RIIZE's EUNSEOK Transforms into SHOTARO's One-Day Manager… "Please Don't Fire Me"

A unique scene has been revealed where the members of the group RIIZE become each other's one-day managers to carry out their schedules. In this episode released through the official RIIZE YouTube channel 'Bucket RIIST', episodes are captured where the members personally take on the role of managers and manage the artists' schedules.

"Need a delicate manager" EUNSEOK is the optimal manager chosen by the members

During the voting process to select a manager, the members presented different criteria. The members engaged in discussions, setting various conditions such as a 'creative manager' or a 'manager who doesn't cause trouble.' In this process, EUNSEOK was evaluated by the members as "someone who doesn't make others uncomfortable and takes good care of them quietly." In particular, the members emphasized that EUNSEOK's calm personality is suitable for the manager role and recommended him as the manager.

Ultimately, EUNSEOK was selected as SHOTARO's one-day manager. Immediately after taking on the manager role, EUNSEOK showed an active side by checking schedules and identifying movement routes. He began full-scale managing duties as he headed to the filming site of SHOTARO's individual schedule, a variety show in Japan.

SHOTARO's close care, even pleading "Please don't fire me"

At the variety show filming site held in Japan, EUNSEOK managed SHOTARO's schedule, claiming to be a '4th-year manager.' EUNSEOK put in meticulous effort, such as checking shower facilities so that SHOTARO could adjust his condition before filming, and taking care of requirements related to styling. In particular, while SHOTARO was using a facial mask to manage facial swelling before filming, EUNSEOK monitored SHOTARO's condition and coordinated the atmosphere on site.

At the scene, urgent moments testing his capabilities as a manager continued. As the filming schedule moved urgently, EUNSEOK performed various tasks such as caring for SHOTARO's condition, preparing drinks for the staff, and preparing for album signings and Reels filming, in addition to managing SHOTARO. In this process, when SHOTARO showed a joking reaction to the manager's handling, EUNSEOK even revealed the hardships of being a manager by saying, "Please don't fire me."

"Meticulous task processing" The unexpected side of a manager on their 1st day of work

EUNSEOK showed a higher level of work immersion than expected while carrying out SHOTARO's schedule. He showed a meticulous side, such as checking the script reading time before filming and creating an environment so that SHOTARO could familiarize himself with the script. In particular, his appearance of delivering drinks to the staff and observing on-site etiquette showed that he was faithfully performing his role as a 'one-day manager.'

As filming progressed, EUNSEOK continued the schedule while paying attention to even small details such as SHOTARO's styling and time management. EUNSEOK's appearance of grasping the flow of the scene and taking care of the artist's requirements, to the point where the setting of being on the 1st day of work felt meaningless, served as a major watching point of this episode.
