Now, two years later, she's given a second chance... but it comes with a twist.
She's been invited to join a mysterious survival show called "The Mirror Effect", where 75 talented trainees will fight for a spot in the final debut lineup. With cameras watching 24/7, intense missions, secret rivalries, and unexpected friendships, Nari must prove she has what it takes - not just to sing and dance, but to survive the pressure, the spotlight, and the secrets hiding behind the mirrors.
In a world where image is everything, will Nari finally get her chance to shine - or will the reflection break her?

When the Bell Rings No More || Minsung
Enemies to lovers. Friends to survivors. One infected world. Lee Minho and Han Jisung have hated each other since freshman year. The top of the class and the class clown-total opposites, constantly at each other's throats. Their insults echo through the hallways louder than the morning bell. It's all part of the routine at Silverpoint High. Until one ordinary afternoon, everything shatters. The school intercom goes silent. Phones stop working. And one by one, students start turning-into bloodthirsty monsters with no trace of humanity left. Trapped inside the building, only eight remain uninfected: Minho, Jisung, and the rest of their tangled, chaotic friend group-Bang Chan, Seungmin, Hyunjin, Felix, Jeongin, and Changbin. Now it's not about grades or grudges. It's about survival. Secrets unravel. Friendships are tested. And amidst the horror, something unexpected brews between two enemies who were never meant to care for each other. But in a world that's already fallen apart, can love still find a place to grow? ⚠️Warning • gay • blood • swearing • sexual content • smut(?)

When 18-year-old Y/N finally gets the chance of a lifetime - to debut with global K-pop sensation Stray Kids - she thinks nothing can stand in her way.

But behind Jisung's playful grin is a heart that's real and loyal - and a secret crush he's never dared to act on. At first, Y/N is determined to keep things professional. She's not here for love - she's here to chase her dreams. But the more time she spends with Jisung, the harder it gets to ignore the fluttering in her chest. Can two rising stars survive the pressure of fame, the rules of the industry, and their growing feelings for each other? Sometimes, love finds you when you least expect it - even when you're lost in the spotlight.Complete

As if chasing after an idol debut on a K-pop survival show wasn't enough stress, 18-year-old trainee Chai now has to deal with the mortifying ordeal of an unreciprocated crush on the swoon-worthy, highest-ranking contestant, Park Jiwoon. He could get over it, too, if Jiwoon would stop trying to become close friends. And if the producers stopped pushing their bromance storyline. And if his poor heart could stop sledgehammering his ribcage every time Jiwoon as much as smiles in Chai's direction. With cameras, and dozens of other contestants, watching their every move, how will the two trainees handle their precarious relationship among the challenges of desperately climbing toward their debut? Inspired by recent K-pop survival shows like Boys Planet, Project 7, and Starlight Boys.
