The "Husky" team, led by Ryu CheongWoo, practiced in a brutal atmosphere.

It was because of an endless conflict between team members.

The interviews and background music that were inserted from time to time created an awkward atmosphere.

The practice did not stop because there were no participants without ambition. But since the conflict was not resolved, instead of focusing on the people involved in the unrest, the editing team narrated the story of Cha YooJin, who was alienated from the conflict.

And Park MoonDae appeared here. To put it another way, he played the role of an advisor who helped the main character of that story grow.

And they flicked through some cuts of Park MoonDae giving Cha YooJin chocolate bars or other snacks as they talked.

Like that old Korean tale where a mother gave rice cakes to a tiger, he just provided him with snacks to quickly end the situation, but thanks to the interview where YooJin said "MoonDae-hyung helped me", the scenes looked really good.

??

What? Haha

Were the two close?

Park MoonDae's fans were puzzled because it was an image they hadn't seen before.

This is because in the second team battle, MoonDae had joined the same team as Cha YooJin and they had a successful performance, but no content was shown stating that the two were close friends.

Also, why did he leave Ryu CheongWoo, his good leader, and run away to the side of their beloved son?

But doubts quickly faded because MoonDae's cute extra scenes were always welcome.

He fed him very well

MoonDae is a young man who takes food seriously.

Moon Puppy: Unexpected Healer

Why do I think of my grandmother when I see this (future) 21-year-old idol?

On screen, Cha YooJin successfully completed his performance, appealing to his concentrated passion in the performance as he was motivated by the good times he had with MoonDae.

They may criticize him for eating so much, but it left a much clearer impression: it was a story of despair and overcoming.

While fans were sad that YooJin got the kind of focus they wanted MoonDae to get, they enjoyed seeing MoonDae's cute personality and solid image of him on air.

It even had good reactions in the general audience.

Park MoonDae is more mature than I thought

It must be a reason why he gets along with his team members.

L I know~ my first impression of him was that he was very indifferent or rude, but it's surprising that he's not like that at all

He appeared as a helper for Cha YooJin. While MoonDae got more screen time, YooJin got all the success.

Still, MoonDae managed to get a very good image.

The next day, Park MoonDae had a hard time navigating through various pages to see netizens' reactions to the tenth episode.

This was because he was too riddled with comments mentioning him.

'It's great that I've recovered from my initial image but ... I couldn't let on how desperate I was to debut.'

He needed that image that Cha YooJin showed. However, they only had one more stage of the program, the final stage.

And there was no reason for the editing team to tell a story of Park MoonDae's despair in the final stage. Until now, they have created a funny character image for him to make the show more interesting.

'Should I give up?'

MoonDae was silent as he tried to remember how the filming of the show ended in his past life.

Then, he remembered an event that was going to happen right on the set.

"Wait, this... is it possible?"

Of course, it all depended on how the editing team presented it, but it was worth trying to do something that would help him.

Park MoonDae made up his mind.

"There's nothing wrong with trying."

He was so immersed in his thoughts that he didn't see the message Seon AhHyun had sent him, where he said "Let's eat steamed chicken".

* * *

"Wow, it's a little hot."

Keun SeJin muttered as he entered the film set.

It was already the end of April. The filming of the program began in winter and time passed in an instant.

"I've gotten pretty used to it."

Now it doesn't seem strange to me to be in the body of "Park MoonDae". But when I put my uniform back on from the show, it did feel a bit tight.

At that instant, SeJin saw me and spoke.

"Oh, did you grow a little taller?"

"What?"

"You must be working out hard. I also see you are a little more muscular."

I only just realized that.

In the last few months, I have grown quite a bit and gained muscle moderately, so there is very little difference between my original body and the body I now possess.

"I've heard that people over the age of twenty-one get taller, but this is the first time I've seen it."

"It's also my first time."

"Oh~ Look at him."

I shrugged.

'I must have been around 177 cm (1.77 m).'

While remembering my previous body measurements, I sat in the waiting room. It made me somewhat uncomfortable that there were no longer any unknown faces around me.

"Hello MoonDae~"

"Hello hyung!"

'If I ever return to my original body, I'll still need some time to adjust.'

That would be incredible. I returned the greetings to the boys and took out my phone. I was supposed to turn it off and hand it over to the staff before filming started.

But I just received a notification. It came from my anonymous social media account that I created to search for posts and observe the opinions of the general public.

When I clicked on the notification, it took me to a post that had just been shared over 10,000 times.

---

The original singer of the trot song that MoonDae sang made a post and talked about him haha ​​(Link)

---

That was not unusual.

Since the show was already famous, the little celebrities mentioned their favorite contestants.

When I clicked on the link, a photo appeared of the trot singer's face smiling broadly and holding up her fingers in a heartbeat.

In the background, there was a television screen showing the scene where I was singing a trot.

---

Icorpo's Park MoonDae sang my song beautifully! I support him ^^ I hope he makes his debut! #Icorpo #Let'sDoADuet #CoolTrot

---

-...

Well... It's good that the original singer was satisfied. I think the fans are having fun too.

With that in mind, I wanted to close the app to turn off my phone, but another post from the trot singer popped up on the screen. This time, he posted a large photo.

'Hang on a minute.'

That was a photo that I had taken.

I checked again and discovered that this was the same photo of the event that I had taken around this same date a few years ago in my past life.

I didn't sell it, so I posted it to a fan community. The quality of the photo was very good, so I wanted to post it on social media.

But I felt a bit uncomfortable. When I turned off my phone, I realized the cause.

'But right now I'm here.'

As soon as I transmigrated into the body of "Park MoonDae", I tracked down the whereabouts of my original body, but didn't find any personal information.

So how come she has the photo I took around these days in my past life?

'This is weird.'

I immediately went to WeTube and clicked on the search bar to see if the most famous fancam I've ever taken was there.

This is a fancam where judge YoungRin passionately danced her performance even though it was raining heavily and she might fall. I took that fancam when she was still an idol from an unknown group, but my video made her successful.

Then a thumbnail result appeared at the bottom.

'It's there.'

Of course there was a video, although it was not uploaded to my original account.

I had deleted the account where I posted the videos I didn't sell because I started preparing for the "Civil Service" exam. But I will have done that last year or so.

Even so, the owner of the channel where the video was uploaded had written something that was pinned to the top of the comments window.

I have reuploaded the video as the original video channel was deleted. If the owner of the original video registers again, I will delete this video.

I was sure of something.

'The original 'me' no longer exists, but all the material I took still remains on the internet.'

It was kind of creepy. Even more so because if I don't become an idol in a short period of time, I will definitely die.

'This is my karma for selling idol material.'

I had taken that idea as a joke before, but apparently it was real.

'What the hell are you?'

I turned on the status window and asked, but there was no answer. I feel stupid.

What the hell is its purpose?

"Hey, what are you doing?"

"Oh, give me a moment. I'm thinking about something."

I responded quickly. Although I found a sloppy contradiction that caused me a mental mess, the shooting was about to start.

'I'll find out more when I'm done with this.'

I stopped rambling and handed my phone over to the staff.

If I worry and get distracted by other things, I will only become prey to negative criticism for displaying a controversial attitude. I had to clear my mind.

Fortunately, doing that didn't require any effort. As soon as filming started, the MC spoke...

"Welcome to the long-awaited Third Rankings Ceremony of "Idol Corporation - Reincorporated!~"

While the contestants had learned to give a hearty round of applause at the previous ceremonies held in the previous months of filming, this time the MC got straight to the point.

"But before you know the rankings, there's something you need to find out first! I hope you are sincere."

The content of 'something' immediately came to mind. I guessed the following words from the MC.

"You will see how serious we are about this program. We will receive the 'Casting Calls'."

Yes, Idol Corporation traditionally adds other provocative content at this point.

It's called "Casting Calls."

In short, it is a meeting where Tnet and moderately famous agencies come to choose the participants.

However, if the participant chooses an agency, then he will have to leave the program.

Though a contestant who has performed well on the show so far is unlikely to leave.

The contestants are not fools, they know that they can debut as a group with guaranteed recognition right here, so there is no reason to go to another agency.

In conclusion, there is almost no chance that a contestant who is highly likely to debut on this show will run away. This is just one event that adds tension to the show.

'But I can take advantage of that tension.'

So, they will try to persuade me to go to an agency, but I will show my sincerity to debut only through this show.

...Well, it's very likely that I'll be edited.

Heup.

I heard someone swallow next to me. Most of them probably guessed that we would probably be casted by what the MC said.

This challenge would have been very controversial if it had been applied in the previous ceremony, since the majority of participants in middle and lower positions could leave, since they would consider that if they had almost no opportunity to debut, then they would choose to withdraw for a hopeful option.

Contestants might say, "I want to start a new challenge because I've been wanting to join that agency for a long time. I'll show my best in the future."

'In fact, lower-ranked participants consistently dropped out of the program.'

In the second season of Icorpo, I think five participants went to other agencies. I think it was a wise decision, considering that the broadcast ended shortly after due to the huge scandal.

The MC sighed and continued when he saw the contestants gasp.

"You guys will have~"

A large screen lit up in front of him.

'Maybe they will put a list of the agencies that will come.'

When the youngsters started whispering that it would surely be the "Casting Call", the MC spread his arms wide and finished his announcement.

"A psychological test!"

"?!?!"

"Through the personality type test that we have prepared for you, we will find the perfect KPOP concept for each of you~"

The participants around me relaxed and said "Wooow...".

I started to break out in a cold sweat.

'This is turning into a variety show.'

It was possible that the next team battle could be decided with the results obtained from this test.

In any case, the truth is that... we have been deceived.

'Dammit.'

The staff called us in groups of ten people and guided us to a small room. The good thing is that since they called us in alphabetical order, it didn't take long for them to call me, but I still felt uncomfortable.

'I shouldn't have prepared for something that wouldn't happen.'

The room we were taken to was actually a practice room that had been decorated with a chair and desk with a camera installed. It was a space to make a typical single angle cut.

Holding my breath, I sat down at the desk. On it, there was a tablet that had a questionnaire that I had to answer.

It had a form that was trendy on social media, which reduced its credibility.

'I think I've seen this somewhere on the internet.'

They probably decided to do this again at the last minute, so they looked for a multiple choice quiz.
