40 What's Next?

Junho was back at his home after three months they were given a month's rest before their activities would start but he only had a week of rest.

"You look like you didn't enjoy it."

Woo-Jin came and opened the door, as his nanny he came over here to check up on him.

"You know that I still have to go on NNet's shows and shoot music video's"

"Speaking of that JYP has given me a contract here, it's the same as your Idol contract, you earn 30% and he earns 70% domestically, internationally its vice versa, as for your concert sales you're gonna earn 80% while he earns 20%."

"Alright"

"It runs for seven years."

"Termination fee."

Lee Woo-Jin smiled and said.

"2 Billion Won and You can't sign with any current agency for a year, unless."

"I set up my own? Is it legal?"

"I've talked with some of my lawyer friends it does say that if by the time you terminate your contract you can't sign with any 'current' available agencies out there such as M.S. or Galaxy but if you were to say setup your own studio then yeah probably."

"Let's not think about that right now, I've just started but can you tell me the nuances of NNET's contract with JYP?"

"Sure, as you know if there were any agencies other than Pegasus who debuted under NEXT then they would split the profit equally of course since everyone under NEXT is from Pegasus then NNET and Pegasus are the only ones splitting the profit."

"So it makes sense that JYP can do what he wants with us right?"

"Yeah, as far as I know I don't know if he will rebrand you guys in the future but I doubt he'll touch the core group since you're all under contract with NNET for a year."

"There isn't anything I can do here, Choo-hyun won't come home till later, Jihyun is going out with her friends for a week, Mom and Dad bought another house for their own and I'm stuck with you."

"Then let's go to the agency, I'm sure everyone there is hard at work learning your choreography do I doubt they haven't until now since JYP instructed them to learn it."

Junho immediately changed his clothes as Woo-Jin got the signal, soon the two of them went to Pegasus.

-

As Junho entered the Agency's doors he was greeted by the staff contrary to when he first arrived, none of them knew him but know they did, nonetheless he still treated them the same way before, he politely replied them and smiled.

He then went straight to the dance studio as usual, as he went there he found a new studio, with the logo 'NEXT' on it, he wondered why, out of curiosity he took a look and saw it was a new and more spacious than, it even had the 'NEXT' logo.

"It's big."

"It sure is"

Woo-Jin came up to him as he also liked the new dance studio, it was state of the art and everything here was because of NEXT and especially Junho but he nor JYP would say that since there was a non disclosure agreement between them and the investors.

They didn't want to let his head get big but it didn't matter to them as they knew his personality well.

"What's with that closet?"

Junho out of curiosity entered the opened the closet as he hasn't heard of a dance studio with a closet as big as he had seen as soon as he entered.

"Is this a trophy room!?"

"Call it cocky if you want, I call it motivation."

"It's both."

"See"

They both knew it, somehow even Junho wanted to fill the trophy room and it did its purpose, to provide a sense of direction of what the group wanted, to be successful.

"Come on, I told Mia Kim that you'd be arriving wouldn't want to disappoint your Sunbae slash fans wouldn't you?"

Junho nodded and left the room reluctantly, he then followed Woo-Jin to the dance room, he knew that sooner or later he would come back here to practice with everyone for his upcoming music show appearances.

As Junho followed Woo-Jin the once familiar hallways now somewhat felt unfamiliar, as if something had changed but he knew that he shouldn't mind it, though his status has changed from trainee to a rising star he held a firm belief to not forget where he came from and that was in this room.

"After you big shot."

"Eh"

Junho slowly opened the door and peeked with his head, no one had arrived yet, he saw familiar faces like Seojeong and Jihyo although they were only acquainted, he even saw Dahyun and Jeongyeon he had thought they had probably just joined.

"Excuse me, are you gonna go in?"

Junho looked at where the voice came from, he wasn't starstruck but he knew who she was, it was Jeon Somi.

"Ah after you, I'm just waiting for Mia Kim."

"Okay."

Woo-Jin just laughed.

"I guess you're not just famous yet."

"She was probably someone who had just joined the agency"

"Probably."

Soon the two felt someone tap their shoulders.

"Are you two gonna stop peeking like hunters or no?"

"Long time no see Noona"

"Congrats on the win Junho, looks like I didn't train you for nothing, I did like 'Really Really's' choreography."

"Thanks, because of you I got better."

"So what brings you two here? Oh right, come right in I was just about to announce it to them that I'll be taking six trainee's along to dance in at least one music show or in the music video I hope you don't mind."

"I don't, take trainee's as much as you can it's better for them to experience it early on."

"See this is why almost everyone voted for you well time to put you to the test."

"What?"

"Let's dance 'Really Really' and 'Everyday' together since both of them are going to be shot right?"

"Sure."

"I'll pick four trainee's you choose the two."

"No, you choose all of them, I don't wanna make it look like I favor the other"

"Alright if you say so."

Shortly Mia Kim opened the door and Junho followed, Junho as usual just waved and smiled at them, some were gasping and as some of them were new the others just smiled at Junho.

"Hello everyone today we're going to do an impromptu competition, mind telling them what it was Junho?"

"We're going to pick the six best trainee's today who danced it to perfection, not only will you be included in the Music Video but I will also upload a dance cover in my chanel."

Junho smiled towards them, the trainee's in front of him and Mia were suddenly excited for them to be part of a music video was giving them a huge step towards their career and also letting the others see their talents.

"Ah right, there will be either a total of twelve trainee's chosen or the six, it actually depends on how you perform on the song, I'll be the one choosing the final trainee's Junho is just here to show you how to dance along with me."

"You make it sound like I wasn't under you."

"Nonsense, It just shows how you've grown."

Junho just smiled as Mia nodded and went to play the music.

"Care to do a live performance for them?"

"Sure."
