“Trainees typically show the greatest growth rate during the first few months of training. I’m looking forward to seeing how much Yerin has grown this week.”

Even though he said that, Han Si-woo didn’t have much expectations about how much Ha Ye-rin had grown.

Just one week.

A week was too short a time to show significant changes in my dancing and singing skills.

Nevertheless… , Haye-rin said that because she felt like she might show something.

The fresh shock I felt when I first saw Ye-rin Ha’s performance was still unforgettable in my mind.

And then the stage begins… .

-We always dream.

‘… hmm?’

… Han Si-woo was immediately shocked.

-We are dreaming!

-The moment you saw us.

Haye-rin’s dance.

I was already used to how surprising it was.

A liveliness that makes you feel as if you are dancing right next to each other.

Because that was Ha Ye-rin’s biggest charm and specialty.

It was still the same now.

Her dance, showing a sometimes delicate and sometimes strong appearance like a girl truly dreaming, made the viewer empathize with the girl’s passion.

But this time, that wasn’t the end.

-We open our eyes!

her song.

Haye-rin’s singing ability was not strictly speaking.

However, it did not match her dancing level and felt like it spoiled the atmosphere a bit.

But what about now?

-We are dreaming!

-The moment we open our eyes.

Even now, it cannot be said that her singing ability stands out compared to other top-tier contestants.

but… .

-A new dream unfolds before our eyes!

It has changed from before.

The tone became clearer. I have more room to breathe. Her voice melts more into the dance.

In other words… ,

Better than before. I grew up.

‘In just one week… ?’

A week at most.

In that time that others might just waste without thinking… , Hayerin has grown up.

‘Does this make sense…? ?’

Han Si-woo couldn’t properly recognize what kind of expression he was making at that moment.

I think he was probably laughing.

There were a lot of cameras in front of me, but it was unprofessional to not know what kind of face I had.

But it was worth it.

How can a person with a huge diamond right in front of him manage his facial expressions?

‘I want it.’

Ha Ye-rin’s value was more than diamonds to Han Si-woo.

Han Si-woo thought that Ha Ye-rin was only focusing on dancing. I thought he was just a natural main dancer.

However, even the singing ability is showing growth at this rate… ?

I made this much growth after just practicing for a week… , what will happen if you practice it in the practice room for a few months?

‘A main dancer with main vocal-level singing skills…’ .’

If you have the ability to shake people’s hearts… .

It would not be a dream to overturn the concrete Korean entertainment industry and expand into the world.

It meant that the girl in front of him could achieve the dream that he could not achieve while he was on active duty.

… … .

As he thought about that, Han Si-woo felt some strange emotion welling up in his chest.

I’m jealous of Haye-rin.

If I had a time machine, I would want to use it to meet her as a child and recruit her.

Want.

Excited.

My heart is pounding violently.

This was a feeling so intense that I mistakenly thought I was truly in love.

“Phew… , That’s it.”

That’s how Ha Ye-rin finished the stage.

Sigh-.

Han Si-woo was the first to pick up the microphone.

It was because I wanted to relieve this pounding feeling right now.

however… .

“Yerin’s performance this time… .”

“Ugh… .”

“… ?”

There was an uninvited guest who interrupted Han Si-woo’s comment as he was trying to continue his review in a pleasant manner.

At this, Han Si-woo turned his head… .

“Ugh… , turn it off… .”

“… Trainer Kim Ye-sol?”

Kim Ye-sol, who was an A-class vocal trainer, was shedding tears of emotion as she covered her mouth.

Murmur.

The judges were taken aback by the sudden unexpected situation and the contestants were whispering.

And the production crew… .

Ji-ing-.

Of course I didn’t miss that scene.

**

I could tell during the performance.

There is a significant difference in the change in stat 5 that is felt more than expected.

“Phew… , That’s it.”

As I finished the performance with such a satisfying feeling, the judges, as expected, were looking at me with quite favorable eyes.

Especially Han Si-woo.

He had so much to say that he was holding the microphone even before I finished the performance.

This is definitely a positive sign.

I happily waited for the judges’ evaluation.

however… .

“Yerin’s performance this time… .”

“Ugh… .”

“… ?”

Eh.

Before Han Si-woo could finish speaking, someone broke in.

“Ugh… , turn it off… .”

“… Trainer Kim Ye-sol?”

She was a vocal trainer who did not spare us harsh words.

As soon as my performance ended, she burst into tears as if she couldn’t stand it.

Of course, I couldn’t help but be embarrassed by this.

‘It wasn’t a particularly moving stage… ?’

The judges around her asked her whether she was the only one who was embarrassed.

“Trainer Kim Ye-sol… . Why all of a sudden… .”

“Sigh… , black… .”

In response to questions from those around her, Kim Ye-sol finally stopped crying and picked up the microphone.

“In the meantime… Wow… , I treated the A grade kids harshly… Wow… .”

“… … .”

“Yerin is definitely… , black… , it must have been heartbreaking… . however… , ugh… , I overcame all that and practiced hard every night… Wow… , I’m so happy and sorry to see such a great performance… .”

… aha.

That person certainly didn’t seem like a person so harsh that he would throw harsh words at people.

Did you keep scolding us in your heart and then burst out?

From what I’m saying, I think he may have seen us practicing every night.

Sigh-.

I slightly turned my head and checked the camera.

The production crew was excitedly taking pictures of me and the vocal trainer who was crying.

‘At times like this, it would be nice if I could show tears or look touched… .’

But my acting stat was only 18. There’s no way something like that would be possible.

So, I did the next best thing and said this with as calm a face as possible.

“It is true that Teacher Yesol has scolded me a lot… , I don’t think you did that for no reason.”

“Ugh… , Yerin… .”

“Rather, I was able to grow thanks to Teacher Yesol’s good advice. I want to say thank you to teacher. Oh, of course, to other teachers too.”

As soon as I finished speaking, the vocal trainer sat down and shed more tears.

And after some time had passed, he seemed to have calmed down, wiped away his tears and picked up the microphone again.

“It’s not that I’m overdoing things for no reason. Even though Yerin was a dancer, she was a trainee with excellent singing skills. It seems that the growth of my singing ability was particularly noticeable through this stage.”

“… Thank you.”

“I think that at this level of growth, we will be able to see a main dancer who can sing well in the future. It’s still an outstanding performance, but I’m looking forward to the future even more.”

After ending the storm of praise, the vocal trainer lowered the microphone as if he had said all he had to say.

Han Si-woo looked at that with a bewildered expression.

It was as if he was complaining that all his lines had been taken away.

Still, he soon regained a smile on his face and finished the judging by continuing what the vocal trainer said.

“Yes, I also agree with what teacher Ye-Sol Kim said. Yerin’s performance this time was one in which her vocal growth was especially noticeable. Of course I knew that Yerin’s dancing was amazing, but… , the vocal growth this time was quite shocking.”

Han Si-woo smiled at me and continued speaking.

“This might be… , I think it won’t be long before Yerin threatens not only the main dancer position but also the main vocalist position.”

“… … .”

I couldn’t help but be taken aback because Han Si-woo spoke as if that day would definitely come.

‘… I now have 6 remaining stats.’

This was because the remaining stats were only 6.

There was no way I could show singing skills at the level of a main vocalist with barely this level of stats.

‘Hey, I don’t know. ‘I was aiming to be a dancer anyway.’

It’s more of an interpretation than a dream anyway.

I just nodded and let those people misunderstand as much as they wanted.

“Yes, I will work hard and it will definitely happen.”

Seeing that, Han Si-woo said with a satisfied smile once again.

“After a brief discussion, I will announce Ms. Yerin’s grade.”

Honestly, I didn’t even know what grade I would get, it was a video.

“I will maintain Ms. Yerin’s grade as A.”

Grade A.

Through the final rating evaluation, I once again confirmed that I was a top-ranked participant.

closely.

It was a moment when my fists were clenched.

**

“Cut, let’s take a short break.”

Filming Naaah was a forced march that lasted over several hours. Of course, it was difficult to film it in one take.

Perhaps because they thought everyone was tired from the continuous filming, after evaluating my grade, the production crew turned off the cameras and gave us time to take a break.

The judges each leaned over the back of their chairs, and the contestants also fell into their seats.

There were only two people who felt uncomfortable here.

Yoo Seol and Lee Hye-jeong have not yet completed the final grade evaluation.

“Why, why, why… , W, here, it’s time to take a break, and I don’t know if they give me liver… .”

Perhaps because she was very nervous, Lee Yi-hye and Hye-jeong Jeong stammered and trembled.

“It’s okay, sister, you’ll do well.”

“Go, go, thank you, Yerin… .”

It was a time when I was comforting Lee Hye-jeong, who was shaking like a cafe vibrating bell.

Sigh-.

“… Hmm?”

I turned my head to see a sudden sign of popularity from the side… .

“Miss Yerin.”

“… … Producer Han Si-woo?”

Han Si-woo was standing there grinning.

There is an inherent issue of equity, and it is taboo to judge and have close personal relationships with participants.

There was no way Han Si-woo didn’t know these rules.

however… .

“Would you like to talk to me for a moment?”

He suddenly called me outside, giving me the impression that he had something important to say.
