People on the Peninsula: I Became a Lucky Koi

"Which company are you an artist with?"

Seeing the gaze that Kim Chan was casting, Bae Suzy, feeling bored, made a comment.

This statement was somewhat taken for granted, but it was in her subconscious.

The people in the conference room across the street were either representatives from various entertainment agencies or representatives from Mnet music programs under CJ, representing core platforms for the production and overseas distribution of K-pop content.

So, suddenly a boy appeared, sitting at the entrance of the conference room just like him, looking like he was waiting for someone?

There's a 99% chance it will be an artist from another agency.

"Perhaps a trainee?"

"model…"

Bae Suzy openly sized him up a few times. His handsome face, upon closer inspection, still seemed a bit immature, probably not even in his twenties.

A boy with this kind of looks and physique will definitely become famous once he debuts.

"artist?"

Jin Can smiled upon hearing this, "Ani~ I'm not a trainee, nor a model, I'm an ordinary person."

"Qinjia?" Bae Suzy's eyes widened in disbelief, her rabbit teeth sticking out in the air. "You're kidding, right?"

Jin Can glanced at her exaggerated expression and shrugged: "I wouldn't lie to strangers."

"Huh?" This answer surprised Bae Suzy, and she pursed her lips.

So you might lie to people you know?

Who is this person...? That's a difficult question to answer.

A moment of silence followed.

Jin Can didn't care much about the appearance of the useless keywords, even though Bae Suzy had become part of the play.

But he didn't care much.

Even if his relationship is exposed, what does it have to do with him?

Moreover, given Bae Suzy's current popularity, the exposure of her relationship is not a big deal, especially since the effect of the hashtag is mixed.

This is absolutely not a reason for [SM] bondage...

"..."

Bae Suzy concealed the surprise on her face after hearing Kakao's notification sound, "Ah Dou, Ah Dou~".

She took her phone out of her Gucci bag and swiped to unlock the screen.

Upon seeing the sender's message, Bae Suzy's lips subtly curled up for a moment, but she quickly suppressed it.

Her bright, white rabbit teeth bit her lower lip, leaving a faint tooth mark: "Hehe~"

"..." Jin Can heard the noise of her death and glanced at Bae Suzy.

Although the phones had privacy screen protectors, the two sat quite close together, with a space between them. Jin Can's tall figure tilted his head slightly, and he could see the somewhat blurry outlines, bright spots, and text on the screen.

It's not very clear, but the chat box's notes section shows: "[187cm, 70kg, Cancer]".

Interesting~

There's a market for it...

After replying to the message, Bae Suzy turned off her phone screen, ending her distracted thoughts.

But his behavior was very indecisive.

She narrowed her eyes with a smile, meeting Jin Can's calm gaze, and the thought of teasing the handsome man came to her.

"For ordinary people..." Bae Suzy immediately got into character, crossing her arms as if she were a talent scout, "Have you ever thought about debuting?"

Kim Chan paused for a moment, glancing at Bae Suzy's impromptu performance.

I can't help but feel a little sentimental...

She's better than Yoona.

"An Dui~"

"No!"

Kim Chan's gloomy mood eased a bit after Bae Suzy's performance.

He smiled faintly, his eyes crinkling into a smile, and refused three times in a row: "I don't want to..."

"So decisively rejected?" Bae Suzy raised an eyebrow.

Jin Can smiled and said, "Mm."

"You don't think debuting is easy, do you?"

Bae Suzy glanced at Kim Chan's expression with surprise; he didn't seem to care much about such things.

"That's not the reason," Jin Can shook his head.

"Why is that?"

This is a good question.

Kim Chan let out a breath and met Bae Suzy's curious eyes.

Before the appearance of the cheat system, he felt that being a parasite and vampire in the family wasn't so bad, and that's what his predecessor did.

Even if someone nails a thorn into my heart in the future, it doesn't matter.

But now, Jin Can is hesitant and conflicted, and hasn't thought about the future at all.

"..."

Seeing that he didn't explain why, Bae Suzy smiled, and then heard her phone beep again.

She glanced down at the message.

Like walking a dog, I casually typed a few words and replied, "Busy, can't chat now..."

Immediately after, Bae Suzy winked playfully at Kim Chan: "You still haven't told me your name? That's a bit rude~"

Online chatting is just wishful thinking, like trying to quench your thirst with plums.

Where else can you meet a handsome guy face-to-face and have a great conversation? She didn't really want anything to happen between her and Jin Can, but she was just taking a chance, a passive skill.

Besides, she's single. The person on the other end of the phone is 187cm tall, weighs 70kg, and is a Cancer. Born in 87, she's way too old.

The two are only in contact.

"Is that impolite?" Jin Can chuckled. "The name you use when you introduce yourself won't be noticed; it's the name you're asked for that will leave a lasting impression."

This absurd and fallacious argument surprised Bae Suzy somewhat, but her smile deepened: "So, what's your name?"

"This is the second time I've asked you this..." she added earnestly.

"My name is Chan."

Jin Can succinctly replied: "—Jin Can."

"Jin Chan..." Bae Suzy's eyes lit up, and she muttered his name, "It sounds nice~"

And so, the two, who were extremely pleasing to the eye to the government building staff, naturally started chatting and passing the time together.

...

...

An hour later, the meeting room door was pushed open.

Following that, presidents or representatives from mid-sized entertainment companies such as Cube, FNC, Starship, and Pledis walked out one by one.

Upon seeing Jin Can sitting directly opposite the door.

Their outstanding looks and charisma left the CEOs, who were focused on training boy and girl groups, stunned for a few seconds.

Bae Suzy was peering into the conference room, looking at her company president, Park Jin-young.

He thought to himself... why hasn't it come out yet?

If PDnim could really get this boy next to him to JYP, it would probably boost the image of the company's male idols by a lot, right?

The male idols from my own company are just unbearable to look at!

Jin Shitai sat in the main seat of the conference room and turned to look at his nephew across the door.

He waved, "Chan!"

"Come in."

After speaking, Kim Se-tae smiled and looked at the representatives of the three companies who had been left behind, explaining, "Regarding the development of Kpop this year... the meeting is adjourned."

"The following discussion is a private matter for our family."

Yang Xianshuo looked up: "Is he your older brother's child?"

As Yang Juhua spoke, Park Jin-young and Lee Soo-man suddenly remembered a boy from their distant memories.

Outside.

After hearing his second uncle's greeting, Jin Can slowly stood up.

Bae Suzy stared in surprise at his increasing height...

"Oh my~"

"!"

After exchanging names, Bae Suzy and Kim Chan became a little more familiar with each other, and she couldn't help but ask, "Kim Chan-ssi, how tall are you?"

It was a few centimeters taller than she had expected.

Kim Chan looked down at Bae Suzy sitting in the chair. "188.8cm."

"Bare feet?"

In recent years, Bae Suzy has focused her career on acting, and has come into contact with many male celebrities who have transitioned from models to actors.

Most are around 186.

But Bae Suzy is certain that their visual impact and body proportions are absolutely not as stunning as the golden light before her.

"Who would take into account height with shoes on?" Jin Can retorted.

After saying that, he turned and walked towards the conference room.

"Minister Kim."

Jin Can was a little embarrassed, unable to bring himself to call him "Second Uncle," and besides, he should use his job title when he was working!

He then turned to the presidents of the three major talent agencies, "Annyeonghaseyo, representatives."

The original owner had met these people once when she was a child.

But the impression is vague...

I gave a brief greeting.

After receiving permission from Kim Se-tae, Park Jin-young also called Bae Suzy in.

Since it's just a simple discussion, it's fine to let Suzy sit in.

When Bae Suzy entered, she was stunned to see Lee Soo-man and Yang Hyun-seok chatting casually with Kim Chan.

Now it's her turn to remain silent.

Silently sitting on a small chair against the wall, watching the comical scene unfold before my eyes.

After listening to their brief conversation, Bae Soo-ji realized that the handsome guy she had been chatting with was actually the nephew of Minister Kim, the current Minister of Culture, Sports and Tourism…

"Chan, when you were seven years old, I gave you a guitar."

Lee Soo-man adjusted his glasses and chuckled.

Although the youngest son of the Kim family grew up in the United States, as far as he knows, he was very interested in various musical instruments during his childhood.

"Uncle Li!" Jin Can vaguely remembered the gift—a dark wooden guitar. "It was a gift for me, and I've always treasured it at home."

It was hanging in the music room of his house in Hannam-dong...

Yang Hyun-suk exclaimed, "You've grown so tall!"

He must be at least 1.9 meters tall? But then he glanced at the smiling Kim Se-tae. Perhaps it was due to family genes, but the men in the Kim family were almost all very tall.

"I'm giving away concert tickets..." Yang Hyun-suk added.

Jin Can briefly pondered the fragments of memory, then looked as if he had remembered: "Uncle Liang!"

Bae Suzy stared at Yang Hyun-seok and Lee Soo-man's attitude with a look of astonishment, which shocked her somewhat.

"Chan..." Park Jin-young raised his head and reminded him expectantly, "What I gave him back then was—my sixth full-length album 'Game,' a collector's edition... with my autograph."

The person speaking now is not the CEO of JYP Entertainment, but solo artist JY Park!

Upon hearing this, Bae Suzy felt somewhat embarrassed Σ(°△°|||).

Kim Chan, the person involved, was amused by Park Jin-young's comical expression.

He then put on an honest expression and shook his head blankly: "I don't remember, Uncle Park..."

"...Don't you remember?" Park Jin-young was somewhat hurt, and his face twitched.

Bae Suzy felt equally embarrassed by Kim Chan's blunt words.

So embarrassing~PDnim's conspicuous bag.

"How could I not remember?" Jin Can suddenly changed his tune, laughing casually, "I've always treasured that album."

In fact, of the three gifts, he was most impressed by Park Jin-young's, and the reason was...

This old man's so-called "personal signature" is a true "personal signature." In addition to his handwritten signature, there is also a rough lip print, heavily wrinkled.

Ha ha…

Kim Se-tae smiled as he heard his nephew's slightly teasing tone.

Honestly, these kinds of jokes that stir up emotions are rather inappropriate.

It wasn't very kind... Kim Se-tae, who had felt his nephew was acting strangely the whole time in the car, was now completely relieved.

That's just right!

My own nephew...

Kim Chan's dissolute lifestyle and bad character in the United States were one of the reasons his family called him back to South Korea.

"Let's get down to business."
