Chereads / The Idol Life / Chapter 3 - Another

Chapter 3 - Another

As Junho spent the day with Choo-hyun which he learned they were just friends who held the same dream, only the two of them knew what they were planning to become, Choo-hyun told him the story of how they saw each other auditioning and since then they've been auditioning together as it was better than being alone.

Although it was disappointing but still he was glad that Bae Choo-hyun was somewhat receptive, as soon as he got home he immediately opened his system to see.

[ Hidden Quest : Everyone starts somewhere! QUEST CLEARED! ]

[ Rewards : 1 Draw Ticket! +0.5 Singing! ]

"As long as my singing and voice improves that would be the best as for my dancing skills I think I know how to increase it for the time being, now let's at least use one Draw! ]

He didn't know what would happen but suddenly he heard a ring and a box appeared in front of him, he immediately opened it and a white light overcame him blinding him, as soon as it was done he saw there was a a pair of black knee pads in front of him.

"What the hell?"

He grabbed and instinctively told.

'Observe'

[ Knee pads of Grace! ]

[ A not so regular knee pads ]

[ Functions : Improves Dancing Stat Accumulation when practicing, lessens pain when practicing! ]

Junho's eyes widened as soon as he saw the description, he couldn't believe this was the thing he needed, he immediately changed clothes, his room was large enough that he could dance without any issue but it wasn't large enough for him to do some crazy choreography, even though he was not that good and honestly bad at dancing for now he wanted to practice to do better, he immediately bought from the shop.

[ Bought 'Sixth Sense' - TCN Choreography ]

[ Bought 'Sixth Sense' - TCN Song lyrics ]

He knew it was one the hardest to dance and sing at the same time yet it was also why he chose it because he knew if he was to master it then slowly build his foundation he would make it.

"All right let's do this!"

Junho said as he began dancing, though the system gave him the entire choreography that didn't mean his body would move the way he wanted to and thus began his slow training session!

[ Daily Quest Unlocked! Practice a Choreography Everyday for an Hour! ]

[ Rewards : +0.02 Dance Stat! ]

As Junho was practicing Jihyun looked at him from the door, she had a smile on her face as her brother didn't give up on his dreams yet, she supported him from her heart in fact the reason why she took her course was for her brother, not only did she want to manage the family funds he also wanted to manage her brother's career to help him grow, she then closed the door as she went back into her own room to study.

"That Idiot"

Bae Choo-hyun was at her own room waiting for emails, texts or even letters that she got accepted into an agency, she knew how hard the life would be and what to expect but tonight she hated one person the most.

"If he didn't write that damned song I wouldn't be like this."

She tried forgetting it but the lyrics just hit her too hard, she imagined herself or rather believe Junho sang it specifically for her, she didn't deny that Junho was handsome they both knew that once they were trainees they would be banned from dating that's why Bae Choo-hyun kept a certain distance from all of her male classmates except for Junho.

The reason why she was close to him was because they had the same dream even though it was embarrassing for her that Junho saw auditioning as well she didn't mind, ever since then they auditioned together but somehow she felt that Junho immediately became more mature over the summer she couldn't put her finger on it but she knew he had changed, she didn't know if it was for the better or for the worse but she knew was that she had to do her best since Junho had improved.

"Tomorrow I'll start practicing too."

-

After doing his new daily quests Junho laid down his bed, he saw his stats increase and agreed that it was a hard choreography to master all the while singing it, he wondered how they even practiced it but this was a good thing as hard work pays off eventually.

He then saw it was still early, he had finished reading his textbooks earlier before he practiced although he wanted to do more he had nothing on his mind until.

"Ah right, I still have one ticket"

Soon he a chest appeared in front of him once more, he opened it but this time he closed his eyes, he then felt something heavy in his hands.

"A guitar? Observe"

[ A Regular New Guitar, it has no special properties ]

"Well that sucks, Oh!"

He suddenly had an idea, he opened his computer, it had a webcam which was enough he even tested it, he logged in to his Vtube account and thought of posting covers as well as originals from time to time, he searched the lyrics for a famous song but then.

"How the hell doesn't he exist!? I swore he's here somewhere"

He searched for his favorite song but alas it was nowhere to be found even the artist, he then searched the song in his shop to his surprise it was there!

[ Can't help Falling in love - E.P. 10,000 ]

It was one of the most expensive things he saw but he decided to purchase it anyway, the information then appeared his brain, as a producer in his past life when it came down to creating music, mixing, even recording there was nothing he could do wrong but this time with the limitation of having nothing yet he had to make do of what he had.

He turned on the computer and began recording, this time he didn't even need to check on the chords as he had memorized it he only needed the lyrics so he could affirm that what he was singing was correct.

"Hello everyone my name is Jun, today I'm going to sing you a song"

"Wise Men Say"

-

Junho uploaded it, he took on the name Jun as he stated earlier, he felt that it was the best for now as it could be changed later, he closed his computer and slept soundly unbeknownst to him he had already stepped one step closer to his goals.

[ First Time? QUEST CLEARED! ]

[ Rewards : 5 Draw Tickets! + 0.5 Singing! +0.5 Charisma! ]

As Junho fell asleep and his video uploaded he would soon wake up to a surprise.
