章 51: Promotions
"Are you sure about this concept?"
Byun Minho asked JYP as he looked at him, he was nervous since he was the production and concept head at the same time but as NNET had told them JYP or Hyun-suk would always have the say.
"Yes."
"But this concept isn't it a bit outdated? If we look at how Junho, Woo-Jin and Hwang Yoo handled Junho's concepts I got to say it feels like truly the next gen instead of this whatever you call streetwear american concept."
"We're facing M.S. I want to make a statement that 'Wings' is better than 'X.O' and we can only go this route."
"So you want people to compare the two?"
"That's the point."
"Shouldn't we capitalize on Junho's popularity instead? He already has established his concept which is unique in this current age, a James Bond-esque type, now he's associated with it and fans love it"
"I know, he has his own concept I won't take it away from him since he's already established himself but this is a group concept and I get to have a say this time."
"If you say so, since they'll only have two albums I hope you take my suggestions into consideration for the second album."
Minho stood up and quietly left as he knew he was a stubborn man once he decided things and he was just a concept head that could be replaced.
"I'll call the staff to prepare for tomorrow shoots and concept now."
-
"And There!"
Junho had finished his rounds of promotion, their current concept was streetwear hip hop fashion, after this they would wear their 'NEXT' uniforms.
"Hyung how do you do it? I look like a dork or a kid."
Sungjae went near Junho as it was his turn next, to his surprise Junho just patted his head and gave him a thumbs up.
"You can do it."
Junho pushed Sungjae forward, he then looked at Mingyu who gave him a wry smile.
"You too Mingyu line up after him!"
"Yes Hyung!"
Junho nodded and then went to Jinyoung and Daniel who were looking at their pictures, but as he went there surprisingly they were watching a stage instead.
"What are you guys watching?"
"Oh it's just X.O's stage, they're the first to debut in the third generation after all plus their concepts are pretty much kinda cool I won't lie."
"Yeah super powers and all."
"Well I'm quite satisfied with the concept of being Heralds of the new generation it has a nice ring to it."
"It does sound better than having powers."
-
"Hey Suzi how was Junho?"
Chung-ha asked Suzi as they were done with their shoots.
"You make it sound weird, but all in all he's better I mean how can you make a song within two days and the choreography within the same amount of time? I wonder how he does it."
"I mean he has two top three songs in a span of a single week then another one at the top ten, but since both of you are collaborating."
"I don't want to Jinx it Chung-ha."
"So?"
"He's good at rapping but from what I've heard he's even better at singing, he gave me all the vocal parts and he took all the rapping and I don't know if he's considerate or if the song was supposed to be sung that way."
"Say do you have a copy?"
"Yeah but not now you guys will see in the final rehearsal!"
As the two were conversing the girls had finished their shots and so did the boys soon Byun Minho called their attention.
"Alright everyone get dressed again since we're going to shoot a lot until probably late at night as it depends on how good you are."
The group nodded his swords soon he pointed and called out Junho and Suzi
"You two, come here and take a photo, you two are the leaders and both of you have a song so it's only right that the two of you have your own unique photoshoot."
The two of them looked at each other, they both nodded at the same time.
"Great come with me."

"Do we need to go the stylist?"
Byun Minho looked at them and shook his head, he did this out of his volition and didn't ask JYP.
"No, just do what I say and it'll be fine."
He somehow had a feeling that he had to do this at least once.
"Seung-ho, take their pictures according to my instructions for the first few shot."
Minho told Seung-ho the photographer who nodded.
"Get them a chair"
The staff followed what he wanted and soon a chair was placed at the center.
"Alright, I hope you two have some kind of chemistry or the very least aren't awkward with each other."
"We're good friends if that counts"
"It'll be enough, now let's start with you two."
The shoots began and both Junho and Suzi got absorbed. Byun Minho was a good director they both admitted even they liked his ideas.
As they were shooting their respective groups were looking at them amazed at how they had chemistry even though the two rarely met aside from practicing.
"I think that's enough looking and we should get ready for our next shoot shall we?"
Jinyoung tapped the shoulders of Mingyu, Daniel and Sungjae, they nodded and followed Jinyoung as they went to the stylist.
"I think we should do the same"
Chung-ha told the same to Jisoo, Jennie and Yu-na.
-
"Ah This should be enough content for the Fan Cafe"
Woo-Jin who had nothing else to do after forwarding the documents to JYP and escorting Hyeri earlier was sitting back at Junho's home.
Shortly after he posted Junho's behind the scene's picture of today's photoshoot in which he asked a colleague the post immediately gained traction.
He then posted a cryptic message and posted a face mask picture of TV cosmetics saying.
'I feel fresh after using this'
Some caught on but didn't say anything as they thought it could just be some old man rambling but they took note.
"Now what am I gonna do, I'm jobless for about a year"
Woo-Jin looked at the roof and sighed wondering what he could do.

A/N : I couldn't log in WN yesterday and I used my phone which I hate to use in writing.
Since there's an issue with the log in prompt in PC for about two to three more days I'll be taking a break and stockpile some chapters and clear my burnout from writing everyday.
Next chapter would probably back around 3-5 days till then I'll clear my head like I said to try and get some freshness back. Thanks for reading this far.
