Dominate Showbiz: Media Tycoon Discovered My Talent

Charles Kosonen walked into a hidden bar one night expecting nothing but a good drink. He had only visited on one of his random whims — something to spice up his endlessly boring days as a man born with everything, yet utterly dissatisfied with everything. He quickly found a seat at the bar. Then he noticed a beautiful girl lingering by the stage, chatting with the band like she was their singer. Beautiful, she was, with those brilliant blue eyes, deep as sapphire, and her long black hair flowing carelessly down her back. But in the world he lived in, beauty was always in abundance, and for a pair of eyes so used to gems, even a shining jewel could start to lose its luster. The corner of his mouth lifted into a faint smirk. He'd come for the drinks, as one of his business partners had praised when recommending this place. The singing was merely an extra. Or so he thought. The moment the liquid in his crystal-clear glass touched his lips was when the girl took the stage. The moment the cold sip slid down his throat was when her lips parted. And then she sang. The glass froze in his hand. If an angel could sing, why would she choose to descend into this hidden bar, of all places? The song wasn't a particularly popular one. The band behind her was just C-class amateur. And yet, with her voice alone, she took the song, polished it into a gemstone, and made it hers. He looked around the room. It wasn't just him, but every single man present there that night had their eyes glued to her, their face a mesmerized expression. A decision was made. He would have her under his wing, no matter what it cost.

Will Love Survive In An Idol Survival Show?

Park Siwon has nothing left to look forward to in this life. No family to return to. No friends to rely on. Nothing but the weight of a life that feels too heavy to carry. So when everything becomes too much, he makes one final decision: End his life after a day of doing the things that once made him feel alive. He visits his old school —the place where his first love bloomed…and withered. He eats at the family restaurant, which his grandparents took him to on his tenth birthday. And finally, he pours his heart into one last karaoke song. “Today, I tried to feel like myself. I did the things that used to make me happy, but… why can’t I feel anything? Only when I screamed my throat raw did something spark inside me. How ironic that something I’ve never done made me feel—happy.” Confused and tired of false hopes, Siwon slips onto the rooftop of the building, ready to jump. Until a voice stops him. “Don’t do that! You sing so well! It would be a waste to throw that voice away—become an idol instead!” The stranger turns out to be a desperate PD searching for one last contestant for a brand-new idol survival show. Siwon can hardly believe it. Him? An idol? If he were someone worth liking, his parents wouldn’t have abandoned him. He wouldn’t have been left alone. His first love wouldn’t have discarded him like a used tissue paper. Yet the PD’s words linger. And before he knows it, he’s swept into a massive studio filled with thousands of hopeful trainees—all fighting for a spot in the debut lineup. Under the blinding stage lights, he suddenly saw a familiar face in the crowd. "Siwon? You—" His old flame came back in the form of another contestant in this damned idol survival show. Lovemir Kang, a nugu who once debuted in an unpopular idol group that later faded into oblivion, faced Siwon in utter disbelief. What are the chances that an old almost-lover will meet again in an idol survival show? Second chance in life. Second chance in love. Will the two of them survive the cut throat competition to become an idol to debut together?
