People on the Peninsula: I Became a Lucky Koi

"...Call her Kim Ji-soo." Bae Jong-han.

Jin Can nodded knowingly and stood quietly to the side with his arms crossed.

The guest appearances were part of an ensemble piece; their acting wasn't particularly brilliant, but it was adequate.

Competing on the same stage is Cindy, a top female singer played by IU.

Kim Jisoo plays the role of a new guest/youngest idol on the variety show "2 Days & 1 Night".

She sat in the guest waiting room, quietly reciting her lines: "This is the first time I've met Cindy in person... I'm still a newcomer, appearing on screen with her will boost my popularity."

Park Sandara said shrewdly, "Don't let your guard down, or Cindy might steal the spotlight."

"Then what should I do?" Kim Jisoo asked obediently for advice.

But then his eyes suddenly fell on a strange boy who had suddenly appeared not far away.

He stood there calmly, with his outstanding height and indifferent expression.

Sandara Park: "Don't smile at her in front of the camera, just support us."

Kim Jisoo nodded in agreement.

The scene lasted about 5 minutes, with no standalone plot, consisting of a group of cameos, and ended quickly.

After the "cut" sound.

The cameo actors gradually got up and left the set…

Lee Ji-eun and the others thanked each other for their hard work.

"Annyeonghaseyo~ I'm Kim Chan." Kim Chan glanced at the group of people who had come over and greeted them.

Park Sandara and the others smiled politely.

The group didn't exchange many words, but the guests all looked at Jin Can with curiosity.

Besides his striking good looks, a large part of it is due to his complicated love-hate relationship with Byun Baekhyun and Kim Tae-yeon…

Park Sandara exclaimed, "He's unbelievably handsome!"

"Mm." As a trainee, Kim Jisoo was a little reserved on set, and nodded in agreement.

Park Sandara seemed to think for a moment and then said, "I heard from the president that this kid almost joined YG, but ended up going to JYP."

"Qinjia?"

Kim Jisoo couldn't help but lower her voice and ask.

"Really." Sandara Park nodded. "She's someone with a very powerful background."

The two were talking quietly about Kim Chan, who became famous for cheating on Byun Baekhyun.

Jin Can went to the dressing room and changed into Bai Chengcan's work clothes.

He had just put on his suit jacket and stood in front of the mirror when he suddenly paused.

A panel for the side effects section popped up quietly.

"As JYP's Taeyang, upon learning that YG trainee Kim Jisoo will be your future colleague, the radiant glow of your presence triggers the keyword 'Dynamic Spring'."

"【Power Spring】: During Jisoo's 'pre-debut exposure period,' all the filming, MV cameos, and public appearances she participates in will greatly increase her popularity before her debut."

"Side effect: The price of this 'blessing' is that her physical coordination, sense of rhythm, and aesthetic sense in the field of dance will be given a peculiar 'quirky' attribute."

"Characteristic: The harder you work, the more heartbreaking it becomes."

"Time Limit: That's just how she is."

Jin Can was stunned after reading the entry.

I'm so chovy! Give me some real support, you idiot...

Are you trying to destroy me?

Jin Can has figured out the side effects tag very well now; he can extract points from characters he has bonds with.

For example, dance, composition, acting, script understanding, and all sorts of other things.

But now, Jin Can doesn't know what he can get out of Lim Yoon-ah and Kim Ji-soo.

Im Yoon-a's Popularity Award?

On the contrary, this woman latched onto him, seeking his pedantic emotional value. And relying on the duality of their bond, she floated around in the GG photoshoot…

The guest stars came and went quickly.

After adjusting himself for a while, Jin Can quickly got into shooting mode.

In the afternoon, following Jackson Wang, Bambam sent a support truck...

Parked alongside the support truck sent by Bambam was the support truck sent by Sulli to IU.

...

...

the next day.

Jin Can was in the recording studio, recording the audio for "Way Back Home".

Meanwhile, the trainees of 16TZ officially began recording the first episode of "SIXTEEN" in Mapo-gu.

Bae Suzy is very busy, so busy that she has been promoting her music for more than half a month.

Still nothing in the top 1 position…

But Jin Can also understands this woman quite well; compared to her constant displays of affection, she is actually very career-oriented.

He likes this kind of personality.

"..."

Under the supervision of the company's professional production instructors.

Jin Chan recorded the audio for "Way Back Home" five or six times before it was perfect, and that concludes the audio recording process.

The rest involves shooting music videos and album covers…

"Ton ton ton~"

Jin Can left the recording studio, drinking warm water to protect his voice.

It's already evening.

It's very windy in Seoul today, the sky is pitch black, and it looks like it could rain heavily at any moment. The anti-fans downstairs have all calmed down and gone home.

Jin Can and Yin Chengxian walked into the company lobby.

He waited for the man to get the car, but suddenly noticed a minibus and a luxury van used by celebrities parked in front of the door.

A total of 16 trainees got off the two cars, including Lim Na-yeon.

Some are melancholy, while others are confident.

Jin Can was a little curious. How did the trainees fare on their first episode of the show? What was the process like?

Hirai Momo grinned and walked in cheerfully: "Chan-san! How energetic are you today?!"

"You're so energetic!" Jin Can chuckled, seeing her like this.

He knew that Hirai Momo's recording today would go very smoothly, and that she, Mina, and Lim Nayeon all got out of a luxury van.

This means you've entered the higher-level Major group.

On the contrary, Sana Minatozaki's chubby little face was full of urgency.

"We're moving to a new dorm!" Lim Nayeon slid a step and stopped in front of Kim Chan, grinning with her bunny teeth as if asking for praise.

Kim Chan gave a perfunctory reply: "Well done, Lim Nayeon!"

They didn't stay in the lobby for long before going upstairs.

Jin Can also joined in the fun, mainly because there were quite a few familiar faces in the Minor group.

This was something he hadn't expected.

For example, Yoo Jeongyeon, Minatozaki Sana, and Park Jihyo. However, Park Jihyo's situation is understandable, as her current body management is terrible.

The appearances of Chou Tzu-yu, Somi, and the Chaeryeong sisters were somewhat expected.

After all, they had practiced together for so long, and Jin Can had a fairly good understanding of their skill level.

"Aigoo, the practice room can only be used after 9 p.m.

"The Major group even has personal guidance from debut seniors..." Jeon Somi complained bitterly and helplessly about the cruelty of the competition system.

Chou Tzu-yu sat to the side, hugging her legs with both hands, looking left and right.

Jin Can asked curiously, "What's the first mission?"

"Are you a star?" Chou Tzu-yu scratched her head and replied.

This question was unbearable for Jin Can: "Show off your star power?"

Sana Minatozaki nodded.

"It can be described as a solo stage performance," Yoo Jeongyeon said, her heart sinking a little when she was assigned to the Minor group.

As she said that...

Minor and the others began to brainstorm together.

"Don't overthink it," Jin Can said with a smile. "If you don't want to be overlooked, you need to showcase your unique characteristics and strengths."

Chou Tzu-yu nudged his shoulder and asked in broken Korean, "If it were you, how would you perform?"

"Don't let him show off." Sana Minatozaki recalled Jin Chan's international hand gesture from a few days ago, which was absolutely terrifying. "Let's be calm, Chan-san~"

After saying that, fearing that the trainees around her might not understand, she chuckled and gave them the middle finger.

"But it felt so satisfying!"

Sana Minatozaki added.

Yoo Jeongyeon said, "Chan probably has a lot of skills, right? He sings very well, plays many instruments, and even produces his own songs."

Jeon Somi raised her head and retorted, "Unnie, with Oppa's face, he would debut without doing anything..."

This time.

Jin Can felt a little pleased, and in his eyes, it seemed that Li Cailing and the others were nodding in agreement.

"Your Minor group practices from 9 PM to 9 AM, right?"

Jin Can asked.

Park Ji-hyo nodded, "Yes."

"Sana-san has the key to my practice room. You can practice there if needed." Kim Chan slowly stood up and chuckled. "Anyway, I'm often not at the company."

Although that's the format of the show, even if they can't practice in the practice room during the day, these trainees will probably still continue to practice in their dormitories or other secluded places.

Jin Can merely provided a venue…

Upon hearing this, the nine trainees felt that the golden, smiling eyes were radiating a dazzling, blinding light.

Jeon Somi and Lee Eun-seo nodded happily, "Kamsammada~"

"Wouldn't that be unfair?" Li Cailing asked weakly.

Jin Can picked up her bag and asked, "So, if you get eliminated, will you regret it?"

As soon as he finished speaking...

Li Cailing clasped her hands together, bowed slightly, and accepted the sun's kindness.

"I'm off~ I have a family dinner." Jin Can glanced at the phone call from his older brother and chuckled.

Sana Minatozaki looked up, grinning and teasing, "I won't be taking you home from get off work today, San-san. It's going to rain, all the antis downstairs have run away..."

"Bye-bye~" Chou Tzu-yu glanced helplessly at Kim Chan.

The royal brother can be quite arrogant at times, but now that she's one of his protectors, she's gotten used to escorting him home from get off work.

After Jin Can left.

Jeon Somi stood up curiously and looked at Minatozaki Sana: "Shall we go check out Kim Chan oppa's practice room?"

"Okay." Sana Minatozaki nodded in agreement.

The nine of them set off together towards the practice room at the end of the corridor.

Lee Chae-ryeong asked, "Is Oppa about to debut?"

"Yes." Park Jihyo has a lot of inside information, being a veteran: "I heard from some seniors that he's currently preparing for a music video shoot."
