Chapter 14 (2/2)
Maybe it was because the studio had already sucked out as ra a head-to-head competition between idols
It was a concept where 4 girl groups and 4 boy groups, 8 teaainst each other and one would come out on top to receive the title of Next K-Star
They competed in various themes In the article, it stated that they would co as well as their perforrams
After the coroup who received the highest score froe votes froroups’ popularity, there was no way it wouldn’t be a topic of interest
The prize for winning was a 7-part reality TV series produced by Knet and the right to attend the estee Kpop stars could attend Froood chance for them
“Fans are probably going to fight a lot during the viewer voting process”
They would probably go crazy trying to make their teams win
The traitor nodded in agreement
“Well, they put viewer voting in there for that It raises the show’s popularity Since the voting process will be in a league of their own”
“What?”
“If girl groups are pitted against boy groups, the girl groups’ fandoms will lose out, so the winner should be froram never had a female winner for its past 7 seasons”
“Really? Then I guess we need to give up on trying to win and focus on gaining popularity”
“Producer Go Joontae is a really aggressive editor so if we’re unlucky, we ht only receive tons of insults”
That’s right There will always be a sacrificial la process Since it said that Neptune received a lot of insults, the girls otten into some sort of trouble I had to keep my eyes wide open and watch out for whatever it was
Slam
So party like us, only two people I didn’t know thethe black snapback looked familiar
Kihoon
He was a hip-hop artist who debuted a long tih school Although he seems to have switched his job to an entertainer from an artist
When I was living with hoon was a permanent member of an entertainment show I used to watch frequently
“hello, senior!”
Seoyoung with only half her hair curled instantly got up The other hoon looked like a regular irls as he waved his hand s broadly
“Wah… I think I aroup?”
“We are Neptune!”
The char took the lead as she introduced the group and her hoon’s face beca each other, the traitor and I also introduced ourselves Though our target was the er
“hello We are Neptune’s ers”
“Yeah, hi I’er”
He had a shaggy beard and I was unsure if he was drinking untilsmell of alcohol every time he breathed
“They are the ones who are going on Next K-Star, right? There were a lot of articles about that today”
“Yes, you’re right Please take care of us”
“There isn’t anything to ask of uys will be really stressed soon”
“Pardon?”
“Aren’t there eight teams?”
“That’s right”
“Then if they all gather in one spot, there will probably be like 50-60 people It’s not like it’s an idol track , fuck I wouldn’t be able to handle that”
50-60 people I didn’t think of that
During the music broadcast yesterday, it seeuess Next K-Star would be much worse? Since it wasn’t like ere stuck in our oaiting roo the broadcast, everyone would have to face each other
This wasn’t a probleht ast the teams
“And…”
Jonghoon’s er lowered his voice
“The girls who dropped out because of the DUI, their e bastard with the appearance of a dirty gangster”
“Yes”
I answered
“I a you know just in case, be careful of that bastard”
“Be careful?”
“I saw hiood crowd If we reetsthe girls he’s in charge of Ruers as well Anyways, there aren’t just one or two dirty rumors about that bastard”
He did look that way Just looking at the way he called a girl he’s in charge of a da-like bitch… and without any hesitation even though I atching him
He really did glare atwhile It probably was due to the suit, if I showed any hints of being a new er, I think the atmosphere would have turned much more brutal
“He probably got busted for not taking care of the girls properly, so do you think he’ll look at you who replaced the is he could try to let it out on you guys Just keep that in mind”
“Yes, thank you”
“What do you mean thanks… if that bastard really does try to do so, call some reporters”
“Reporters?”
Not the security or police?
“Reporters work best against bastards like hie could fall with a single article You guys probably have one or two entertainht?”
“Yes”
The traitor answered daoing to fight with seemed to be me, but as it that the traitor the one on friendly terms with a reporter
…Nothing will happen, right?
