Another day passed in a flash. Agwa spent all her energy on training. She also accumulated a considerable amount of star coins. She saved it all up in case of emergency. During these days she received calls and text messages from 'The disciple of tigress' and her family.
Under intense training, Agwa has a more thorough understanding of the original voice. It can be considered good, but not enough for big stages like 'The Singer-songwriter'. She practiced the song 'I will show you' over and over again, and although she can't hit all the high notes, at least she's not out of tune for the most part. She just needs to use the 'perfect singing' when the time comes and all is well. With more confidence, Agwa ended her training.

On the morning of the 16th, Agwa dressed in a comfortable white shirt and skinny jeans paired with white shoes and sunglasses. She also wore a mask as she didn't want to be recognized by anyone, especially now that the original owner was hated to death. She's also not in the best state due to lack of sleep. She had woken up in the middle of the night due to a nightmare and until now she still had lingering fears.
It could be seen that although Agwa made a plan calmly and rationally after crossing over, and looks like she had accepted all that was happening easily and looks okay on the outside but in fact the actual spirit was still a little tense and nervous. Everything seems to happen so fast that she's about to take her first step towards achieving her dreams.
"Gurl! aren't you glad your pretty?It's not you who should be ready, It's the world that should be ready." Agwa said, trying to cheer herself up. She hurriedly got into her car with the clothes she'd wear to the stage.
While driving, she turns on some music, trying to get the feel of this world's music. The sky was inlaid with gold borders; the scenery was beautiful, but no one appreciated it. Everyone was busy enough to care.
Three songs are done and she arrives at the KBS Film and Television Cultural City. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Agwa wears a cap keeping the brim very low.
The person in charge of receiving Agwa is someone named Gaeul. She is twenty-three this year with short hair and wearing a casual dress.
"Hello Ms. Agwa, Im Gaeul your temporary assistant in the show." Gaeul introduced herself politely at the same time looking at Agwa secretly. She's assigned to Agwa since no one else was willing. It's not like she has a choice, and it's already better than being sent to labor or worst being cut off the show.
'Wow! even with the mask on, you can tell that she's really pretty. And how long is that leg?' Gaeul enviously thought.
''Nice to meet you, Gaeul." Agwa greeted her while bowing her head. She's also feeling stange since it's not the welcome she expected. She expected to be snobbed at or even ridiculed.
'Guess I read too many dramas' Agwa sighs inwardly.
Agwa really thought too much. Big companies still have basic etiquette that they should have. And Gaeul is an intern, so she still has to pay attention to her attitude when facing an artist or anyone, even Agwa.
Temporary assistant or Music partner is given to every guest participating in 'The singer-songwriter' because the singers invited by the show group are all seniors or top stars. In case their personality is dull and have no variety show effect, it is necessary for someone to control the field. The music partners are all internal hosts of KBS and they can also gain popularity on the show.
Gaeul originally felt a little disappointed being assigned to Agwa. Who would be happy to be with someone blackened out by the whole network. But she still accepted since it's not like the focus will be on her. She just needs to follow the routine, have as little as possible conversation, and minimize her existence.
Gaeul led Agwa inside the building without bothering to have a small talk or even introduce some of the facilities on the way, a stark contrast to when the original owner was still a top star with huge fandom. Agwa also didn't care; her thoughts were occupied with the possible mechanics of the show. She heard some info that it would be completely different than before, but she was never given the complete information.
The building is full of TV station staff. It is not surprising that there are celebrities who come and go. No one stare at herself either, or the classic scene of someone purposely bumping into her and mocking her.
'Cannon fodder we're you at.' Agwa funnily thought.
They first went to the program center to meet the program producer, Kim Jihyun. Kim Jihyun is 44 years old this year but still looks like she's in her late 20's; she is a middle-aged woman with a strong personality. She just nodded her head at Agwa and completely ignored her.
The recording site of 'The singer-songwriter' is big enough to accommodate 1000 spectators. As one of its popular variety shows, the KBS STATION is willing to spend money. Stage equipment such as lights, digital silicon box mobile light stands, effects, equalizers, fireworks, frequency dividers, compressors and other audio equipment are excellent, and the stage effect is evident.
Agwa looks through all of this in amazement. Though she has the memory of the original owner, it's still her first time being in an actual recording studio. Unfortunately, she didn't have time to take it all in when Gaeul dragged her towards the waiting room for the invited guest. The door was opened and there were already a few people in the room. All of them looked in Agwa's direction.
Agwa. "........"
Agwa stood there stunned. She unconsciously put one hand on her hips with her chest out( a habit she formed unconsciously when she was feeling intimidated) and stood there silently, looking back at everyone in the room.
Gaeul waited for Agwa to greet everyone, but her artist just stood there, looking as if she's assessing everyone in the room.
'What the actual F-- are you doing? you even had your hand on your hips. Missy those were veterans in the industry, your not intimidating no one.' Gaeul embarrassingly thought and hurriedly pulled on Agwa's shirt.
Agwa's clothes were suddenly pulled by Gaeul and that's when she woke up and realize what she was doing. She hurriedly bowed down.
'Wow Agwa! way to show an impressive first impression.' Agwa embarrassedly thought. While her head was down she heard a chuckle and a 'tsk' from someone in the room.
Acting as if she didn't care, Agwa stood up gracefully and unhurriedly removed her mask.
'Show is on Bitches!'
