Chapter 605: VVIP Fashion Show (1)
The electronic document Seo Yoon-Ji showed me on the tablet contained details about providing me with a massive amount of financial support.
[Sponsorship Agreement]
-Yeon Hwa-Seon will sponsor the tentatively named 'Global Idol Girl Group' that Seo Hee-Joo will be part of.
-The sponsorship amount is set at a maximum of five billion won over three years, but may increase through separate agreements.
-All decisions regarding the use of sponsorship funds are delegated to 'Jung Yoon-Ho of Hoop Entertainment.'
...
Not only was Yeon Hwa-Seon Seo Hee-Joo's mother and a National Intangible Cultural Heritage holder in Korean dance, but she was also a wealthy woman who owned land and large buildings in Gangnam. And she was currently offering to sponsor the group her daughter would be in.
I now had another powerful supporter besides Wang Long.
However, receiving sponsorship not from the company but from a celebrity's parents could cause issues down the line. For instance, they might later demand her daughter be the center or appear more frequently on shows because they had sponsored the group.
Given Yeon Hwa-Seon's personality, that seemed unlikely. But since it could still create misunderstandings with future new members, I had no choice but to decline.
"I'm sorry. I truly appreciate the offer, but I don't think we'll need the additional funding."
Seo Yoon-Ji smiled gently. "If you're worried she might interfere, please check the last clause here."
