IDOL LIFE THAT STARTS WITH MILITARY WRITING

Episode 2

"It's the first time you've come in military uniform. I heard you were discharged from the military today?"

"Yes, that's right."

I was standing in front of a camera and a few people, in an awkward position like a mannequin.

The broadcasting station we arrived at following the writer.

The moment I arrived at the broadcasting station and stood in front of the camera, the writer's gaze, which had been treating me so kindly, suddenly changed.

The eyes of a chef looking at fresh ingredients. The author was looking at me like a skilled chef, thinking about how to cook me.

If it were my normal self, I would have immediately left this uncomfortable seat, but the reason I am quietly enduring this uncomfortable seat is...

-Debut as an idol (0/1)

compensation: ???

Debuting as an idol. It felt like such a sudden thing to me, and many thoughts came to mind while I was coming here.

'Is this the path to success?'

'But idol? Is this really the right thing for me?'

I have never questioned a given goal so much. What on earth is this goal? Is this the final test given to me?

The time given to me was too short to make a decision right away, but I didn't want to let this opportunity go to waste.

'The timing is so perfect. I met a writer from a broadcasting station right after the goal of debuting as an idol was revealed? There must be some kind of connection.'

It's confusing, but I have to be true to the current situation. I don't know what impact this opportunity will have on me.

I calmed my dizzy mind and focused on the present reality.

"Can I ask what Seonwoo Rin's family relationships are like?"

A man who introduced himself as EPD, whose expression never changed, asked me a question for the first time.

"Yes, I live with my grandmother and younger sister."

Even though I only brought up the story of my grandmother and younger sister, the eyes of the two writers sitting next to me at the EPD sparkled.

Unlike the reactions of those writers, EPD continued to ask questions calmly.

"You live with your grandmother and younger sister, so where are your parents?"

"My father passed away when I was young, and I haven't seen my mother since I was in elementary school."

"Ah, I see."

After that, the trivial questions continued. They were mainly about my relationship with my grandmother and younger sibling and my childhood.

"Could it be that your decision to give up on going to college and enlist in the military early had something to do with your family circumstances?"

"I don't think there isn't any."

The writer was so excited by my answer that he wrote something down.

Perhaps, in the author's notes, the story of a poor boy who challenges himself to become an idol while living in poverty and despair is being created.

"Then have you ever learned how to sing or dance?"

"No, never."

"Have you ever tried it as a hobby? These days, there are a lot of dance clubs and things like that."
