Rather owe money than owe favors

  Although Yoon Hyun's filming schedule wasn't until tonight, he didn't have nothing to do this afternoon either.

  MBC invited him to go to the TV station to discuss some matters.

  As for what exactly wasn't said clearly, but the invitation was sent by the head of MBC's Arts and Entertainment department, so it's probably related to a variety show.

  Since Yoon Hyun stopped appearing on all variety shows in March, there have been calls for him to return to the entertainment industry. Yoon Hyun himself has always had a relatively calm attitude towards this, and the three major TV stations have sent out invitations to him. SBS even offered an appearance fee of 80 million won per episode, inviting him to appear on the Sunday variety show "Running Man" with Liu Zaishi. To put it into perspective, Yoon Hyun has only received a group award at the MBC Entertainment Awards as a member of "Infinite Challenge", and aside from that, he hasn't received any notable awards at the three major stations' entertainment awards.

  The three major broadcasting stations' attitude towards Yoon Hyun is the most difficult to understand, and it's actually MBC. Perhaps because the current online "Tong Yi" is Yoon Hyun's only fixed schedule. In addition, due to the connection with "Infinite Challenge", MBC has always thought that Yoon Hyun's next variety show will also be on MBC.

  But SBS's arrogant and wealthy attitude made MBC a bit restless.

  "Running Man" can be considered as SBS's program to win back the dignity of the former variety show king "X-Man". Apart from Yoo Jae-suk, Ha-ha, Kim Jong-kook and Ji Suk-jin, who are the four evergreen trees in the variety show industry, they also invited a few newcomers. Among them, the price offered to Yoo Jae-suk, the absolute main MC, was so high that it made the staff at MBC's Art Bureau dizzy. Now, they have offered almost the same price to Yun Hyung, which makes MBC unable to sit still anymore.

  Finally. Through the "Tong Yi" drama team, MBC conveyed a signal to Yoon Hyun that they wanted to "talk".

  Yoon Hyun was no fool and immediately understood what it meant.

  In fact, SBS's offer price really moved Yoon Hyun a little.

  It's not about the money, just like how he promised to give JYP and write songs, it's a form of recognition. Liu Zai Shi's salary is 80 million, what concept is this? This means that from the perspective of the TV station, apart from Jiang Hu Dong and Liu Zai Shi, his worth has already surpassed Jin Ze Dong who is gradually fading out of people's sight and Park Myung Soo who has been rising rapidly in the past two years, becoming the undisputed third host.

  It's a great honor.

  However, Yoon Hyun did not respond.

  The reason is that the name "Running Man" is a bit of a dilemma for Yoon Hyun.

  He is really afraid of encountering another program like "1 Night 2 Days" or "Infinite Challenge".

  Although I was happy during the recording of "Infinite Challenge" and always had an attitude of enjoying life while recording, however...

  Tired is tired. No matter how happy you are, tired is still tired!

  So when he successfully jumped out of the pit of "Infinite Challenge" with the return of haha, he really didn't think about falling into another outdoor reality show pit.

  However, Yoo Jae-suk, Ji Suk-jin and Ha-ha had already separately contacted Yun Hyun privately to invite him to join, which added a bit more pressure on Yun Hyun.

  Although the program has already recorded two episodes and is about to air its first episode, Yoon Hyun decided to wait and see what kind of shape the show would eventually take before deciding whether or not to participate.

  But in fact, he is just pretending. Now he still often dreams of the old things when he participated in the recording of Infinite Challenge...

  If there's another Kim Joo-hyun-like character who appears like she did back then, give him a push. He might really make it.

  Kim Jiwon is now fully devoted to IU's career and has no time to deal with the arrogant Yoon Hyun. Moreover, even if she were free and bored, it would not be her place to interfere with Yoon Hyun's schedule...

  She and herself are eight characters in conflict, but with IU, they can be said to be emotionally compatible, truly treating IU as a younger sister. Therefore, Yoon Hyun thought that letting her become IU's full-time agent would be a good decision for both of them.

  As for Yoon Hyun's mood today, it can only be said that he is preparing for both possibilities. He just came to MBC to hear their attitude towards him.

  As for the three major broadcasting stations, KBS? In the previous episode with a surprisingly high rating, even breaking 20% at the moment when Yoon Hyun fell into the water in "Youth Over Flowers", KBS also moved to try to bring Yoon Hyun under their wing again. However, they went off track again... They saw Yoon Hyun's outstanding ability as an outdoor real variety show MC in this episode, so they actually invited Yoon Hyun to join "2 Days & 1 Night"!

  Just for this, Yoon Hyun-woo swore that he would absolutely never appear on any KBS variety shows!

  So after leaving KBS, Yoon Hyun went directly to MBC.

  Then Yeon Hee met MBC's third-in-command in the office of the head of the Entertainment Bureau.

  What I want to talk about is actually very simple, so simple that even Yoon Hyun doesn't dare believe it.

  MBC made a very simple offer: all variety shows under MBC, as long as Yoon Hyun is interested, can join. The salary will be the same as the current main MC of that show.

  In addition, considering Yoon Hyun's impressive performance in "Tae Hee's Intimate Friends", MBC also expressed that if Yoon Hyun is interested, he can also do radio broadcasting at MBC's radio station.

  Anyway, it's just a rhythm of "As long as you come, everything is easy to say and can be discussed."

  This sincerity made Yin Xian somewhat surprised.

  If SBS gave Yoon Hyun a kind of affirmation, it was a kind of excitement that he had been recognized by himself. Then MBC gave Yoon Hyun an unconditional trust, which is the kind of being trusted and moved.

  To know that as the current Korean variety show's ace, MBC's all online programs are basically already stable and mature.

  In such a situation, suddenly adding a character like Yin Xian to a program will bring about what kind of change, this is something that nobody can predict.

  This is also why Yoo Jae-suk was initially adamant about returning the spot of "Infinite Challenge" to Haha when MBC's production team split into two factions.

  Broke stability and balance. Is it a new development or destruction, no one dares to make a judgment.

  But MBC gave Yoon Hyun this power.

  As long as you want to, everything is the best treatment for this show. Even "Infinite Challenge", if Yun Hyun wanted to go, they would arrange for Ji Seung-joon, who had only recorded a few episodes, to leave and let Yun Hyun return again.

  Talking about salary, as a state-owned enterprise with complex equity structure, MBC definitely cannot offer salaries as high as SBS.

  But this trust is enough to move people.

  In this case, if Yoon Hyun doesn't show any signs of apology, that's a complete breakdown in their relationship.

  Then, Yoon Hyun began to look at MBC's program schedule...

  His gaze then fixed on a program.

  A program with very deep resentment on it.

  "Alright then. 'We Got Married.'". Yoon Hyun pointed and said, "The number of hosts for this program isn't fixed either, so adding me won't make it look out of place."

  The head of MBC's entertainment department was taken aback. He hadn't expected Yoon Hyun to choose this program.

  "Also, let's add another broadcast on Saturday or Sunday morning, about an hour and a half to two hours." Yoon Hyun thought for a moment and added, the last time he did a broadcast with Kim Tae-yeon, it left a pretty good impression. "If the time slot isn't available, that's okay." Yoon Hyun said with a smile.

  "How could it be! I will notify them to arrange as soon as possible!" The Director of the Arts Bureau directly agreed, "The detailed contract will be sent to Loen Company later..."

  "No problem, then trouble Director." Yoon Hyun left the office very succinctly.

  Everyone is busy, sincerity has been received, promises have been made, no need to waste each other's time.

  A clever person does things in this way.

  Yin Xian chose this program with another idea in mind.

  The core of the program "We Got Married" is on the imaginary couples, and as an MC in the studio, it's just a role of a barrage. Making some sarcastic comments, brushing up their presence, high-energy warnings, etc., won't be too tiring. As long as they watch one episode in the studio and make sarcastic comments following the program's rhythm, that's enough. The recording is relatively relaxing and doesn't take too much time. For Yoon Hyun, who is used to being sharp-tongued, he should have a good interaction with Park Mi-sun.

  Before Yun Hyun left the MBC building, he received a call from the PD of "We Got Married". This work efficiency made Yun Hyun wonder if MBC was also going to be privatized...

  It was Zhao PD, who had previously interacted with Yoon Hyun a lot, on the phone.

  The content of the phone call was actually very simple, it was to thank Yoon Hyun for his return without any grudges, and at the same time, hoped that Yoon Hyun could prepare a theme song for "We Got Married".

  Or use a song by Yoon Hyun Sang before as the theme song for the program.

  Not a single grievance that was forced into someone's ears could be heard, on the contrary, it sounded like they were taking advantage of the situation. However, it was obvious that the other party was actually trying to make amends. The sentence about writing a song was obviously just a setup for their second request.

  They must have taken a fancy to "Some".

  However, Yoon Hyun did not intend to use this song for "We Got Married".

  On the one hand, I feel that this song's style is a bit too far off from the tone of this show. This show is called "We Got Married" not "We Fell in Love", and the kind of push-and-pull feeling between lovers in "some" just doesn't fit...

  On the other hand, his previous experience in T-ara's dormitory made him a little wary. He didn't want to end up like Ham Eun-jung who couldn't forget her. That kind of ending... really wasn't what he wanted.

  He still misses those days when they could drink together, put their arms around each other's shoulders and sing songs of brotherhood.

  It seems I have to write another one.

  But his own fictional marriage had no feeling at all, this song... how to write it...

  Yin Xian's headache didn't stop... let's talk about it later.

  Anyway, I'll have to go for the recording next week too.

  Although it's still early, since Yoon Hyun has already arrived at MBC, he might as well go to the drama set a bit earlier.
