Trial Marriage Husband (Pangyo Couple version) Part II

Chapter 211: I Can Officially Boss You Around

"Plus, there are already a large number of anti-fans that are denouncing Sublime. The extreme ones are even attacking GK."

Changwook was silent for a couple of seconds. Everyone assumed he was surprised by this outcome. But then he suddenly replied. "10 AM tomorrow, GK will hold an official contract signing ceremony for Cha Jooeun. She will be present at that time. Anti-fans and reporters, if you have any evidence, feel free to bring them and present it to everyone. We can see if Cha Jooeun has really committed murder, whether she has broken a promise and whether all the rubbish you guys speak of is true."

"GK Entertainment is not Sublime Artist Agency. We don't run our business based on vagueness. Indecent activity does not exist here. And of course, we won't allow our artists to suffer humiliation innocently. Since Cha Jooeun has already signed with GK, we will definitely be open and transparent about everything. Here I call upon all the reporters to be on time tomorrow. When the time comes, I have even bigger news to reveal!"

Changwook firmly expressed GK's views and powerfully pulled Cha Jooeun into their territory. As long as it was an artist of GK, they would never give up on them nor abandon them. There was no way they'd be like Sublime and get rid of someone as soon as anything got stirred up. This show of power once again threw a fierce face-slap on Sublime's management and PR. The reporters at the scene could clearly sense that GK's protection of Cha Jooeun was not merely empty words.

The netizens continued to scold Cha Jooeun, but the intensity decreased. Many people doubted GK, but as soon as they thought about their idol or favorite TV personality and the fact that they came from GK, they would subconsciously end up trusting GK and Cha Jooeun.

As for Sublime Artist Agency, they were currently an outcast in the industry. They were much too embarrassing. Although, competition and fighting were common amongst entertainment agencies, to be slapped in the face by GK within 10 minutes, was not something that happened often. Hence, Sublime Artist Agency became the biggest joke in the industry. A bored fan even turned Bohyun's expression into a set of emojis to express his emotions towards entertainment news.

As for the staff at Sublime, because of the fear induced by offending GK, they slowly started placing their resignation letters on Yeji's desk – one after another. Although Sublime hadn't completely fallen apart, they still suffered a serious blow. Compared to Yeji's recent headliner, this incident was much more serious.

At this time, only the anti-fans continued to stand up against Cha Jooeun. Now that they had a chance to release their accumulated anger, there was no way they would hold back just because she signed with GK.

"I wonder what disgusting methods Cha Jooeun used to sign with GK. This annoying cheap model treats other's lives like dirt. By changing agencies, she is merely concealing her shame under a bigger leaf."

"I once thought GK was undeniably pure and clean, but it seems, they too are heading downhill? Otherwise, why would they sign someone like Cha Jooeun?"

"Without us fans, I wonder how much GK's shares would drop."

"Apparently, there will be a big revelation tomorrow. Let's wait and see how GK tries to clean up after Cha Jooeun."

Meanwhile, Jooeun was sitting beside Jeonghwan as she browsed the news. As soon as she saw her name and GK's name being scolded by anti-fans in the same sentence, she lifted her head to look at the man beside her, giving off a sense of guilt.

Jeonghwan did not turn his head nor look into Jooeun's eyes, but he knew what she was thinking. "You can't possibly believe this is all GK has, right? Tomorrow, all you need to do is dress nicely and make an appearance. Everything else, Changwook will handle."

"You still haven't told me who will be my manager?" Jooeun put down her laptop and slightly leaned towards Jeonghwan.

"The higher-ups are still discussing it." Jeonghwan replied calmly. "What? You don't trust me?"

"I'm a little afraid." Jooeun responded honestly.

Although she prepared herself mentally in advance, she still did not feel confident about joining GK. Especially when she thought about her and Jeonghwan's relationship possibly being revealed one day. What would the people at GK think? What would the public think?

Hearing her say she was afraid, Jeonghwan stopped what he was doing and looked into her eyes. "I never thought I'd still hear the word 'afraid' coming from your mouth. But think about it, just because you are joining GK, does that mean you are no longer a model? And will you no longer be Cha Jooeun?"

Jooeun lowered her head and thought for a moment. As she lifted her head to respond, her face flushed red. "Does that mean from now on, you can boss me around?"

Seeing this, the corners of Jeonghwan's lips slightly curved upwards. His happiness came from his heart. "I finally have an excuse to officially boss you around."

"You can't go easy on me."

Jeonghwan nodded. "I will be extra strict with you because I know you like to prove yourself worthy. So are you rest assured to sign the contract now?"

Taejoo smiled handsomely as he stood behind the couple. He enjoyed seeing them work together side by side.

Meanwhile sitting on the side, Minjung sneakily glanced at Taejoo every now and then. Seeing the silly look on his face as he smiled at Jeonghwan and Jooeun, she felt her mood being uplifted. She liked that silly look of his. Perhaps Taejoo sensed the fiery passion coming from Minjung's eyes, he lifted his head curiously. However, Minjung immediately looking away. She pretended like nothing happened as she read the news on her phone.

Regardless, the topic of GK signing Cha Jooeun completely stirred up the industry. Especially when attending events, GK's artists would always get asked about their thoughts regarding Cha Jooeun or their thoughts regarding GK's actions.

The majority of GK's people responded with a smile as they expressed their views.

"Cha Jooeun has a bad attitude? I'm not sure about that. We at GK never sign anyone with personality problems. So if my fans trust me, then please trust my agency."

"Oh, Cha Jooeun. I love her performances on the runway, especially her long legs. Now that we are 'brothers and sisters' of the same company we will get the chance to come across each other often. I'm looking forward to it!"

"In private I've asked my manager multiple times to let me go watch her shows. I'm speechless as why the agency took so long to sign her. They were too slow!" 

"I'm so happy that Cha Jooeun is joining our family. Let's applaud this great news."

At various events, GK's artists expressed their anticipation for Cha Jooeun's addition to the agency. It was clear that the staff at GK were extremely united. They were all well aware of their standpoint and were confident. Even if Cha Jooeun was technically their competitor, they weren't petty about it.

"I hope the agency can clear Cha Jooeun's name soon. I trust the agency, so I also trust her."

"What's with the anti-fans? I hate them the most. I can't wait for the agency to present everyone with evidence. I'm looking forward to the contract signing ceremony tomorrow!"
