Chapter 44

PS: Thank you for the support from Jiraiya and Bingpo Hu! At 2 PM tomorrow, I will be featured in my first text recommendation. I heard that passing requires 700 favorites! I failed the last trial recommendation! This time, I must give it my all! Haha! I bow to thank everyone who recommended and favorited me! One more thing, I'm going to sleep after I finish writing!

As Park Myung-soo quickly made a phone call and shouted excitedly after a while, Park Ji-ho really didn't expect Park Myung-soo to trust him so much. This should be considered unusual in Korea, as Koreans find it very hard to trust someone they just met. In the workplace, Koreans are generally suspicious of each other because Korean companies brainwash all employees into thinking that everyone around them is a competitor. If a stranger you just met gives you a piece of candy, it means they have a very good impression of you.

So, for Park Myung-soo to trust Park Ji-ho so much in such a short time, this is definitely unusual.

After about ten minutes, Park Myung-soo finished his call and walked over to Park Ji-ho, saying, "Ji-ho, I did everything as you asked. Thank you so much this time."

Park Ji-ho smiled and said, "You should thank yourself for trusting me so much."

Hearing Park Ji-ho's words, Park Myung-soo smiled and said, "I don't know why, maybe because you're a student at Seoul University, or maybe because you're the principal's student, but more importantly, when I see you, I just want to trust you. You're like my younger brother, always making me feel that you're worth my trust."

Park Myung-soo's words made Park Ji-ho laugh and say, "Alright, Myung-soo, from now on, you're my brother, and I'm your younger brother. How about that?"

"Sure... I'd be honored, younger brother!"

"Brother...!"

Smiling, Park Ji-ho and Park Myung-soo clinked their glasses together with a 'ding'!

...................................

Time passed quickly. Just as Park Ji-ho and Park Myung-soo were finishing their lunch, Park Ji-ho's phone suddenly rang. Apologizing, Park Ji-ho answered the call. It was from Kang Ji-young, who excitedly told Park Ji-ho that his song demo had been approved, and the company had notified him to come in the next day to sign a copyright transfer agreement.

Park Ji-ho was very surprised and happily agreed.

Seeing Park Ji-ho's joy, Park Myung-soo smiled and asked, "Ji-ho, is there some good news?"

Looking at Park Myung-soo, Park Ji-ho happily said, "Haha... Brother, a song I wrote has been chosen by DSP, and they want to buy the copyright."

"Really...?" Park Myung-soo exclaimed in surprise, "Ji-ho, you can write lyrics and compose music?"

Nodding, Park Ji-ho smiled and said, "I really want to enter the entertainment industry, but I just lack an opportunity. So, I decided to write some songs to build my reputation and hopefully attract an entertainment company to sign me and debut."

"Uh...!" Park Myung-soo was speechless and said, "Ji-ho, you're actually a genius. As your brother, I want to say something sincerely. A genius like you doesn't need to be an idol. You just need to focus on your studies. When you graduate, your future will be infinitely bright. Honestly, being an artist is glamorous on the surface, but it's very hard work behind the scenes."

Knowing that Park Myung-soo was treating him like a younger brother, even if not the closest, but still very well, considering they had only known each other for two hours, Park Ji-ho sincerely replied, "Myung-soo, I do have a reason, but I can't tell you."

"Oh...!" Park Myung-soo nodded and said, "Can I invite you to write a song for 'Infinite Challenge'?"

"Ah... 'Infinite Challenge' also needs a song?" Park Ji-ho was taken aback.

Then Park Myung-soo smiled and said, "Yes, since it's called 'Infinite Challenge,' we have to challenge everything!" Then he looked at Kim Tae-ho and said, "Tae-ho, I remember the Infinite Song Festival is coming up soon. How about I reserve Ji-ho as my lyricist and composer?"

Knowing that Park Myung-soo was really trying to help him, Park Ji-ho, who might not have known what 'Infinite Challenge' was before, now understood that it was a non-sports competition show that truly deserved the title of 'Korean Pride.' This show, once considered the 'dumbest idea,' stood out in the Korean variety show landscape, where the average lifespan of a show is less than two years. In the early game segments, artists were required to squat on the floor of a sauna and use towels to dry the water. "How silly, but while viewers mocked the artists, they also felt a sense of superiority, 'Even these fools are trying their best, so what about us?' That's the charm of this show." A former SBS producer, Yang Heun-sik, also revealed that if a Korean artist receives an invitation to appear on 'Infinite Challenge,' it is a great honor, and they must do everything possible to appear on the show.

Knowing the value of 'Infinite Challenge,' Park Ji-ho felt very warm when he heard Park Myung-soo's words. He really didn't expect such treatment from the other party. It was unreasonable, but he couldn't find any reason to think it was fake. The only truth was that the other party was sincere.

And Kim Tae-ho, who also admired Park Ji-ho, immediately said without hesitation, "Sure! No problem."

Seeing the two, Park Ji-ho stood up and bowed deeply.

Park Myung-soo and Kim Tae-ho laughed and said it wasn't necessary. After another twenty minutes, they took a certification photo, and Park Ji-ho's appearance on 'Infinite Challenge' officially ended. The certification photo was quickly uploaded to the 'Infinite Challenge' official website, and soon a large crowd flooded the website.

...................................

It was 8 PM. Park Ji-ho had already eaten dinner, taken a shower, and washed his clothes. He was sitting by the computer watching Park Ji-yeon's videos. He couldn't go a day without seeing his sister. Originally, Park Ji-ho wanted to call Jeon Bora and ask her to arrange a meeting with Park Ji-yeon, but unfortunately, it wasn't possible at the moment. They were shooting an MV and had no time.

This made Park Ji-ho speechless. Why was it so hard to meet his own sister? So, he could only watch his sister's videos to ease his longing.

However, just as he was engrossed in watching, his phone rang. As soon as he answered, Park Ji-ho hadn't even spoken when he heard Lin Yoon-a's voice: "Uncle, come and save me. A group of people outside are trying to force me to drink and get me drunk. My agent is already drunk, and now only you can save me."

Lin Yoon-a's voice was very small and panicked. Park Ji-ho immediately realized that she must feel in danger, otherwise, with her carefree personality, she wouldn't be so panicked. Without hesitation, Park Ji-ho said, "Tell me your location, I'll be there right away!"
