From Thug to Idol: Transmigrating to a Survival Show

Chapter 264 My Visual Pick

Chapter 264 My Visual Pick

Lin Zhi walked away before June could say anything. June shook his head, following after him nonchalantly. He entered the room and sat on the seat that had his name. They were seated according to their ranks, so he sat at the second seat on the second row. There was a wide screen before them and numerous cameras capturing their reactions. Then, the screen lit up, revealing the stage they just performed on. Minho stood at the very center, a proud smile on his face. "Truly, the trainees have come so far," he started off. "I still remember when they struggled to sing the signal song and complained about the difficult dance. However, now, they sang and danced with ease. Proud is an understatement of what I'm currently feeling. Let us give them a round of applause!" The audience cheered loudly, and the trainees backstage, too, clapped for themselves. "Well, the night is still young, and we still have plenty of time before the voting officially closes," Minho said. "The time right here," he pointed to the leftmost screen, "is indicative of the time left when you can send stars for your favorite trainees! Make use of this time well, starlights. One vote can make a huge difference!" "Now," Minho said. "To ease your nerves a bit, Rising Stars has prepared some clips for you, dear starlights—unreleased clips you have never seen before!" With that, the lights on the stage turned dark, and the LED screen lit up. The television for the trainees showed the video, too. - I wonder what it is this year.

- I hope they do that ranking thing again. - Oh, they're definitely doing the ranking again. It's iconic! Whimsical and playful music filled the dome, and the screen showed the photos of the 20 trainees, all cut in circles and displayed on the wall. One by one, the trainees entered the room, each with their unique personality. The audience laughed when C-Jay entered doing a moonwalk, and not even a second later, Daeho came in, stopping when he saw the dirty trail that C-Jay had made. "Ah, who's the loser who did the moonwalk?" Daeho exclaimed. C-Jay pouted and pointed at the tall trainee. "You're just jealous you can't do a moonwalk!" The trainees' faces were shown in a collage, then blurred out. Right after, the words—"Who's your visual pick?" were shown on the screen. - I knew it! I love this segment so much. - True, true. It's as important as a debut spot if we're being honest. Each trainee would pick one trainee—one they found the most handsome. Then, the top 5 would only be revealed today!

C-Jay smiled mischievously as soon as it was announced. "Can I pick myself? After all, I am quite handsome." "No," the crew member deadpanned, causing C-Jay to sigh in disappointment.

Anthony couldn't help but pursed his lips. "This is unfair. Nobody's going to pick me!" Johnny, on the other hand, confidently winked at the camera. "Oh, I'm definitely in there. In fact, I'm counting on all of you to make me number one!"

The room was filled with laughter, the tension of the competition melting away for a second.

Bin emerged from the screen with a playful grin. He began describing his personal visual pick. "Well, he's a bit of a character. He's tall, kind of built like a wall," he chuckled. "Now, I don't want to be this one," Johnny said. "Built like a wall?" C-Jay exclaimed. "That's definitely Daeho!" "His hair is always fluffy, too—like a dog. However, he's got a chin that's narrow on the ends, and he also kinda looks like an emo skater boy." "I already know who it is," Akira chuckled. "It's definitely not me," Johnny said. "My chin is not narrow." Top 5—Johnny. The trainees laughed at Johnny, teasing him for even aspiring to take first place. "Shut up! My chin is really not narrow. And what? An emo skater boy? I don't even know how to skate!" he defended himself. His complaints were quickly drowned out when new trainees came to the screen. Anthony stepped forward with a blurred-out photo in his hands. "I wish I could be reborn as this guy. He's tall, with a face that could launch a thousand ships. But he kind of smiles like a fool." - HAHAHA. Why are the trainees throwing out insults here and there? -They're all very handsome, though!

Zeth was the next one to speak. "You know when I first met this dude, I thought he was pretty handsome. But boy, does he have a temper!" Top 4—Ren.

And just like that, the camera panned to Ren, and the crowd burst into laughter since Ren was seen scolding Zeth, proving that he really had a short fuse. However, when he noticed the camera, he smiled—like a fool, causing the trainees to laugh out loud once more. June enjoyed watching these types of rankings. He was definitely not expecting to be a part of it in any way. He remembered voting for Jisung since he was the first trainee he saw, and he thought that he was very handsome. He also didn't want to be called since it seemed like the trainees who were part of the ranking were slightly being roasted, too. However, dread filled his heart when he saw Casper on the screen. "I like his eyes. They're like a cat's," Casper smiled, causing June to sigh. C-Jay was shown next. "I mean, let's be real, I was definitely more handsome than this guy when the show started out." "He's charming," Jisung smiled. "And he has a smile that could light up the whole room!" C-Jay, never one to shy away from expressing his thoughts, chimed in, "It's insane how much he's improved. I saw his face glow and improve in a split second, and it wasn't just my imagination."

He then leaned closer to the mic and whispered. "I swear, it was like his face was charging up like a superhero." The audience laughed, thinking everything was a joke. However, it really wasn't. C-Jay, indeed, saw June's upgrade in real life. Amid the laughter from the audience, Jinsol shared his own memorable encounter. "I didn't notice him at first, but one day, we crossed paths in the hallways, and I had to stop because his skin and face were practically glowing. Please spill your skincare routine. Your face is smoother than a baby's butt." Top 3—June.

June covered his face, feeling a bit embarrassed. - He really improved so much. My baby June. - I still remember his pink mask face. I thought he was ugly back then since he covered his face. - Oh, that was forever ago. If this was a book, then more than 200 chapters would have passed already!
