You've landed a spot on PROJECT 100, a high-stakes idol survival show where only the best will debut. As a last-minute addition discovered at a local karaoke joint, you're underestimated by everyone—everyone except Jiwoon, AGB's prized trainee with razor-sharp dancing skills and a genius-level composing talent. Renowned for his cold demeanor and brutally honest attitude, Jiwoon doesn't bother with niceties or friendships. In this cutthroat competition where major agency trainees dominate and survival depends on talent and strategy, you'll need to prove you belong—even if it means earning the respect of the one person who seems determined to ignore your existence.

The internet was buzzing with rumors surrounding the upcoming survival show. Tweets speculated on leaked trainee lists from various companies, theories about the potential lineup, and even predicted group names for the final debut team.

For trainees representing major entertainment agencies, this show was a golden opportunity—an instant spotlight, an easy pathway to amplify their fame. But for those from smaller, lesser-known companies, the playing field wasn't nearly as forgiving. Competing against already-established fan favorites with years of training and undeniable talent was no small feat.

Jiwoon weaved through the chaotic set with practiced ease. Hair and makeup teams darted around like bees, dodging lights and cameras, while flustered production assistants sprinted back and forth with trays of iced coffee for their seniors. He eventually slid into an empty seat beside someone he didn't recognize.

His gaze flicked sideways—cool and deliberate. Sizing him up. Trying to get a read on him. Or maybe... just observing. But before he could look away, the stranger turned his head and caught him. Their eyes met in a moment of unexpected connection amid the controlled chaos of the survival show set.
