In this Life, I'll be the Biggest Star in the Universe: Chapter 008

Chapter 3. End of the year evaluation.

After the lesson on the first day, daily life went by normally.

The kid's attitude towards me seemed to have changed, but it was certainly a change for the better. (Same as chapter 1, Wooju refers to the members/trainees when he says, 'kids')

How should describe I this?

At first, I felt completely like an outsider waiting in front of a sign that read, 'Entry prohibited!', but now I can say it felt like I was allowed to enter onto the fence.

It was a relief that the kids were nice.

However the peacefulness of daily life, which seemed to go on smooth, was shattered when a new incident occurred.

Early December.

While practicing a choreography, the door to the practice room opened. As soon as we saw director Cho Kyuhwan's face, the youngest quickly turned off the MR.

"Hello, director!"

"Oh, okay."

Director Cho Kyuhwan smiled lightly as he was greeted.

"Phew, the smell of sweat. You all must have been practicing really hard. I came down because I had something to tell you. It's not a big deal, so relax."

He held out a paper.

"Your end of the year evaluation assignment has come out."

"Really?"

Everyone gathered next to Kim Bijoo who received the paper. A notice was written on the piece of paper printed in the neat official form.

[2013 JOINT END OF THE YEAR EVALUATION ANNOUNCEMENT]

- LOCATION: Taehwa High school's auditorium

- DATE: Dec 28, 2013 (SAT)

- PARTICIPATING AGENCIES: DNS MEDIA, LEMON ENTERTAINMENT, WHITE ENTERTAINMENT, BIG BROTHER COMPANY, EOULLIM ENTERTAINMENT

- ASSIGNMENT: A performance that combines two different songs into one theme

- Traffic conditions around the day may be confusing, so please inform the parents of the trainees in advance

Unlike those who looked at the notice with a nervous expression, I was spacing out.

What's an end of the year evaluation?

I know about the monthly evaluation though.

If an ordinary high school student takes a mock test every month, idol trainees then take a test called, 'monthly evaluation'.

It's the same that it's still a test, but isn't run by the state.

It's the same that you'll get stressed out depending on your grades.

The difference is that high school students don't get cut off for failing their mock exam, but trainee's contract are immediately terminated if their skills changes for 2-3 months depending on the results of the monthly evaluation.
