Kidnap a superstar for a romance

Just when Xu Yisong decided to find time to have her friends around her do some psychological testing after returning, she saw a familiar figure in the psychology department.

"Sulli?" Although the person in front of him was wrapped tightly, Xu Yisong still recognized her as the sister he met at Kim Jong-hyun's birthday party last time.

Choi Sulli didn't expect to hear someone calling her name in the hospital. She hid subconsciously for a moment, then looked up and found that it was a senior she knew. She pulled her mask a little awkwardly and called out, "Isong-unnie."

Xu Yisong sat down next to her and originally wanted to ask her why she was here, but suddenly remembered the news he had seen some time ago and chose to remain silent.

Half a month ago, SM Entertainment announced that Choi Sulli was in a relationship with a hip-hop singer, and soon after, Sulli's various activities were suspended due to illness. Even though Xu Yisong didn't pay much attention to the news online, he inevitably saw all kinds of negative articles about Choi Sulli, and it seemed that her company didn't want to deal with it.

Xu Yisong saw the attitude of her company and knew that Choi Sulli was not just suspended from public activities due to health reasons, but was more likely to be hidden. Ignoring the negative information and abuse is just a common means of suppression by entertainment companies.

Most entertainment companies will choose to use such means to suppress their artists when they are not obedient. Artists have been carrying a contract like a selling contract since their trainee period. They accept the company's training and packaging, and then debut with the company's resources.

It also means that one's freedom is completely controlled by the company. Most artists cannot afford the high termination fee if their contract has not expired. Once they do something that displeases the company, being hidden away becomes the simplest and crudest solution.

The negative information and press releases on the Internet will also become another means of teaching artists a lesson.

The purpose is simply to tell disobedient artists this way: this is the outcome of going against the company.

Xu Yisong and Choi Sulli are not close friends, and he did not comment much on her love affairs. After all, he is Jong Hyun's friend and junior, so Xu Yisong still chose to take care of him.

She didn't say anything about the company or the online news. She just handed her a hospital doctor's business card and said softly, "If you encounter any problems, you can just tell me my name or send me a message directly." They had added each other's contact information before.

Facing the pair of tired eyes, Xu Yisong inexplicably recalled the things of his previous life. He couldn't help but reach out and touch the girl's head, saying softly: "Shirley, life is still long, nothing is impossible."

At this time, Choi Sulli's agent came back, and Xu Yisong withdrew his hand and left.

The manager only saw Xu Yisong's back and didn't recognize who she was. She asked Cui Xueli: "Who were you talking to just now?"

For some reason, Choi Sulli hid the business card in her hand and did not tell her agent that the person just now was Xu Yisong.

The agent didn't really want to know who it was. After seeing that it wasn't an important person, he turned around and said to Choi Sulli in a serious tone: "Sulli, you are really too willful this time. The company..."

Choi Sulli did not say a word in the face of her agent's preaching until the nurse came out and asked Choi Sulli to go in, then the agent stopped talking.

The manager who was about to go in with Choi Sulli was stopped outside the door by the nurse with a smile on her face: "Please wait outside for a moment."

The agent frowned somewhat dissatisfiedly but ultimately said nothing.

When Choi Sulli entered, a friendly female doctor was sitting at her desk waiting for her. Choi Sulli didn't really want to talk, because what she said now would be passed on to her agent and then to the company, so it would be better not to say anything at the beginning.

But what Choi Sulli didn't expect was that the female doctor spoke first: "You can rest assured that the content of today's psychological consultation will not be known to anyone except the two of us."

Cui Xueli looked at the doctor in surprise, but the doctor just smiled and said nothing more.

In Korea, many artists are reluctant to see a doctor even if their mental health problems are very serious because they have no privacy with doctors. Many hospitals do not abide by the principle of confidentiality due to company reasons. Many of the things they talk about with psychologists will be known by their agents and companies.

This has become an unspoken rule in the Korean entertainment industry.

Xu Yisong knew about this situation, so she called the doctor after leaving. She didn't say anything else, just mentioned that Choi Sulli was her friend and the doctor knew what to do.

The first thing Xu Yisong did after returning was to hold a meeting on employee mental health for each department of the company. The situation of ordinary employees was not so bad, but the situation was serious in the artist department.

Because Xu Yisong was directly in charge of the artist department, she first held a meeting with the agent, and then called the artists with more serious problems to the office for individual talks.

She can't control how other companies do it, and she has never worked in Korea before. But this is her company, and she has the final say. She doesn't want the company's artists to have problems before they become popular. Other companies may think that the company has too many trainees, and if the artists or trainees are disobedient or useless, they can just replace them.

But these people in her company were all carefully selected by her, and each one of them was her treasure. She would be heartbroken if any of them had any problems.

What Xu Yisong didn’t expect was that among these people with serious mental problems, there was no Qi Su, whom she was most worried about, but there was Jin Shumin, whom she was most trusted.

Among the five members of Blue Whale, the one who makes her feel most at ease is the team leader, Kim Seo-min. As the team leader, he is serious and responsible, and his mentality has always been the most stable one in the team. Although he is not the oldest, he is the most reliable one in the team. Whether it is stage performance or communication as the face of the team at activities, he does a very good job, confident and generous, and there is no problem.

Unexpectedly, this guy gave her a big surprise during this physical examination.

Xu Yisong couldn't believe it when the doctor told her that Jin Shumin had been suffering from anxiety and insomnia for a long time. She looked at the boy sitting next to her with a gentle and natural expression, and she couldn't connect the things on the diagnosis sheet with him.

"Shumin, how long have you been experiencing this symptom?"

However, Jin Shumin, the patient, remained calm and said, "President, don't worry. It's been a year or two. I'm used to it. It's not something that happened after I came to the company."

Xu Yisong didn't know how he could say such a thing so calmly. He was only nineteen years old, not even an adult according to Korean standards.

One or two years, he was only 17 years old at that time. How could he suffer from anxiety disorder?

Jin Shumin didn't lie, his symptoms were not caused by the company. His stress may have come from the company before, but since he joined FYH, this part of the pressure has been very little, but the pressure outside of work still weighs on him, making him breathless.

That's pressure from family.

Compared to the others in the team, Jin Shumin had the worst family background. He was able to join the original company as a trainee only because of his good looks. Before joining the company, he had never studied vocal music or dancing, and he didn't have any skills that were related to being an artist. However, he finally became the captain of Blue Whale as the top trainee.
