An entry for the Open Novella Contest 2025 (based on prompt #35)

[COMPLETED ON 29/4/2025]

***

The TV show "Turning Point: Room to Stardom" has selected ten contestants from different areas of South Korea to take part in a number of challenges that will be converted into points. The contestant who, at the end of the show, earns the most points will be crowned the winner and will receive several prizes, including a makeover.

Cha Saesom, a 26-year old from Daegu who still dreams of becoming an idol after years of repeated attempts, auditions and busking performances, thinks this show is her one-way ticket to stardom. This is only the beginning of her journey... That is, if she can keep up with intricate challenges, a nosy host, and a few fellow contestants who'd do anything to make her look bad in public...
