"Come on.... Come on..."
Jaemin was walking at an unusually fast pace towards the weight checking room, he was 35 minutes late, and although that wasn't truly very late, it was still pretty late.
He really wanted to watch the first episode of his drama with Sehun, so he just took the risk.
The other trainees would have already finished their weight checks. And would be, by now, probably evaluated on their performances in their respective abilities already.
This all happened in the same room, so it was a bit embarrassing if you arrived too late, the others would stare at you. The one(s) who is/are in charge of evaluating you would also begin to scold you, how harsh that session of receiving criticism was depended on the person.
He quickly opened the door.
And...
He was right, the trainees had already completed the weight checks. Some of them were currently dancing to one of the routine songs of JYP, which is used purely for evaluating purposes.
One of the instructors spotted him and walked over to him.
The man crossed his arms in front of him, asking, "Name?"
He clearly tried to intimidate him, he was a bit taller than him, a bit broader and bigger as well, but it didn't faze him. He could literally put this man on the floor crying in pain in less than a second, so why would he need to be scared?
"Minjae" Here it comes.. Is what he thought. He didn't intend on engaging in a full-on fist fight of course, he just had to endure the scolding.
Some of the trainees had noticed him as well, they stopped looking at the performance of the other trainees and switched their attention over to him.
"Now for what reason are you late huh?" The man used a very loud voice, to make sure everyone in the room could hear it.
"I'm late because I'm late, no special reasons"
..
The man looked heavily irritated, Jaemin instantly knew that this man didn't like him at all, not even one bit. It even seemed like he detested him or something, his facial expression while looking at him was disgusting, like he was looking at a piece of trash.
'Aish~, this is going to be a hard day' he thought.
"I'll talk with you later, finish up your homework first, come to the second side branche of the cafeteria when you're done." And with homework, he meant the weight checks, dance and singing improvement etc. The man went out of the testing room and asked the one of the other instructors to evaluate him.
What a pain in the ass....
It looks like he had finally gained an enemy in the company.
Most of.., no, all of the people he had met in the company so far had treated him very well, maybe even too well sometimes. He was talented, humble and respectable towards his elders, and he never truly did anything wrong. Even if you tried to hate him, you would probably have a hard time doing so. Especially when you are as handsome as he is.
He made a mistake today, the same one he had made on his first day of high school, arriving too late. And it seemed like this instructor was planning on taking advantage of that fact.
He will just have to see what he does, if it isn't anything too bad, he would just listen to him, since he was the one at fault here.
He couldn't act like the gangster he wanted to be, he would get in a lot of drama if he did that. It was too much of a hassle, so he would behave, if he acted within his bounds.
Jinyoung was a witness to this event, he watched him do his tests and walked up to him after he had completed them, without any trouble of course.
"You okay? Why were you late?"
"You know I'm shooting a drama right?"
"Yeah, Dream High right?"
"Mhm, the first episode aired today, and I wanted to see it"
"Aahh, got it, be careful next time though, and good luck with the teacher"
"Thanks"
Ugh.... He was already getting tired just by thinking about it, all of his energy just flowed out of his body. He walked towards the cafeteria where he was supposed to meet him and heard his phone going off, multiple times.
*BuzzBuzz* (SFX Phone Vibrations) [ Author note: I suck at these ]
'Oh?'
He grabbed his phone out of his pocket, and oh my jezus he had never seen Sehun this flipped out before.
He had sent about twenty messages containing screenshots of comments about Dream High, with the caption, "Read these and spring will come"
So these were the reactions of the masses regarding his acting, huh? He wanted to check them out as soon as possible.
He browsed to a few of the screenshots, and a smile crept up his handsome face. He couldn't prevent the corners of his mouth almost reaching his ears. Pure happiness was basically plastered on his face.
Almost all of the comments were positive, the negative ones could even be counted on one hand. Moreover, the negative ones weren't even that bad.
They mostly referred to the dissatisfaction they had about his actions in the drama, not really about himself or his acting.
And then....
And then the positive ones.
Crazy, absolutely crazy.
He could already see the most loyal fanbase in the whole world starting to bloom, a new saesang fan of his even gave it an outrageous term, (The Servants of The Korean Prince)
Here were a few examples of the comments,
"Eureka! I have found my new husband!" - Minjaelover234
"Oppa, saranghae(~)!" - Minjae's Loyal Servant
"I am currently not clear about my sexual preference! No wait... I know for sure that I am now gay!" - Hyung(~)of Minjae
"How does he look so good even with a wig and a rice bag, that's just unbelieveable" - Anonymous
"Not only is he handsome, he is so good at acting as well, Suzy is lucky!" - Anonymous
"I will vote for every award he is nominated for!" - MoneyIsBae
"I want to violate him... Let's sue him for letting womens' hearts falter!" - LittleLolita999
"He is clearly the best new actor of 2011!" - Supporter of The Korean Prince
"+1" - Minjae's Wife
"+2" - WhiteRice
The start of a new era, where he is the top star, will begin....
Ah well, he first had to get scolded by his instructor.
He had already spotted him, he was standing before the doorway with is phone in his hand, it was noticable that he made sure to check if nobody was around.
"I'm here sir"
The man looked at him, and he froze for a second.
Not because of his stare, but because of the new quest that had just shown up.
[ Ding! ]
[ Quest: You can't accept this! ]
{ The man in front of you is going to not only scold you, but hit you. At first, it will be a few light taps on the head and the face, but they will get worse. He is clearly violating rules here, How much can you endure? Let the man pay, in your own way. }
[ Reward: Depends on the way of completing the quest ]
He had never gotten that kind of reward before, he could make some solid profit if he did this quest correctly.
Moreover, this man was going to actually hit him, and more than once at that? Who the hell does he think he is?
'Okay... Calm down, let's figure this out'
He couldn't hit him, no matter how good he was at avoiding CCTV, he just couldn't. There was too much evidence of him being at the scene, he couldn't give this man any physical damage, the only thing he will get out of that is a lawsuit.
He has to somehow make this man pay...
"That's easy"
