Chapter 32

Sorry for the late update

I got so busy this past few days hahahah

Anyways, enjoy reading!!!

Airtime

"Minjae, hahahaahaha you look great, that rice bag fits you! And what the hell is that wig.... It looks like severely burned spaghetti hahahahaah." Sehun was laughing his ass off, watching the first episode of Dream High with him.

They were currently in his apartment again, they both were free for the day so they decided to just go to his house and watch the first episode of Dream High together.

"And even then, I still am more handsome than you." He narcissistically rebuked.

"Tsk, you look too pretty for a guy" He glared at him for a second, but he enjoyed making fun of him too much, so he couldn't keep his eyes off the screen.

The filming of about the first half of the drama had gone successfully.

Not a lot had happened actually.

He had gotten a few quests from the system, which he completed. His acting skill had an inmense improvement since last time, he wondered when it would be maxed out. The rest of his attributes and the like had also gone up, but just not as much as acting.

========================

Aside from the things the system gave him, there was also a bit of real life development.

JYP loved his acting, so he asked him if he wanted to continue acting until his debut. His answer was naturally, "yes".

So after Dream High would be done airing, he would try and recommend him some dramas and movies to star in, he could decline if he wanted to of course, and he will do that if he plans on letting him star in an unsuccessful project.

He had knowledge about how well a drama did, he should make use of that.

Also, his chemistry with Suji and the others on set was quite good, although they hadn't really done all that much yet. He, Wooyoung and Taecyeon had gotten especially close, the rest he was just comfortable with, nothing out of the ordinary.

They fooled around quite a lot, teasing each other was the norm on the set.

Especially himself in the beginning, they really made fun of his clothes. Sehun wasn't the only one, sadly.

They had already completed filming the first few episodes of the drama, but they hadn't arrived to the juicy parts yet.

And with juicy, he means romance.

Technically, Suji will be stealing his first kiss, even though it wasn't truly his first time.

He was particularly interested in how he would affect some relationship of idols and other celebrities. Would they date other people, or would they not date at all?

It made it a bit hard on him, imagine he liked and started dating someone, let's take SNSD's Taeyeon for example.

She dated EXO's Baekhyun in the past, how was he supposed to live while knowing such a disturbing fact?

Besides, who would he really date anyway?

Right now, he didn't know. He didn't have any special feelings towards anyone he currently knew.

Sure, they were really pretty and all, but that isn't everything. He wasn't someone to get wooed by looks only.

On top of that, dating was something very risky and potentially dangerous for his, and her career. The fans could hate them, they could love them, it was unpredictable. But most of the time, it is the former.

He luckily hadn't gotten into disputes with his co-stars or anything like that as well, the interactions between him and the staff weren't bad at all. You'd actually be suprised by how much they joke around, it made working at the set all the more fun.

He made a few mistakes here and there, but his acting was absolutely legendary. It was sure to gain attention. He did a lot better than Soohyun did, so he wondered how his presence would affect the ratings, and the results.

Sehun stared at the tv, with his salty popcorn in hand, letting out a sigh of dissapointment, "Is it over already?"

Jaemin rolled up the sleeves of his sweater and stood up, "Yep, I have to go practice, and you?"

Sehun nodded and patted Jaemin on the shoulder, "Same, don't forget to check Dispatch, see if they released some articles about it"

They both walked to the front door.

"Right, see you at school bro" Jaemin did their usual handshake, a typical American one, and saw Sehun off.

"Later man" He waved back at him when he stepped out of the door, and got into the elevator.

Quite fascinating, that he had become such good friends with Sehun. Keep in mind, he was mentally a lot younger than him.

Yet, he still gets along with him well, probably because he is not only mature, but someone who can be immature and mature at times, just like him.

Their personalities matched, they also have a lot of other things in common.

It was amazing that the system could know such a thing, since they had become friends because of it. They also went to the same school, in the same year, in the same class. Like fate.

Sehun was a year older than him though, since he had skipped a year due to his high intelligence. Normally, he would have to call him hyung(~), but they treated each other as the same age.

He could now say that he at least had one good future celebrity friend, but Sehun wasn't his only friend of course.

Jinyoung was also a very good friend of his, they slept in the same bunk bed in the trainee dorm so it was natural that they began talking with each other. And suprisingly, he had a good personality that fit well with him.

He wasn't so close with the other GOT7 members yet, and some hadn't even arrived yet.

He looked at the time...

"A bit late, but that shouldn't matter"

He quickly picked up his phone from the couch and also went outside.

It wasn't that far if he had to walk to the JYP building, but it was still a solid 30 minutes if he didn't hurry, so he took his bike instead.

The weekly evaluation was today, something which every trainee has to attend. They do weight checks, ability progress checks, etc.

He cycled as hard as possible.
