Chapter 27

After Li Haoyan finally managed to persuade Li Xianjing, the next steps became much simpler, as in the entire DSP Entertainment, only Li Haoyan and Li Xianjing had the final say.

Sure enough, within less than ten minutes, the company's senior executives gathered in Li Haoyan's office.

"Recently, DSP's situation has been quite poor. Li Xianjing and I have thought and deliberated for a long time, and we have ultimately decided to debut Kim Yuban." Looking at the senior executives of DSP, Li Haoyan spoke calmly.

Li Haoyan's words did not elicit much reaction from the crowd. Everyone was a senior executive at DSP Entertainment, and they were not fools. They understood the difficulties the company faced and the only viable solution available.

Debuting Kim Yuban was one of the few options DSP Entertainment had. Although Kim Yuban was still young, it was a necessary step.

Moreover, they were just senior executives, not the final decision-makers. They had no authority to decide whether Kim Yuban should debut or not.

This was the only solution, and although it might be harsh for someone as young as Kim Yuban, what else could they do? The people present were more concerned about the company's condition and their own interests. In the context of the company and their own interests, Kim Yuban was not a significant factor.

Therefore, when they heard Li Haoyan's words, they did not react much, but they felt a bit sorry for Kim Yuban. Starting a career in the entertainment industry at such a young age, and in a foreign country, it was uncertain whether Kim Yuban could survive the fierce competition.

However, this thought was fleeting. They then recalled Kim Yuban's outstanding performance and achievements over the past year and felt relieved.

Although he was young, Kim Yuban was their ace, a unique talent in Korea and even the world. His youth would not hinder his success.

Seeing that everyone had no reaction, Li Haoyan nodded in satisfaction. Persuading Li Xianjing had been a great effort, and he did not want to have to persuade the company's senior executives as well.

"This is settled. Now, let's talk about Kim Yuban's situation. Choi Hyojeong, as the director of trainees, you go first!"

Hearing Li Haoyan's name, Choi Hyojeong shrugged casually and said calmly, "There's not much to say about Kim Yuban. His abilities are well-known to everyone. The only concern is his age, but I can say that Kim Yuban is far more mature than we imagined, even more so, almost like a little adult."

Choi Hyojeong's response also relieved Li Haoyan. He was never worried about Kim Yuban's abilities, but he was concerned about his youth and lack of social skills, which could be fatal for his career.

Perhaps knowing what Li Haoyan was worried about, Choi Hyojeong directly stated that Kim Yuban was very mature and did not need to worry about his social skills or offending seniors.

"Kim Yuban has no issues with vocal performance, and his singing techniques are perfect. What he needs to do now is maintain and quietly go through his voice change period." Facing Li Haoyan's inquiring gaze, Park Soo-kyung, the chief vocal teacher at DSP, naturally spoke up.

"There are no problems with dancing either. He will definitely be a future dance king. I believe that as long as Kim Yuban continues to practice and work hard, his achievements in dancing will not be described as a dance singer but as a professional dancer."

DSP's chief dance teacher, Yoo Myung-ho, couldn't help but sigh. Thinking about Kim Yuban's talent in dancing, Yoo Myung-ho was filled with admiration, truly a super genius.

Yoo Myung-ho's words made everyone pause, not expecting him to be so impressed by Kim Yuban's dancing skills. After all, a dance singer is still a singer, and no matter how well they dance, they can't compare to professional dancers.

But Yoo Myung-ho's statement about Kim Yuban's outstanding dance potential also shocked those who had not directly observed or understood Kim Yuban's dance skills.

"Kim Yuban is proficient in recording, album production, and supervision. He is almost a master, except for a bit of experience, he is not inferior to me." DSP's music producer, Cho Heok, added.

"Kim Yuban seems to be very sensitive to music and is also very interested in music creation. I suggest that in the future, we let Kim Yuban try creating music and producing his own album." Park Ji-ju continued to supplement.

Li Haoyan and Li Xianjing were very satisfied with the responses. As the highest decision-makers of DSP, they usually had no time to oversee Kim Yuban's training. They were not very clear about his abilities, potential, and how good he was.

Now, with the responses and recognition from these professionals, who were specifically responsible for teaching Kim Yuban, they were relieved and impressed by his talent.

Even Li Xianjing, who had been opposed to Kim Yuban's debut, became confident after hearing everyone's words. What did it matter that he was young? If he had no more room for growth, and everyone agreed that Kim Yuban could debut, then why hesitate?

At this moment, in the entire office, only the old man, Kim Ji-deok, was still leisurely resting with his eyes closed.

When it came to Kim Ji-deok, neither Li Haoyan nor Li Xianjing dared to treat him casually like they did with other senior executives. Instead, they had to be very cautious. If he was unhappy and said something outside, they would be in trouble.

Li Haoyan personally stood up, bowed, and asked softly, "Teacher, how is Kim Yuban's acting ability?"

Because he refused to admit his age, Kim Ji-deok did not allow others to call him "old man." Due to his long career as a teacher, he insisted that everyone call him "teacher." Therefore, Li Haoyan called him "teacher" instead of "senior" or "old man."

Opening his eyes slightly, he glanced at Li Haoyan, then thought about how every time Kim Yuban met him, he brought surprises and shocks. A slight smile appeared on his face as he said, "Yuban is the most talented student I have ever met in my life."

Kim Ji-deok's words were few, but just one sentence was enough for Li Haoyan.

Who was Kim Ji-deok? In the Korean teaching and entertainment industries, he was a legendary figure. Over the years, he had taught many students, and he had seen countless geniuses.

Just look at the top actors in the Korean entertainment industry; many were his students. Their abilities and talents were not inferior, or they would not have achieved their current status and success.

But even so, the old man still said that Kim Yuban was the most talented student he had ever met. This meant that Kim Yuban was stronger than the current top actors in the Korean entertainment industry, which was enough.

At least, as far as Li Haoyan knew, Kim Hee-sun and Ko Soo-young were Kim Ji-deok's students, and he had personally acknowledged them. Kim Ji-deok's statement that Kim Yuban was the most talented meant that Kim Yuban was more talented and stronger than Kim Hee-sun and Ko Soo-young, which was enough.
