ERIC [ HOST ]: Good evening everyone! The trainees were given the difficult concept evaluation, where they were required to create a line distribution, make many important decisions, and tonight, they'll perform the songs while keeping the concept in mind. Quite intense, huh?
ERIC [ HOST ]: Any trainees or groups you're especially excited about?
AUDIENCE: /shouts different names/
ERIC [ HOST ]: Ah, that's great! Let's welcome the first group to the stage, the night will start off with a hip hop based song.
[ 6 trainees looking very 'cool' walk onto the stage ]
ERIC [ HOST ]: Please introduce yourselves.
HAND IN HAND GROUP: United by one dream, hello we are United!
ERIC [ HOST ]: /turns serious/ And this dream is to debut, correct?
IM JAYDEN [ 21 ]: Yes, it is!
ERIC [ HOST ]: Well, this performance will definitely determine your chances of debut, so you better pull out an amazing performance.
IM JAYDEN [ 21 ]: /nervous/ Oh, uh, yeah!
WERE THE TRAINEES UNITED AS A TEAM DURING THEIR PRACTICE?
OH HWIYOUNG [ 4 ]: /puts down ear buds after the song finishes/ Oh gosh, the raps are going to be difficult.
MATSUDA AKIYA [ 9 ]: I'm sure we'll be capable of performing them though, don't worry!
KIM SEYONG [ 22 ]: We should worry about line distributions first. It might be a bit challenging to distribute them.
NA DAEHWI [ 16 ]: Even though I'd like to show my rap skills, I want the main rappers to receive most of the rap skills. They deserve it the most!
KIM JAEYONG [ 3 ]: Wow, you're so considerate, Daehwi!
IM JAYDEN [ 21 ]: I don't mean to appear as selfish, but I was actually hoping to get a few rap and vocal parts. I'm afraid if my rank doesn't improve, I'll be eliminated soon.
MATSUDA AKIYA [ 9 ]: Ah, that's understandable! Of course you can.
THE DOOR OPENS LOUDLY, SCARING MANY OF THE TRAINEES
