《Debut or Die (MTL)》65

ㅤㅤ
ㅤㅤ
It was common for groups making survival debuts to film reality programs.
This is because you can take some of the characters and topics gained through the audition program.
'…but I didn't know that I would start filming right away after one meeting.’
I didn't even hear much during the meeting.
We just interviewed each other about what we wanted to do.
"Is it a relief that the dorm is good?"
Maybe he was conscious of the filming, but the accommodation was more brilliant than I thought. It's my first time staying in a new apartment with such a large area of security.
Of course, each corner had a camera.
"Oh, the camera!"
"Good morning…?”
The guys who were running to the living room after taking off their shoes at the front door looked at the camera and pretended to know. This is an action that was asked beforehand.
"I think it's unnatural to look like I'm not paying attention to the camera".’
I think it would be more difficult not to be aware of this much in the first place.
Even when entering the living room, several cameramen and production staff were waiting in the blind spot of unmanned cameras.
I've heard that people are going to leave behind unmanned cameras after a short while today for an early reality show cut.
"First of all, congratulations on your acceptance∼”
"Wow!"
"Take a proof shot!"
The successful candidates sitting around the living room clapped and took a picture together, and then began to host the reality show.
"Hey, it feels like a new team game has started."
"I think you're right, except the team match is five years."
"Raebin is good at this"
Fortunately, everyone looked natural.
This is how you benefit from living with the camera in "Aju Temple."’
In addition, the atmosphere was harmonious with the joy of passing.
Those who were three times less sensitive and generous than when they filmed the audition laughed while exchanging words of blessing and jokes.
"You all worked so hard."
"That's right. I think I can enjoy almost everything now!"
"Z, let's have fun...!”
And, when appropriate, a robot vacuum cleaner popped out of the camera blind spot crew.
It was the mascot and major PPL for this reality show.
"What?"
"What does he have?"
A card full of glittering glue dangled near the vacuum cleaner's head.
Cha Yoo-jin, who has quick hands, lifted the vacuum cleaner and pulled out a card.
"What does it say?"
"That's right!"
Cha Yu-jin read the contents of the card excitedly, still wearing a robot vacuum cleaner on his side.
"Well, you know... From now on, you'll receive missions through cards! Clear the mission so that you can be a true group!'"
"Oh, my."
"Mi, mission."
The atmosphere became a little solemn. There was no reaction to the trauma.
Ryu Chung-woo laughed as if he had given up.
"Haha, I passed the audition, but the mission is not over....”
I thought bitterly.
'… To become a true group, I think the agency needs to get its act together first.’
Just three days ago, I was informed that my company would change hands about three times a day Tnet came to mind repeatedly canceling.
I didn't have a good feeling about it.

"I think there's a false rumor going on the contrary to what I'm saying."’
Since the program was so popular this time, he seemed to want to create a new direct agency at the T1 level and roll the testa.
However, since there was an existing contract with the Tnet subsidiary, it seems that it was difficult to take it away easily.
So the group was left unattended rather than distracted from their quarrel.
I even heard in an article this morning that they would release their debut song within a month. But we haven't even met our manager yet.
‘I'm going crazy.’
I held back a sigh.
Then, Cha Yu-jin raised her hand.
"Oh? There's more! Today's mission is... Free time'!"
"Oh!!"
The mood was lifted in an instant.
I also enjoyed the break I got today. I received high fives from people around me for reaction.
‘Let's not think about it.’
It's almost confirmed that he joined T1's new agency.
A newcomer without time has no authority. I just had to accept it.
'…please don't just stick your relatives in the planning part.’
I hope the high-ranking people will take care of their sales, accounting, and operation and not just touch the plan. Please write a career position.
"Looking around our room! Let's get a room!"
Successful applicants stood up with 'free time' cards and began touring their homes.
Three rooms and three bathrooms. It was a good composition to share.
And there was a number sign in front of each bedroom.
"TeSTAR's first mini game!" The topic is choosing a room!
"It's the same."
"Well, really."
Kim Rae-bin, who volunteered to impersonate the MC of "Ajusa," became solemn again because he was similar enough to stimulate PTSD rather than funny. But the game went without a hitch.
In that way, the notes were drawn from the boxes in the order determined through several board games with dark random elements.
"This is also a strange deja vu..."
"That's right?
Every time "Ajusa" overlaps, the kids get sentimental.
Anyway, I picked the second note after Cha Yu-jin.
It was number one.
'I avoided number three.’
Bedroom No. 3, the main room, was a structure for three people to share. It was natural that two were much better than three.
'I wish I could share a room with a quieter guy.’
For now, Cha Yu-jin avoided it.
'We'll just have to avoid the Keun Sejin.’
As soon as he thought so, Lee Se-jin, who was next, pulled out the first note.
“…….”
Just before the silence, Keun Sejin and Ryu Chung-woo came in.
"Oh! Moondae and Sejin are in the same room."
"Both of them are hard to break, so I think they'll get along well."
"Right?"
It was fortunate that there were quick-witted people.
"I look forward to your kind cooperation."
I quickly reached out my hand, and Lee Se-jin slowly reached out and shook hands.
"I'm a bit worried about filming this."
I liked the apparent quietness.
However, the camera will turn for two to three weeks, but the key has been whether this guy will pretend to be warm.
"The staff will do it on their own."’
It's not an audition, it's a reality show, but I thought it would be edited well.

This is because even if there was a controversy, there was nothing good for the production team.
"Let's hurry up and pick one too."
The rest of the room assignment ended in two extremes.
Kim Raebin and Seon Ahyun will do it.
"Well, take care of me."
"I look forward to your kind cooperation."
Seeing the two unfriendly guys in a personnel battle, I thought that they would be uncomfortable.
Of course things are much better than me.
Both of us don't have the same personality.
"Oh, our room sounds really fun”
"I like the big room!"
"Yes! Let's get along."
And room 3 for 3 people...…Keun Se-jin, Cha Yu-jin, and Ryu Chung-woo were shared.
It was already noisy. However, Ryu looked somewhat satisfied.
"Come to think of it, Ryu Chung-woo's position has been revealed."’
Ryu Chung-woo never met anyone privately except Cha Yu-jin among the successful candidates.
It would be better to go into a crowded room and set the situation quickly.
It's the icing on the cake because there's a big sejin that's friendly and polite to older people.
Following the crew's signature, he immediately moved to the bedroom to unpack and take a rest cut.
"Which bed would you like?”
"I don't care about anything.”
"Really?"
If you say so.
I went straight to the left bed and unpacked. It was on the other side of the living room, so it seemed that there would be less noise on the wall.
For your information, Lee Se-jin was also looking at this bed. Thanks to you, I became silent again.
“…….”
It's not a survival show. Why would I try to please you?
I'm going to do as I please as long as I don't get caught.
Lee Se-jin looked this way without saying a word, then went to the other side and unpacked.
I began to unpack with a calm heart of peace. Actually, I didn't have much to organize because I didn't have much.
Oh, I bought some clothes because I didn't have enough clothes. It was the prize money my team won by a narrow margin in the final.
I heard that I was criticized for announcing it on the Internet after the program due to the time distribution problem of the finals, but it's okay because I paid for it.
For your information, kimchi refrigerator...I still haven't received it. There were no other crooks.
"I'm getting angry."’
By the time I folded my last clothes with a sigh, the quiet room was filled with human voices.
"Cheers!"
"As expected, room number one is good. Is it because the winner stayed there?"
They were from room three.
Ryu Chung-woo, a graduate of the National University, told me how to unpack, so the arrangement was over in an instant, and Cha Yu-jin and Keun Se-jin seemed to be stirring around the Hee Hee Nak Room.
"Is there anything you want to eat for dinner?"”
Ryu Chung-woo sat on the bed smiling.
"Galbi!"
"Jokbal! (pig feet!)"
Even if it's Cha Yujin, Keun Sejin seems to be doing more to get more footage.
…I suddenly had an ominous premonition that I would not be able to escape the yoke of this uproar while the reality was going on.
* * *
We had to cook together for dinner. Thanks to you, I cooked more than 2 servings for the first time in a long time.
"Cooking is better than going grocery shopping."
Once you're out, you should talk more. Since there are fewer people.
In addition, entering a large mart with three cameras required considerable courage.
Anyway, the cooking was pretty successful though. Unexpectedly, the assistant came in well.
Except for Seon Ahyun.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry...….”
"There's nothing to be sorry about."
I thought you could feel sorry for your hands, not me.
I kicked Seon Ahyun out of the kitchen, who almost cut her hand for the third time.
Seon Ahyun, who was anxious, felt relieved when I gave him the job of setting the table instead.
'… a lady came to my house.’
I wondered why I put a worker on a guy who was good at housework. It's because I'm terrible at cooking.
Anyway, the jjimdak is well done. It was Ryu Chung-woo's pick, who won rock-paper-scissors.
"I did it on my birthday because I didn't want to waste money on eating out, but I'm using it like this."’
I shrugged my shoulders as I recalled my first year of earning money from data sales.
"It looks delicious."
"I know."
“…….”
Lee Sejin did not give a special answer to Kim Raebin's words, but was surprisingly cooperative in cooking.
"Is it because you're holding a knife?"
I arranged the kitchen knife I was still holding. In the meantime, the jjimdak was carried to the table by the grocery store team.
"Oh, jjimdak is really good!"
"The soy sauce is well seasoned and soft."
The meal was a success.
"Should I learn how to cook?”
"I'm a good cook.”
"Oh? Then I'll cook!"
"But I like shopping more."
With Cha Yu-jin's bright remarks, the introduction of the reality show ended.
"Thank you for your hard work"∼”
As the filming team withdrew, they installed a claw machine in the living room.
All the dolls inside were placed with scissors on the back of the head.
"It'd be a little creepy at night."’
Anyway, I'll be surprised to see you tomorrow in the living room and ask you to pick one of those dolls.
‘It's a content selection.’
I heard that we will meet our manager tomorrow and finally start an album meeting with my agency, but if I want to do that, my fast sleep is gone.
I quickly went into the room with the determination to sleep a lot today.
Lee Sejin was already in bed and looking at his smartphone.
"Good night."
"…you too."
Is it because I eat well? It's a little softer than in the morning.
I put on my earplugs right away and started to sleep. In the last view, the camera was running alone in the corner.
'I hope the people I'm meeting tomorrow don't talk nonsense.’
And this wind is only half done.
* * *
The manager was a decent man.
"Tell me if you need anything"
It seemed soft and the critical point. Just looking at it, I thought it was the kind of person who didn't raise his hand to the child.
"It's already too popular to say that you're a rookie."
"If you officially start promoting your album, there will be another manager besides me, so don't worry!"
"Yes!"
First of all, there is a high possibility that the person who came first will go with the atmosphere set, so I decided not to care about that for now.
And a meeting with the agency meeting.
This is...
"Do we have a talented tester to make the song?"
"……? What?"
To sum it up, it's X.

8 604The Curio Shoppe
Kellan Klein is an ordinary college student with an average, if traumatic and painful past. Everyone grows up grappling with depression and anxiety that seem to be genetic in a house with parents that, while loving, fight all the time and have weird ideas about what kids should and shouldn't do, right? Everyone deals with bullying, racism, judgement on their romantic inclinations and their family's economic status and just general shittiness, right? All of Kellan's friends sure did, and for all of them, entertaiment media were a welcome escape from their painful, dreary lives. After all, who wouldn't want to sail the seas with Monkey D. Luffy and the Strawhats, or help Meng Hao con increasingly powerful and influential people, or join Cecil Harvey and his friends on their weird journey to save the world, or make friends with Peter Parker while pretending to not know he was everyone's favorite wall-crawling superhero? Kellan certainly wanted to, and while he pursued college to seek out a career he saw himself enjoying, something felt inexplicably empty about his life. So when a decidely sinister force kidnaps him and the prettiest man he's ever seen saves his life and offers him his wildest dreams, Kellan becomes the shopkeeper of a mysterious, dimension hopping shop, complete with a system that helps him acquire items. abilities, materials, and other cool shit to stock it with, as well as some other neat perks. Will Kellan become a boring overpowered MC, like the kind from web fiction that he reads to sate his boredom? Will he keep his generally kind, sweet nature despite the shit he's gone through and will go through, or will he inexplicably become a scary, violent, irrational arrogant douchebag? Will he use his newfound abilities to explore the multiverse and improve the lives of himself and others, or will he become his own antithesis, a purely mercantile jerk obsessed with money and profit, with no concern for anything that doesn't help or hurt his business? Find out in The Curio Shoppe! Author's note: Please suggest possible setting he could visit in the comments. I'll gather ones i'm familiar with, and at the end of every arc, a poll will be held to decide the next location he visits. There will be polls for other purposes, and I might not always go with the poll winner if I feel one of the other options is more fun to read/write about. I will not use the settings of other RRL writers without their permission.Do not ask for that, unless the author in question gives permission. Most settings he visits will be slightly AU in some way or another, but please remind me if I drift too far from canon unintentionally or characterize a character wrongly. This work will eventually fit all tags I selected once he visits universes suited to those tags, so don't ask when or where a given tag is coming. I do not own the cover art, it belongs to Nicholas Belanger Thiel, and I will stop using it if he asks me to. Kellan doesn't look like the old man on the cover, though once he acquires a disguise-type ability he may occasionally use that appearance. The tapir, however, will be a thing, as despite looking like a failed attempt at an elephant, tapirs are cool and this dragon finds them to be kinda cute. The art, along with more of Nicholas's pieces, can be found at https://www.artstation.com/artwork/51bXz
