05. Do you want to eat chicken?
[Episode 4 Behind the Scenes]
BTS watching the female protagonist organizing letters through the slightly open door
“What the heck, that’s my side???”
“Hey, be quiet!!! We’re watching you secretly right now.”
“What the heckㅠㅠㅠTaehyung is so cute.....”
“Phew......kekekekekeke”
“Oh my, what’s wrong with the manager liking it so much…?”
“Oh, you’re a fan of ours.”
“Hey, be quiet. What are you watching again??”
“Oh my gosh Yoongi ㅜㅜㅜㅜ How can you speak so beautifully”
“Puha ...
“Oh, what is it? I’m embarrassed….”
“What did you write, hyung?...”
"You'll find out later, okay, let's go in."
“Ah, make some noise.. Hehe..hmm!!!”
“When are we going to our accommodation?”

(Episode 4 Behind-the-Scenes Writing: Bang Mood)
"Oh, here's water. Here's a towel too!"
A bottle of water, a towel. I used both hands to hand out water and towels to the BTS members who had just finished their performance, along with a word of thanks.
BTS, who danced with such passion that sweat poured down their cheeks. Jungkook and Yoongi are leaning forward in their chairs, struggling to breathe.
"Are you okay? Is it really hard to breathe...? What should I do? Someone else has already taken the oxygen mask..."
He approaches Jungkook and Yoongi and crouches down in front of them, worried about them and fidgeting, and Jungkook, who is breathing heavily, waves his hand slightly.
"Haa... Gwae, it's okay... Please look after the other hyungs first."
"Manager, huh... what's our next schedule?"
Is there a problem with the schedule right now...?Even in the midst of this, I frowned at Yoongi, who was worried about his schedule, and then I brought a towel soaked in cold water and handed it to Yoongi.
Yoongi looked at the towel and then at me as if asking, "What is this?" I brought out another towel of the same size and handed it to Jungkook, saying to Yoongi.
"My next schedule is filming a chicken commercial. If I want to be photographed enjoying the meal, I need to rest thoroughly from now on, so quickly put that towel around my neck."
Yoongi blinked blankly for a moment at my words, then followed my instructions and placed the towel around his neck. At first, he flinched as if it was cold, but soon he felt a sense of relief and relaxed his breathing.
As I smiled in relief at the sight, Namjoon called out to me from behind in a loud voice. Next to me, Seokjin was washing his face, taking a moment to reflect.
"Manager!! Come to work for a moment!!"
"Huh? What's going on...."
"Haa... Namjoon, please..."
"Manager... what should I do about this...?"
It seems like BTS really are who they appear on camera. Well, at least Namjoon is.
I looked at the horribly broken microphone stand and thought about my future, and Namjoon was standing next to me like this, bowing his head and saying sorry.
"......How did it end up like this...?"
"I was thinking about taking a look at it because it was creaking a little when I used it on stage earlier, but..."
"...I did see your hand once. It was a bit big."
I nodded in agreement with Seokjin oppa's words, just enough so that Namjoon couldn't see, and Namjoon seemed to feel bad even apologizing to me, so he approached the staff, bowed his head, and began to apologize.
The staff's reactions to Namjoon's apology could be broadly divided into two categories. Some said, "If that's true, then so be it..." and others gave me a look that contained unspoken pressure, saying, "You're the manager, so you should handle it."
I ended up having to bow my head behind Namjoon and apologize, and after BTS's stage was cleared, I went to see him in person and paid the full price of the microphone stand with my corporate card.
It's a good thing I got the corporate card in advance.... What if I had used my own money instead of the corporate card... Ha, I don't even want to imagine it.
I quickly started the car for the next schedule, with some rather realistic concerns.

"Hoseok, you need to wake up now."
"Ugh... Sister, just 5 minutes..."
I gently shook Hoseok's arm to wake him up first, who was sitting closest to me. Hoseok pushed away my hand that was holding his arm and rolled over to lie on his side.
Hoseok... You're so cute and lovable like this... but you have to work right now...!!!!I woke up all of BTS members, including Hoseok, with great difficulty, shaking their arms while crying and eating mustard.
"Wh, what... Are we here already...?"
"Yes, I think it's time to get off now."
Jimin, barely able to open his eyes properly, asked, trembling. I smiled kindly at him and opened the car door for him.
As Jimin and Hoseok got out of the car, the rest of the group began to disembark, one after another. They all got out with the words, "I'm tired," written all over their faces.
"Oh, right. Manager, do you have time after our schedule is over today?"
"After your schedule, do you have time? Excuse me, can you please confirm if you have an appointment with the CEO..."
As I was hastily checking my schedule for today by taking out my phone at Seokjin oppa's words, Seokjin oppa looked at me and snickered.
"Not us, but the manager, no, the female lead."
"Huh? Me???"
"If you have time..."
Seokjin oppa avoids my gaze, rubbing the back of his head as if he feels a little awkward.
As if he had made up his mind, he lowered the hand that was sweeping the back of his head and slowly looked at me.
"How about eating chicken with us?"
