The Trashy PD Has To Survive as an Idol

Chapter 111

Chapter 111

Whats this?

EX Rank?

As I was awestruck by the unfamiliar ranking, I overheard Kim Seonghyeon chatting with Jeong Dajun.

But why didnt Senior Joo Woosung appear on any dance variety shows? Hes the main dancer.

Well, from what I heard He wanted to learn more about dancing and went to the U.S. He said it was for rest despite the company trying to stop him.

[Me: Where are you?]

[Joo Woosung: Cali]

I slapped my forehead as I remembered the text I had exchanged with him. [1]

Joo Woosung

He mustve been bursting with pride about this.

So thats why he was out of sight for months.

Theres a famous dance studio in California. I heard he worked really hard there.

Can you upgrade your dance stats to EX just by laying low for a few months??

Joo Woosung honestly made me jealous. I was working my bones to the ground, while he became an EX rank just by taking a trip to California. Lifes balance patch seemed off.

Did he save a country in his past life?

It went beyond talent, and I wondered if Joo Woosung was receiving some kind of item luck.

Moreover, he confidently told me to watch the stage. Indeed, there was a reason. As soon as we returned to the waiting room, Black Calls stage started on the television for monitoring.

Even on the small, low-quality TV in the waiting room, Joo Woosung was incredibly amazing.

You cant deny, cracks appear in the smallest crevices,

Im going to change everything about you.

Joo Woosung, as expected, was an excellent performer with a singing stat of A+ and a dance stat of EX-. He knew exactly when to be strong or gentle while catching the camera.

Dont run away, Im here beside you,

If you reel, you know why

No, it wasnt about controlling strength and softness.

He was simply born to be on the stage. Joo Woosung threw his hand up as if he was throwing a ball in the center of the stage, then raised one corner of his lip.

Its Black Call.

Wow

Hopelessness

To think he has been carelessly practicing and dating with that talent until now

I wanted to grab Joo Woosung by the collar and shake him, feeling regretful about the time he wasted.

Hes crazy, hes so good

Even those who knew nothing about dancing could tell he was insane. I wondered how he looked in the eyes of Jeong Dajun and Kim Seonghyeon. Even the usually noisy Jeong Dajun was absorbed into the screen with his mouth shut.

Even through the small screen, the song was explosive. I couldnt even imagine the shock the fans must have felt on the spot

The more I watched the performance, the more I lost my spirit.

Where did my adorable No.1 go?UppTodated from

And wasnt it just Joo Woosung?

As the stage progressed, I began to feel a deep sense of betrayal towards another person as well.

Is this really Lim Hyeonsus?!?!

To him, Cheongbeom.

You pumped the beat full of money and made it this crazy?

Kang Ichae is better? Theres no need to come to me now?

This was nothing but deception, check, and exploitation.

Hoyun, why are you like that?

Phew, just pissed off for a moment

As I ground my teeth in anger, Seong Jiwon comforted me by patting my back.

Both Lim Hyeonsu and Joo Woosung There was no need to worry or comfort them.

Right, who should I be worried about in this situation?

I pledged not to worry about others from now on.

I should be worried about myself. After all, Im living alone in this harsh world.

This annoyed feeling continued until the award for the No.1 song came.

Congratulations! The No.1 is Black Call!

Boom, the fireworks exploded.

***

A chilly evening. Everyone was serious except for Jeong Dajun, who was grumbling about some medicine he had received.

I will start the first emergency meeting of The Dawn.

I knocked on the blackboard. Kim Seonghyeon raised his hand as if he had something to say.

Kim Seonghyeon will speak.

Yes, go ahead.

What exactly is this emergency meeting about?

Its an emergency meeting to plan how we can achieve first place during our mini album activities.

.

Kim Seonghyeon squinted slightly. His expression said, Even if we have a meeting, will things go our way?

As if practicing would solve everything.

I too, would have preferred to solve this within my limitations, however, for The Dawns No. 1 spot, I couldnt do it alone.

What do you think was the reason we couldnt achieve the first place this time?

It was because of the Cute-Pretty-Gorgeous Kang Ichae~!

I didnt hear you right.

Just Ichae.

Kang Ichae waved his half-raised hand.

The timing of our comeback was awful~. We didnt know Black Call-seniors would completely overlap with us.

Right. It was even difficult to delay the comeback. There were schedules booked in advance.

Everyone groaned. In the end, it was agreed that we should try as much as possible not to overlap with Black Call.

Hoyun, can we extend our activity period a bit more?

We can adjust it but we have schedules after this.

If we extend our activities by one week, there would be a period where we wouldnt overlap with Black Call.

Kim SeonghyeonEven if we extend our activities by one week, can we take the first place? Black Call-seniors gets to be No. 1 even without appearing on music broadcasts.

Whats the all-time highest record of Black Call-seniors?

Im not sure about the all-time record, but during their last activity, they secured 13 wins. They swept all the top spots on the music shows, and even when they stopped appearing, they still remained No. 1

13 wins??

Black Call did have a relatively long promotion period, so they swept everything.

Sometimes I forgot that Joo Woosung was such a remarkable guy because he acted so foolishly.

The mood quickly turned sour.

Well, its worth a shot. When will the Black Call-seniors finish their music show promotions? Is it until next week?

Uh, thats the last time.

Should we adjust it and do it for one more week?

Itll cost more, but its not a bad choice. Except for one thing.

Yeonhwa is making a comeback after that.

Ah!

Yeonhwa was a group that was a candidate in the Shining Star Season 1, but they were quite high-ranking and eventually cancelled their appearance. They are now active in Japan, so they were absent. They didnt gain as much recognition as expected.

Hmm, overseas.

This is.

Everyone was lost in thought. Kang Ichae, sitting on the sofa, was shaking his body from side to side and rolling his eyes when his gaze landed on Kim Seonghyeon.

Seonghyeon-hyung, want to show off your abs?

Do you think it will change something if I do?

Uhmuhmuh, it would make a huge difference~.

You show yours too, then.

Just then, my phone rang. It was PD Kim Heeyeon from Shining Star.

Shining Star PD Kim Heeyeon: Oh right

Shining Star PD Kim Heeyeon: How did you know? About the voting system changing?

Living an honest life pays off.

What nonsense are you blabbering now?

Lets do one more week.

We should at least secure first place since weve made a comeback, right?
