Chapter 8: Chapter 6: [May Dump] (2)
These types of people...
Wang Hajoon, the CEO of [Arkhe Entertainment].
Wang Hyeon who has absolute authority over [Arkhe Entertainment].
Receiving an invite to join the upcoming survival show [Cap-Teen-Vating] confirmed Geon's suspicions.
The trainee who was supposed to participate got into a car accident, temporarily disabling his legs.
[Arkhe Entertainment] chose 5 boys to send to [Cap-Teen-Vating].
And now, there's a vacant slot.
To some trainees, it was a chance.
But that chance was given to Geon, the new kid.
What's going on inside Wang Hyeon's mind?
What's Wang Hajoon's gain from this?
•••
[Cap-Teen-Vating] exceeded Geon's expectations.
'What the fuck?' He could only curse in his mind.
He got off from the black van [Arkhe Entertainment] prepared for him.
What greeted him was a huge forest.
A fucking forest that seemed to be staring back at him.
"When they told me 'survival', I didn't think it would be like this."
•••
"Nice to meet you, everyone! My name is Kang Sejin, your handsome MC! A lot of you must be feeling nervous since this is our first day filming [Cap-Teen-Vating] but don't fret blah blah blah..."
'I'm not nervous, I'm confused." Geon stopped the urge to sigh as he pretended to be interested on what the famous actor, Kang Sejin was saying on the stage.
The era of idols have arrived.
It was the agencies' time to gain enormous amount of money.
That's where attractive and talented individuals come in the picture.
The agencies hold an audition every week-- the larger ones hold at least once every month.
Some even goes to other countries to scout foreighners.
It's the era of idols.
Almost everything that has connection to idols earn public attention.
But of course, in 40+ groups that debut every year, only the 5% survives.
And that's how survival shows come in the picture.
They are shows involving trainees from different agencies.
Shows made to promote.
The trainees compete against each other for the judges' approval and the public's vote.
Whoever enters the final lineup gets to debut.
But since the trainees are from different agencies, they often disband after 2 years due to the contracts they signed, disappointing many fans.
Some capable agencies (the big ones) hold these kind of survival shows too.
The only difference was that, the members of the final lineup gets to stay as a group for as long as the normal ones.
Let's say, 7 years.
Because all the trainees are under one agency.
[Arkhe Entertainment], an agency led by an ambitious man, Wang Hajoon.
It collaborated with one of the most popular TV channel in South Korea, [KNet] to give life to their new project: [Cap-Teen-Vating].
87 boys.
5 from [Arkhe Entertainment].
5 solo trainees.
The 77 left came from different agencies.
Who knew that the agencies-- rivals, would become one because of a survival show?
But is that really the case?
<I can't believe you!"
A hot-headed teammate from a rival agancy.
"Were you lying, bro?"
A "friend" made under some circumstances.
"I told you."
A manipulative fucker.
"Again."
Your infamous strict-teacher-like judge.
"Choice Geon. He only got this far because of his mother."
An envious participant.
"Hei...zou...?"
And old acquaintance.>
Geon's [May Dump] ended.
