From Thug to Idol: Transmigrating to a Survival Show

Chapter 524 Up All Night

Chapter 524 Up All Night

June stayed up all night trying to come up with a simple choreography for Luster. He realized that the group was over-complicating the choreography in the chorus because they wanted to show their fans an overwhelming performance.

However, he realized that their title track was the overwhelming performance they were looking for.

This meant that the B-side track was the time to slow it down, keep it simple, and just have a good time.

Being in the beginner's class not only helped him upgrade his dance skills but also gave him exactly what he needed—a simple choreography that lots of people could dance to.

June even thoroughly scrolled through LikLok, an app where idols uploaded their dances and silly little challenges, to get more inspiration. He found that songs with simple choreography was a great hit to the general public.

This merely strengthened his belief that their choreography needed to be simple.

So, he took the initiative to finish the chorus' choreography so he could show it to his members tomorrow.

However, being preoccupied with making the choreography, he became oblivious to a discourse happening online.

'June in TRIGGER's beginner's class! Fluke or Fact?'

- I was one of the dancers! He really was in the studio tonight. I wasn't able to take photos because Mentor Gun forbade us from doing so.

- Please describe what he looks like in real life!

- He's ethereal! The others were right when they said he didn't have any pores. He also smelled very good—like manly baby powder.

- Manly baby powder? That's exactly what I feel June would smell like.

- Are we just going to believe that this happened? There are literally no photos that suggest it's a fact!

- Please take my word for it! I won't lie about this. I'm just very happy to share what happened tonight.

- Then, tell us more about what happened.

- Let's see…June danced to Boom Up! by MOOMOO, and he nailed it. I honestly thought he wouldn't be able to pull it off because he was already great at boy group dances, but he was very graceful. I believe he's shaping up to be EVE's main dancer!

- A main vocalist also being a main dancer? How is that possible?

- Girl, we better add 'main visual' too. He's really much more handsome in real life!

- He's really an all-rounder, isn't he?

- I'm not satisfied. I need more stories.

- The user upstairs is so demanding.

- Fine! This is a bomb, so prepare yourselves. June danced to 'Bodyroll,' and he showed his abs! They were very toned.

- …

- I believed the user from the beginning, but I feel like they're lying now!

- Yeah, you almost had us there. I was genuinely happy that June visited the dance studio, but it seemed like it was all a fantasy.

- What the heck? I'm telling the truth!

- June showing his abs? That's impossible.

- Literally. Impossible.

"What's with these posts saying you revealed your abs to the world?" Casper asked as soon as June went out of his room.

June's eyebrows furrowed when he saw Casper lying by himself on the couch, in the same position he saw him yesterday.

"Did you even sleep?" June asked.

Casper didn't respond and continued scrolling through his phone.

"So…I know you went to the dance studio yesterday. Did you really show your abs?" he repeated.

June sighed, not really knowing why Casper was asking such questions.

"No," June lied.

Since there wasn't any evidence that June indeed revealed his abs to the beginner's class yesterday, he decided to bury the incident in the sand. He would just act like it didn't happen in the first place.

Casper sighed in relief. "That's what I thought."

June shook his head and looked around the dorm room.

"Why don't you wake the members up? I have to show you guys the choreography I came up with for Luster."

Casper's eyebrows raised in surprise.

"You already did it? We also tried brainstorming last night while you were in the dance studio, but we couldn't really think of anything," he confessed.

"I think I got it," June smirked. "I believe we've been over-

complicating things, and that's why we were having a hard time creating the choreography."

"You might be onto something," Casper said, nodding in agreement. "A simple dance actually goes better with the song."

June also nodded. "Do you want me to show you?" he asked.

Casper shook his head, making June's eyebrows furrowed.

"Why don't you show it to us later once we arrive home? We're going to have an important shoot today."

"Right, I nearly forgot," June said. "We have to film something again, right? Although, I wasn't really paying attention when Jay was explaining what we should do."

"Was it a teaser? Or the music video?" June asked, still trying to recall what they were going to film today.

Casper chuckled in amusement.

"Silly," Casper said. "We have to film 'The King's Joker' today! How could you forget?"

June froze when he heard the familiar name.

"The King's Joker?" he muttered, suddenly feeling apprehensive.

Oh no.

That only meant one thing.

He was going to see CHAOS once again.

***

They arrived at the studio with the seven members feeling excited and June feeling hesitant.

As they walked to the filming site, he began to think about his last interaction with Haruki.

A murderer.

That was what Haruki called him.

It seemed like he had temporarily forgotten about this because of the busy comeback preparations. However, it all came back to him now.

They finally arrived at the filming site, a large studio similar to that of King of Kings. However, this time, instead of the dark interior, the room was all-white, almost like an escape room.

It didn't take long before the members of CHAOS arrived, bowing in unison as they greeted the staff members. They also greeted the members of EVE; however, it was evident that the two groups were awkward with each other.

Being unable to see each other for more than two weeks also contributed to their awkwardness. As June glanced at each of the members, he was reminded of the monstrous talent that they had.

However, he smirked proudly when he realized that their team was already at par with these monstrous idols.

June suddenly felt a burning stare on the side of his face, causing him to evade his gaze from the other members. There, he saw Haruki staring at him with a blank expression.

Haruki kept his emotions well.

However, June couldn't be mistaken.

Haruki still hated him.
