Chapter Sixty Two
The into began. We moved through the opening formation, the the first verse started. I focused on hitting the moves clean and keeping the energy up, I didn't forget to keep up my smiling appearance too. Around me, I could feel the others doing the same, we were in sync. We entered the pre-chorus. I moved to the center of the stage with Dahyun at my left and Hyunmin at right, Dohwan was behind Dahyun and Minchan behind Hyunmin, and Taeyang at the center back. Then the chorus hit. We exploded into the bright and energetic choreography while keeping it playful. I forced myself to keep smiling while inwardly cringing at myself. We thankfully made it through the chorus without any mistakes. We entered the second verse and didn't make mistakes through it, then eventually entered the bridge. We gave it our all in the final chorus, then we hit the final pose. I glanced up, the judges clapped politely then we bowed and walked off the stage. “Woah!!! I can't believe it! We didn't me
Chapter Sixty One
We managed to make it through without any mistakes this time. We stood in our positions when it ended, breathing hard. “Tgat was better, right?” Hyunmin said, looking directly at Dohwan. He didn't say anything but nodded. “See?” I said. “We just needed to clear our heads for a bit, let's take a thirty minute break and start all over.” Everyone agreed. As people filed out to get water or use the bathroom, I stayed behind. Three days left. We weren't ready and probably wouldn't be, but we had to keep practicing. Because what else was there to do? After the break, we came back feeling refreshed. “Let's break it down,” I said. “Instead of running through the whole thing, let's focus on the sections giving us problems.” “What sections?” Taeyang asked. “All of them,” Dohwan said dryly. “The second verse,” I said, ignoring him. “That's where we have the most issues, let's focus on that part for now.” We spent the next hour on eight counts of the choreography. Over and over.

The next morning, we submitted our song choice and got access to the official track. By 8 AM, all six of us were in the practice room, ready to start choreographing. “Okay,” Hyunmin said. “We have the song, now we just need to figure out the choreography.” “Should we watch the original choreography first?” Taeyang asked. “No, that one's a bit too cutesy for my liking,” Dohwan said. “We should try to create one that suits our taste.” “But we have no idea how to do cute choreography.” A beat of silence passed over the room. “Let's just watch the original,” I said. Dohwan looked at me. “But…” “We're not copying it,” I said. “Let's at least have an idea on what we're doing.” Dohwan looked at the ceiling. Then he dropped onto the floor, crossed his legs and waved his hand loosely. “Fine.” Taeyang pulled it up and propped his phone against the mirror. We gathered round. Fifteen seconds in, Dohwan’s expression had already shifted into something pained. “The hand gestures,” he sa
Chapter Fifty Nine
Taeyang went first, he was really good with his movements clean and sharp. Hyunmin went next, his dancing was…okay. He has the basics at least but his dancing wasn't as refined as Taeyang’s. Then it was Minchan's turn. He was really good in contemporary, just like he said. Dohwan was next. He wasn't lying when he said he was average. His dancing was good enough but not really remarkable. Then Dahyun went next, he was really good too but I knew his vocals were better. And finally, it was my turn, I stepped forward and started dancing. I decided to mix hip hop and contemporary. When I finished, Taeyang whistled. “You're really good,” Dohwan said. “Thanks,” I said. We rotated through a few more times, trying different songs and tempos. Slowly, we started getting a sense of each other's styles and strengths. After about an hour, we took a break. Everyone grabbed water and sat against the mirrored wall. “So,” Hyunmin said. “What do you think? How are we looking as a team?” “We
Chapter Fifty Eight
I started looking around for Nal Taeyang, he was the only one I'd met before, though it was just a passing encounter. And finally, I spotted him. “There,” I said to Dahyun, pointing at a tall guy close to the windows, then we walked over. “Hi,” I said, smiling politely. He turned then looked at me. “Ah, Seo Ireum right?” “Yes,” I responded. “And you're Nal Taeyang right? We're on the same team.” “Well then, it's nice to meet you again, and this is?” “Lee Dahyun,” I said. “Pleasure,” he said, stretching out his hand to Dahyun. “Same,” Dahyun said a bit more quietly. It seemed as though Dahyun was only active when he was with me. “Have you seen the others? Or do you know them at least?” I asked. “I just know one, Hong Hyunmin, he’s with his friends over there,” Taeyang pointed. “I don't know the other two.” “Then let's go say hi,” I said. Hong Hyunmin was extremely energetic, talking rapidly with his friends, laughing loudly. When we approached, he turned with a
Chapter Fifty Seven
Jungeon Dae-jung walked down the hallway, he carried a tablet in his hands, the news of Choi Jin Wook and Choi Seung Woo's arrest showing on the screen. He’d been coming here everyday for the past three years since his wife completely broke down when she realised they couldn't do anything to help their son. The doctors called it a severe depressive episode with psychotic features. She'd stop eating, sleeping and speaking. She also hated him for backing down so easily and had become extremely suicidal. He reached her room and knocked softly before entering. Jungeon Mi-hee sat at the window, staring out at nothing. She was thinner than she used to be, and her beautiful black hair had streaks of gray. “Mi-hee,” Dae-jung said gently, sitting in the chair beside her. She didn't respond. “I have something to show you,” he continued. “It's about our baby boy, Tremin.” At their son’s name, her eyes flickered slightly. Dae-jung held up the tablet. “The people responsible for
