GANGSTER IDOL SURVIVAL SYSTEM

Chapter 170: The Chois

Choi Min-ah and Choi Si-woo, two prominent tycoons and one of the shareholders of the entertainment giant Azure, have been embroiled in a major corruption scandal.

The revelations came to light on Thursday when Azure's internal auditing team discovered a web of unauthorized transactions and unethical dealings, prompting a swift investigation by law enforcement agencies.

The scandal revolves around a series of dubious financial transactions, lavish spending, and alleged collusion with influential entertainment companies. Here are the key developments in this unfolding scandal:

Although not that surprising, Choi Min-ah and Choi Si-woo jointly held a million-dollar membership at the prestigious Pierre Country Club, known for its exclusive clientele and exorbitant fees. The scandal takes a darker turn, however, with allegations of collusion between the millionaire tycoons and some of the entertainment industry's biggest players. Notably, companies like StarBoat, JellyShrimp, and Cylinder are under scrutiny for their involvement. The investigation has revealed that these entertainment giants allegedly played a role in rigging trainees that participated in the third season of the popular talent show, 'Rising Stars' into the final group.

Both tycoons have been subjected to questioning, and their financial records are being meticulously scrutinized. The authorities are determined to uncover the full extent of their involvement in these alleged corrupt practices.

June, a trainee who catapulted to stardom on the fourth season of 'Rising Stars,' has been a subject of fascination for fans and industry insiders alike due to his meteoric rise from the lowest ranks to a remarkable 11th place. However, the recent stabbing incident involving June and his fellow trainees revealed that he is Choi Joon-ho, a past Phoenix trainee.

Speculations arise that Choi Joon-ho may be the son of the influential Choi couple. Choi Joon-ho's past remains clouded in mystery, with virtually no trace of his life available online. This has only fueled rumors and conjecture about his connection to the Choi family.

An anonymous source under the name "AlphaMale" has provided compelling evidence suggesting that June has been living a life of luxury. The anonymous source submitted a series of photos that depict June adorned in high-end, luxury shoes valued at over a hundred thousand dollars, casually gifting Colexx watches, and dining at the exclusive Pierre restaurant.

Many are now questioning whether June's rise in 'Rising Stars' truly reflects his talent and hard work or if it is instead the result of his family's deep pockets. Adding fuel to the fire is June's recent win against the most popular team in the last mission of 'Rising Stars.'

Does June really deserve his rank on 'Rising Stars?'

Or is he yet another nepo baby?

"June! June!" Minjun banged on the older guy's door as he finished reading the article that BannChu had posted.

"What?" June asked with his earphones on. He had been listening to 'Tie Me Up' since it was revealed, and he has been lost in his own world ever since.

"You have to see this," Minjun said in a serious voice.

June clicked his tongue as he realized the seriousness in Minjun's tone.

"What?" he repeated, opening the door and looking down at the small kid.

"Something bad is happening," Minjun barged into his room and plopped down on the hard floor. He showed June the article posted on BannChu and June read it with furrowed eyebrows.

Minjun gauged his reaction, trying to figure out his feelings.

He's probably disappointed, right? He had made it this far into the show with his pure hard work, but he's being accused of being a nepo baby and rigging the show.
