767 Rising Stars 5 Finale (1)

Today was the day.

The sun had set behind the towering venue that would hold the finale of Rising Stars Season 5.

However, even then, the fans waiting outside couldn't help but talk about another topic.

"Ilave you guys seen June's picture?"

"It was so freaking mesmerizing. I think I can run for five miles now."

"It wasn't really special."

"What are you talking about?"

"Because I see it almost every night."

"We have the same illness."

As the last rays of the sun dipped below the horizon, the excitement inside the arena burned hotter than ever. Banners fluttered with the names of hopefuls, their dreams pinned to the outcome of this night. The air was thick with the scents of popcorn, hotdogs, and nervousness. Outside, a sea of fans lined up cagerly. Within moments, the crowd surged in, finding their scats amidst the excited murmurs and hurried exchanges.

They burst into chatters, with most of them still talking about June and his godly body. However, they halted when the LED screen burst into life, displaying the logo of Rising Stars.

Then, before they knew it, the main character of their stories appeared before them in real life.

The LED screens split open, revealing a figure bathed in spotlight-June.

June, now the 'Nation's Boyfriend, strode in sync with the rhythm of the music.

His presence alone ignited a wildfire among the audience, and they cheered like their life depended on it-echoing off the walls and onto the nearby traffic.

The stage seemed to tremble as the screams became even louder as June took his place in the

center.

The camera focused on him, and just when he thought that the crowd couldn't get any louder- they did.

- What is this beauty? I can't believe I was born in the same century as him!

- If I looked like this, I would simply stand there and allow my looks to speak for itself.

But the thing is-June isn't just a pretty face! He's really talented, too.

- Overrated.

- I still feel bitter that I can't have any Sanipoo because of his fans.

- Guys, stop focusing on June for a second and go vote for your favorite ladies!

The members and mentors watching backstage couldn't help but marvel at June's popularity. "They seem louder than usual today," Gun said.

"It must be because of that half-naked angel picture that was revealed this morning," Lee Sik chuckled.

With the mention of the half-naked picture, Casper's eyes started twitching, and he leaned onto Jaeyong for support.

"Casper?" Ji-hyun exclaimed in a worried tone. "What's wrong with him?"

Akira shook his head and slapped Casper's cheek loudly, making the mentors shocked.

"Don't mind him," Akira chuckled. "Just please don't mention the half-naked picture anymore. The boys, especially Casper, are very sensitive about it."

Although the mentors were confused, they nodded in compliance.

"Good evening, everyone!" June's voice boomed over the crowd, amplified by the quality sound system. "Tonight marks the beginning of an incredible journey."

The audience hung on his every word, captivated by the anticipation of what was to come.

"It's time for the grand finale, where we will witness the birth of the new girl group of the century!" June continued. 'From one hundred talented young women, only five will emerge victorious tonight. Let us welcome our top twenty-five contestants!"

As June spoke, the audience roared once more.

On cue, the top 25 ladies came from the LED walls and to the seats on the stage.

Mei took her seat and watched June through the small screen in front of them.

[My previous host is so handsome!]

[Right, right? He's so handsome, right?]

[June is so handsome...and cute....and talented.]

[I miss him.]

[Is this what it feels like to have an ex?]

"Can you shut up?" Mei whispered.

Ara turned to her with wide eyes. "What was that?"

Mei turned to her and quickly shook her head. "It's nothing," she said, clearing her throat and murdering Fu inside her mind.

June paused as he waited for the crowd to settle down.

Then, when they were finally quiet, he continued with his announcement.

"The lines are still not closed, so make sure to vote for the person whom you think deserves to be in the top five!"

"For now," he started off. "Let us have a look at the current situation of the votes!"

"Please reveal the trainee who is currently in sixth place!"

The crowd held their breaths as they waited for the trainee in sixth place to appear on the

screen.

The trainees were all nervous, and June, too, surprisingly found himself looking forward to the results.

Now that he had given his system to Mei, he wanted to see her sister fulfill her dreams.

So, when Mei's face appeared on screen, he couldn't help but feel bittersweet.

The audience exclaimed as soon as she was shown-however, it was attributed more to the fact

that she looked very pretty.

- I swear. June and Mei look so alike that it's scary.

They don't look the same.

-That's because they're the opposite gender! Obviously, Mei would look more feminine and delicate. However, if you look at them closely, their features are actually very similar.

- True. True. I've been saying it since the beginning of the show, I think Mei fits well in the team!

So, keep voting for her.

- I just hope that she shows something explosive tonight. A good final performance is all she needs to be able to debut tonight.

"We have the trainee, Mei, in sixth place," June announced.

"Will she maintain her rank, or will she sneak herself into the debut line-up by the end of the

night?" he asked.

"We will only find out the answer to that question later!"

"For now, let us witness a special performance from our unexpected special guests, June said, a small smirk playing on his lips since he knew what was about to come.

The audience started discussing who it could be, some of them even placing bets. However, when June didn't leave the stage, they felt their hearts jump to their throats.

"No way," Jia muttered. ƒгeewebnovёl.com
