From Thug to Idol: Transmigrating to a Survival Show



June reached through the open window and unlocked the door

-What the heck just happened?

-Has this kid always been this smart?

- How the heck did he figure that out?

- Woah, he's handsome and smart?

- He's really smart!

GOT IT

- That's unexpected.

- I feel so happy seeing other people discovering that June is actually smart. It does not fit his looks (nobody should be perfect like that), but he is! Please love June even more.

The others exclaimed in amazement, their voices echoing in the now open house.

"I want to punch Ramil PD in the face," Pablo said. "It has been open the entire time? I swear, if he wasn't the PD, then I would have-"

Mimi patted Pablo's arm, causing him to halt his statement. Then, she pointed toward to the table, where a seafood feast was laid out for them.

"Or not," Pablo smiled. "I love Ramil PD!"

With that, they went to the table, not even bothering to get plates, and dug right in. Their earlier frustrations were now forgotten as they savored the spread before them.

Joonie, however, stood apart from the group, his eyes fixed on June. He couldn't help but stare, wanting to understand how June had figured it out.

"H-how?" Joonie muttered under his breath.

Casper, noticing Joonie's puzzled expression, smirked and walked over to him. He leaned in close, his voice low that his mic wasn't able to pick it up. "That's how amazing he is," Casper whispered.

Joonie blinked, trying to process Casper's words.

"You won't be able to copy that even if your life depended on it," he added. With that, he clapped Joonie on the back and joined the others at the table, eagerly digging into the food. Joonie remained frozen, now feeling afraid of the taller man. He was still lost in thought when he felt a warm hand pull him inside. Startled, he looked up to see June standing beside him, his expression calm and composed, as if what he had done was no big deal.

"Eat," June said simply, his hand lingering on Joonie's arm for just a moment before he let go. Joonie pursed his lips, still in a daze.

The atmosphere inside was warm and lively, a very stark contrast to the hours they had spent outside. Then, the show's outro song played with them gathered around the table as a background. They ate and laughed together inside what had become, in a sense, their home for the night.

The viewers at home were amazed, to say the least.

Jia and her friends watched in admiration as their respect for June grew with each passing moment. The members of EVE were similarly impressed, once again taken aback by June's quick thinking and insight. Seven, from OCTA, was so moved that he stood up from his seat, clapping in silent awe. Even Nico, who prided himself in being a June anti, was left speechless. He knew he would never have thought of what June did.

And then there was Lena. She sat in front of her screen, her hand covering her mouth as tears welled up in her eyes.

The mention of home, along with June's interpretation, made her feel emotional. She glanced at her right and saw her parents' pictures, which increased her emotions even more.

She tried to wipe them away, but more kept coming, and she found herself muttering under her breath, "What the heck?"

***

The pilot episode of 'Everyday, Everynight' was a success, garnering the biggest real-time rating out of all rival shows yesterday night.

Almost every employee in Azure was talking about it, praising June and the others for participating in such a great show.

Lei, however, was in a foul mood despite the sunny morning. He paced his office, his mind consumed with frustration.

Why was June trending again? Why did it always have to be June? It was supposed to be Joonie who was under the spotlight, the one everyone talked about, the one who would bring in the views and the fans.

How was he supposed to replace June when June kept doing things like this-ones that kept him firmly in the public's favor?

Replace.

The word echoed in Lei's mind.

Yes, that was now the plan. Lei didn't want to let EVE go to waste.

However, June's time was supposed to be up, or at least slowly going down.

But how could Lei move forward with that when June was still the moneymaker for Azure and the one everyone loved? As much as he hated to admit it, he couldn't afford to let June go just

yet.

Lei needed something-something that would shift the balance of power in his favor.

The head.

He just needed to be in the favor of the head of Phoenix. He already had a lot of material against Kim Young Do, but he needed the head's identity so he could finally destroy Young Do's reputation.

With that, Lei could bring Phoenix and Azure together, merging the two companies into a powerhouse that would dominate the entertainment industry. It would be a monopoly, the likes of which had never been seen before.

But there was one problem.

Lei's hands trembled with rage as he recalled the endless searches and the fruitless efforts to find this man. He had combed through the entirety of UN Village, and yet, the head remained elusive—like a ghost slipping through his fingers time and time again.

The frustration boiled over, and Lei's hand shot out, knocking over the mug on his desk. The coffee splattered onto the pristine carpet, a dark stain spreading across the expensive fabric. Lei stared at the mess, his breath coming in ragged gasps as the reality of his situation crashed down on him.

Just then, one of the employees, one who didn't know about his real personality, came in. She

gasped in surprise when she saw the stain on his carpet.

He quickly softened his expression as he looked at her.

"Sir," she said. "I was just about to bring this in. Did you knock over your coffee?"

"Yes," Lei said. "I guess I was too tired."

"I see," the employee said, quickly placing the files on his table and grabbing some napkins before kneeling down to try and salvage his mess.

"I'll clean this up, sir," she said.

Lei looked down at her kneeling figure and felt something bloom inside his heart.

This was it.

This was what he wanted all along.

To have people kneel before him even though he didn't ask.

With that, he clenched his fists, his knuckles turning white. He wouldn't let this go. He

couldn't. He would find the head, and when he did, he would make sure that June was replaced. He would make sure that Azure and Phoenix became one and that he, Lei, would be the one to reign over the idol industry.
