general public will slowly buy tickets after seeing the promotional materials…”

Hyeri and I slowly close the laptop.

 

Contrary to expectations that things would quiet down after the company posted a lawsuit notice, the malicious people were actively operating on overseas sites where lawsuits are not easy.

[Title: No matter how I look at it, Lee Dohee’s breasts are fabricated]

[Content]: Color difference in the armpit area of the swimsuit.

This becomes more apparent when you add contrast.

And the other members wear a lot of off-shoulder clothes, but Lee Dohee always wears clothes that cover her chest and shoulders? It’s a sexy concept, but she never shows her back.

The only times she shows it are in edited videos and photos.

And most importantly, there’s no way a Korean person can carry around breasts like that lol. If they were that size, she would never be able to dance like that, and she would have to live with a herniated disc and neck disc for the rest of her life.

Even if they’re real breasts, it’s 100% surgery!!

[Comments]:

• Ugh, are there still people like this… (Link) Take a look at this Lee Dohee’s pre-debut appearance
• What, they’re huge? Did she reduce the size? lol
• Practicing in a coin karaoke room is pathetic lol
• Shut up, hater!
• Guys, there’s evidence here too. (Link) This is a video of Lee Dohee applying to another agency and an interview video. YK Entertainment released it because they felt sorry for her
• What, her breasts are really huge?
• That’s right, she reduced them lol
• Ah, so that’s why they looked unnatural?
• There’s a female idol who reduces her breast size?
• Sigh, I really feel sorry for people like this
• .. 1 post 0 comments is science

 

My breast controversy was not directly clarified.

The Director lobbied other agencies to get the interview video, and someone shared a secretly filmed video of me dancing in a coin karaoke room in the old days, which changed the suspicion to breast reduction.

However, this strengthened the sexual bribery suspicion.

 

[Title: So that means the sexual bribery is true?]

[Content]: Doesn’t that mean one of the two is true? But if it’s true that she has big breasts, then the person in the black box video is Lee Dohee. Who wears a revealing dress like that at night?

And the timing is strange.

Originally, Serenia couldn’t appear on any broadcasts for unknown reasons, but how did they get the chance to appear on broadcasts as soon as they accepted Lee Dohee as a new member?

And why is MAC on bad terms with them?

In my opinion, there’s definitely something fishy going on.

[Comments]

• You’re just imagining things
• Isn’t she just meeting her boyfriend?
• Boyfriend vs. sexual bribery, both are a downfall…?
• You’ve written your own novel
• Leave them alone, they’re the ones who draw lines with their imaginations and claim it’s a uterus tattoo
• They’re getting so much hate because they’re doing so well
• It’s probably because of the kids’ dome concert lol. Serenia is doing what their idols can’t
• Yeah~ Your empty-empty concert~ Half empty~
• It’s almost sold out, you idiot lol
• When did you see half empty?
• I’m going to the concert because of you haters
• .. But why are they hating so much even though a lawsuit notice has been posted?
• The Halo Dome is like a dream concert for idols. They must be so jealous that it’s almost sold out
• It’s just inferiority

 

Unfortunately, the company failed in its initial response because it was the first time they had encountered such a situation, and the issue spread a lot. But at the same time, our concert was automatically promoted, and so many troublemakers were running rampant everywhere that people started buying concert tickets with a feeling of sympathy.

• I bought a concert ticket because of you troublemakers lol
• I was originally going to watch it comfortably online from my room, but I bought it
• Isn’t it more than 30% cheaper than other concerts?
• Wow, is it finally going to sell out?
• It’s not sold out yet, but it’s possible?
• If I go to the actual concert, can I see the original choreography of that song?

Even if dogs bark, the train goes on.

‘It’s coming to an end now. The success standard is 90%, so it’s practically achieved…’

It doesn’t matter what controversy there is now. Once the concert is over, I’ll be saying goodbye to this place.

‘Hoo… I feel uneasy…’

And February 21st.

One day before the concert.

I could have skipped everything until the concert, but I still participated in the last practice. Concert preparations were difficult, but they proceeded in a friendly atmosphere.

On the last day, we gather in the living room, spread out blankets, and sleep. Hyeri, who came into my blanket, is hugging my chest with a happy expression and sleeping comfortably.

Sua, Rain, Somi, Hyeri…

And my Serenia.

Tomorrow is the time to say goodbye. I’ve set up the final plan with the Director, and I just need to enjoy the last idol stage comfortably.

‘I told myself not to get too involved, but I got involved again…’

That’s how the last day arrived.
