Sunday, 10 a.m.
A woman stepped off the subway and sighed, fixing her disheveled hair.
‘Ugh, I came all the way from Yongin just to check one advertisement…!’
It pained her to have spent four hours of her precious weekend just commuting, but it was a grave she dug for herself.
The subway ad campaign she had spearheaded—from fundraising to the slogan vote—had been displayed on the electronic board at Apgujeong Station since last Friday.

“Wow, damn….”
She had even created a social media account under the name ‘fireworksday,’ because she was operating as anonymous “ㅇㅇ” on an anonymous bulletin board. She had gone all out for Ji Hwa Sung. Missing the golden opportunity for a photo of the ad was simply out of the question.
Especially after how perfect Ji Hwa Sung had been in the 4th episode of Targeting Star that aired just the day before.
– “I’ve already performed on stage with Logan once, right? So… I want to trust him.”
<Unlike other trainees, Trainee Ji Hwa Sung stands out for his trust in Logan. What will happen to the ‘Calendar’ team?>
Not only did Hwa Sung support Logan amidst subtle internal team politics, but they also delivered an amazing performance together!
– “No, Logan! You’re an idiot for doing that.”
– “Huh? Stupid? Did you just call me stupid?”
– “Uh, that’s not what I meant!”
– “I know what ‘stupid’ means, okay!”
On top of that, their chemistry as peers was setting hearts on fire!
With SNS and community forums buzzing with comments like, [Ji Hwa Sung doesn’t seem that bad?], and [He’s not trying to sell a personality, he’s not character washing], [1] it was the perfect viral moment.
‘The ad photos came out great. No empty spaces in the layout, colors are on point… God, it’s perfect even to my eyes!’
Ignoring the stares of passersby, she kneeled and snapped picture after picture of the ad, sighing as she stared at Ji Hwa Sung smiling brightly on her phone screen.
“Our Hwa Sung, with his talent, star power, and looks, his debut is basically guaranteed… I mean, he’s even doing well in the rankings.”
Despite the promising situation, she couldn’t help but sigh.
The other digital billboards at Apgujeong Station gave away the reason.

People are easily swayed by visuals.
Even though she knew in her head that Ji Hwa Sung was in a stable position for debut, seeing other trainees with such flashy ads in an expensive subway station made her anxious.
Sure, it was understandable that Son Jae Ha, currently the most popular trainee on Targeting Star, Liu Wei with his massive Chinese fandom, and Logan, with his retriever-like looks and genius, were making big waves.
