The music industry is a tough industry. There are so many steps you need to go through before you can debut. And the music industry takes luck. And a lot of it.
You don't know how many companies rejected me before I could become a trainee. I was rejected by the bigger companies before I became a trainee for a more indie company called Core Contents Media.
I'm glad to say that I debuted about five months ago with an album.
The outcome was better than I expected!
I saw on twitter that Namjoon was listening to my album and I got so happy. He's one of my biggest idols and I adore him and BTS.

I was walking to the library to return and look for some books.
I was already carrying two books in my arms and I was looking through a long and tall shelf of books trying to find something that seemed interesting.
I saw something that caught my eye, but it was all the way on the top...
I tried to reach for it, but another hand reached it before I could. I looked to my right and saw a tall man with a black mask covering his nose and mouth.
He wore a beige knitted sweater, black jeans, and a pair of Converse high tops. His hair was swept back neatly.
He gave me the book, but when I looked at him, his eyes went wide.
He pulled down his mask and... it was Namjoon.
"Wait... oh my god, are you RM? I-I'm a huge fan," I said, trying to stay quiet. It was a library after all.
"I'm a huge fan too," he said, blushing. "you're so talented that I can't choose a favorite song..." he chuckled and rubbed the back of his neck.
"Aw," I gave him a hug and pulled away a bit after. "hey, why don't we get outta here and go to the cafe down the street? We can actually talk and not whisper. How's that sound?" I smiled.
"S-sure," Namjoon smiles widely, his dimples on full display.

We went to the cafe. It's rather small and very cute.

We sat down further away from the windows so that we wouldn't get spotted. It happens a lot for him, but not as much for me.
We sipped our coffees and talked. It felt as if we've met years ago, even though we just met.
"Are you going to be releasing anymore of your work soon?" Namjoon asked.
"Actually, I am," I said. "it's a work in progress, though."
"How many tracks?" "I don't know yet."
"Well, it won't matter because I know it will be amazing," he smiled.
I blushed.
"When it's finished, could I be first to listen?"
I giggled. "Of course! I would love feedback from the Kim Namjoon."
"Even though I just asked you for something, I want to ask for another thing." "What is it, Namjoon?"
"Um," he looked at his lap. "could I... have your number? I really wanna keep in touch."
