"You are going to do great! I believe in you! Don't worry about anything." Emma announced. Her best friend boosted Jisoo's confidence a lot.

"You are such an awesome friend." Jisoo started. "Even though I get in the company, will they even notice me? It will be like those cliche movies that the new person is just useless.

"Like I said," Emma put her hand on her shoulder. "Don't worry."

Next day, they both took a cab to the company building. It was right in the middle of the city, Seoul.

"After your interview, we really to explore more of Korea. We really didn't do much at all. Promise me that okay?"

"Okay!"

They got out of the cab and saw the building. It was bigger than they expected. Jisoo's confidence just dropped. They entered and it was very attractive.

"Hello, I have a interview with Kim Hae Soo?" Even talking to one of the people there was nerve-racking for Jisoo.

"Yes your appointment is 1:00. Please wait 10 mins."

10 mins after...

"Jisoo Park? Hae Soo is ready to interview you. She was just at a quick meeting. 10th floor please."
"Thank you very much. Emma you just wait here. Find something to do."

"Good luck!!!"

She got off the 10th floor and Ms. Kim's room was just there. Her heart started to beat 10x faster.

" Good afternoon! You must be Jisoo Park! If you don't know my name already, I'm Kim Hae Soo. Please sit down!"

Jisoo thought: She looks so young and very happy than I thought! Hope the rest is just like this!

"So I just want to get this interview over with because you look just like the type! First question, tell me everything, EVERYTHING about your music life."

"When I was very little, my parents would always turn on music every single day. I grew a little more and wanted to learn more about what music. I took piano, learned violin at school,and self taught myself how to play the guitar. That's when I knew that music wasn't just the instruments you play, it also means the dance culture, singing and rapping ,and producing."

"Great answer! Next question, why do you really want to work at CL Records. You can work at some other place, but why did you choose here?"

"I use to live in America and listened to so much American pop and all of their music videos and producing is like a pattern. I wanted to explore more different music so Korean pop-music was the best and CL Records is a wonderful way to start with!"

"Man, I LOVE your answers! This is one of the best interviews that went very smooth. That wraps up the interview. Now, if you have time, would you like me to show you around if you don't mind?"

"That would be amazing. I want learn and know more."

"Ok then let's start with the 3rd floor."

They hopped on the elevator and went down. 

"Here is where we do all our producing, as we can see, these people are working on a song right now. We have everything in our recording studio, high quality microphones and soundboards. You can rap or sing. Okay, let's move on!" They stopped at the 7th floor. 

"This is where we relax and hang out. You can have a quick bite or just sleep, but you have to keep up with your schedule though. Moving on to the 11th!"

" I'm pretty sure this floor will amaze you! You like dance?"

"Sure I do."

 Once they got off, Hae Soo opened the glass door and Jisoo's eyes widen. She saw many awesome dancers that were in sync. 

"This is our only and awesome choreographer, Jackson." 

"Hi! Nice to meet you! I hope to work with you someday!" Jackson smiled.

"Jackson, she isn't a trainee here, but if you want to?"

"Nah I'm fine." Jisoo looked around.

"One last question, it is okay if you can't, but can you sing/rap/ dance?" Hae Soo was very excited to ask this question. Jisoo Park looked like the one!

"I can't dance but I like singing and rapping!"

"Please go on. Sing/rap whatever you like."

Jisoo started singing the chorus of "We Don't Talk Anymore" by Charlie Puth. Everyone's faces were shocked. The expression and how she sang it very graceful, hitting those high notes with no imperfections. There was this one guy who was amazed by the moment she walked in. 

"ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!! I DON'T HAVE TO SAY ANY WORDS!!! PLEASE COME BACK TOMORROW!"

"Of course, thank you very much!"

Jisoo went down to the 1st floor and Emma was super thrilled to see her.

"Well did you get in??" Emma asked eagerly.

"Let's just say SHE FREAKING LOVED ME!"

"That's a celebration! Korean BBQ here we go!!" 

"That's a celebration! Korean BBQ here we go!!"

Both of the girls ate and shopped happily. Jisoo dreams were really coming true. 

The next day Jisoo and Emma went to CL Records and Hae Soo said that they can look around by themselves. They tried to look at every floor but it was just too much work, so they went up to the dance studio.

Jisoo and Emma got off of the elevator and right when Emma was about to grab that door handle, music started blasting. Jisoo tiptoed and saw only two people in there, Jackson and one of his dancers. Jisoo just shook it off and both went in.

"5-6-7-8...."Jackson yelled. "Right-left and slowly come down."

They were surprised how good they were. 

"Oh good morning Jisoo!! Yay you came back! Let's take a break."

"Yeah just looking what happens during a normal day. Sorry if I'm bothering you guys. This is my friend Emma."

"No no not at all. Hello nice to see you Emma. Both of you, meet one of my dancers, Jung Hoseok. He is one of my greatest dancers."

"Hello!" Hoseok did a little wave and started blushing.

"Hi!! You are awesome at dancing!"

"Thanks and you are awesome at singing!"

"Aww thanks..." They both started have this lovely gaze at each other.

"Hey." Jisoo wondered. "Jackson, why don't you show Emma around CL Records?"

"Yes please."He chimed in. "Show the snacks to her." Hoseok winked at Jisoo.

"Where are your snacks? Show them to me!" Emma pointed to him. Jackson got a little intimidated but lead her to the 7th floor. (relaxing & food floor)

While they were gone...

Jisoo sat on the floor, of course scrolling on her Instaspam until Hoseok started dancing to the music. She was astonished how special his dancing was. Music was hip hop, yet so smooth and supple. After, Jisoo was super happy for him that she clapped until her hands hurt. Hoseok was breathing heavily, but also proud because he was showing off to the girl he liked...
