Become an Idol or Become Deceased! [fan translation] P.1

Chapter 57

"Wait for what?"

I sighed.

Seon Ahyun looked like he was going to cry at any moment, considering that he so bravely asked me to not drop out of the show and wait. Anyone who sees this would think that it was he who was about to drop out.

On the contrary, my brain was getting cooler.

'There's a common saying... You can't solve things by just standing around.'

If I was an idol who had already debuted, I might have the option of 'self-reflecting' and waiting things out. However, this was an impossible approach for an audition show contestant with the finals just around the corner.

The fact that a guy, who people don't think is deserving of success, is holding out in the audition show will only add to the animosity. This isn't just a simple audition, it's a cable TV show that currently has over 10% viewership ratings and dominates real-time search engines. It would be like suicide to the program to have a person like that in the show.

'If I'm going to fail in the finals anyway, the best thing to do is to resign as soon as possible and figure out the situation.'

First let's give out a vague reason like 'health problems'. With that, it would be easy to explain to the public, if it turns out that things were actually unfair to Park Moondae and he didn't do it. And if it turns out that this bastard really did something wrong... then let's go to the person concerned and apologize...

Damn it, the girl even dropped out of high school, so there's no way Park Moondae could be active as an idol.

But there is no other way.

"If there is no evidence that I didn't do it, waiting will only make the situation worse."

"B-but...Se-Sejin also..."

"At that time, we were able to find out about the photoshopped picture right away. We even happened to have a phone then unlike now."

It's really rare to be so lucky.

Seon Ahyun bowed his head.

A brief silence fell again in the dormitory.

It was then.

"...Are you there?"

Once again, someone knocked on the door of the dorm room.

"....."

"Yeah..."

After hearing Keun Sejin's short answer, the door opened. Kim Raebin came in. And right after that, Cha Yujin followed in.

I don't know why he followed to someone else's dorm room, but if he came here on purpose then, he really is a clueless guy.

Kim Raebin immediately noticed the bleak atmosphere in his room.

"...The personal practice time, finished just now."

"....."

These two guys missed the self-practice time. They didn't help much, but honestly...I was thankful.

I squeezed out my last ounce of patience.

"Go and practice."

"..! N-no but...."

"It's only a few days away, so don't regret it."

"...What about you?"

I calmly answered.

"I should go discuss dropping out of the show."

"...!!"

"D-don't...."
