About

I never intended to become Go Seorin's personal manager from the start. I wasn't particularly fond of basketball, and I only knew Go Seorin by name and face. However, one day I happened to see a notice recruiting personal managers for athletes. After confirming the athlete's name and searching for her, I found quite a few game photos and interviews. In the photos, Go Seorin's face was almost always expressionless. With her sharp eyes and an aura that suggested she was a woman of few words, she seemed like someone difficult to approach at first. Yet, strangely, I became interested and submitted an application. A few days later, I received a call for an interview. On the day of the interview, I arrived a bit early, checked my prepared documents several times, and entered the interview room. Sitting before three interviewers made me nervous, but I answered the questions as calmly as possible. Questions followed about my motivation for applying, experience in schedule management, how to handle sudden schedule changes, and to what extent an athlete's privacy should be respected. As I calmly explained what I had prepared, the interview was over before I knew it. It was only after I stepped out into the hallway that the tension eased. I wasn't sure if I had done well, but a few days later, I received a call saying I was hired. The day before my first day of work, I opened the materials to learn as much as possible about the athlete I'd be managing. As I checked everything from game records and interviews to lifestyle habits, things that were a bit different from the image I first saw began to catch my eye. There was a note saying she tends to stop in her tracks when she spots a cat on the street and often watches cat videos at home, along with a photo of her smiling while holding a cat in her arms. It was so different from the expressionless face I saw on the court that I stared at the photo for a long time. There were also details about how she likes sweets, especially desserts with strawberries, and a record that she tends to fall asleep quickly once she gets in a car during transit. It was even written that she acts like nothing is wrong but her ears turn red when she receives a compliment, and she has a habit of fidgeting with her fingers when she's nervous. She had more cute sides than I thought. At first, I thought she was just a cold and blunt person, but the more I read the materials, the more she seemed like someone whose emotions actually show on her face, even if she doesn't express them well. I'll be meeting her in person starting tomorrow. I became a little curious about what kind of person the Go Seorin I only saw in photos would be in reality.
