"Internet pictures don't do him justice at all. Just look at his face."
"Look, he and Yeji. This was the first time Yeji was spotted with a guy, they looked good together."
"I didn't know Yeji is one of Neo's girlfriends."
"They look good together. If this photo gets uploaded, Neo will become the public enemy of Korea. He was already the enemy of many men in the US"
"Come, sir. Sit with us at the front," JYP said as he led us to the table with Itzy. After that, JYP walked to the front and began speaking.
"Good evening, everyone. Thank you for attending this event. I promise this won't take long. I want to announce that Johnson & Johnson, a leading pharmaceutical company, has chosen Itzy as the sole ambassadors for a groundbreaking new medicine. This medicine has the potential to dominate, no, let me correct it. This medicine will dominate the market and could even serve as a catalyst for further studies to discover new cures," JYP said with an excited tone.
"Here's another piece of information: This endorsement was completely unnecessary for Johnson & Johnson, but through the influence of one individual, they decided to select ITZY as their representative. Additionally, we will be discussing potential endorsements with Sir Neo Gray," JYP continued. His speech went on for what felt like too long, making it hard to stay focused.
"Hello, sir. I'm the representative from Johnson & Johnson. Mr. Joaquin sent me here to discuss the agreement with JYP. He also mentioned that if I saw you at today's event, you would be the one to decide how much we are willing to offer them for endorsing the medicine," Someone from the next table stood up and approached me.
"Hmm? So, Joaquin sent you here? How did he know I would be here? And what's your name?" I asked him.
"I'm Brian; you can call me Brian, sir. As for how he knew you would be here, the JYP director informed Mr. Joaquin that you would also be discussing an endorsement with them," Brian replied.
"Okay, leave it to me," I said. Our conversation drew the attention of many people. Despite JYP's ongoing speech, their interest was now focused on what Brian and I were discussing.
