From Thug to Idol: Transmigrating to a Survival Show

- Is this legit? - Minmin has always posted reliable stuff, so I think we can trust him on this one. - How, though? Azure hasn't even posted about it. - You're right! It's not April Fools today, right? - I've been Minmin's follower since he had less than 100,000 followers. I can vouch that he has never given any fake news. - But like—how does he know? - We don't ask how Minmin acquires his information. We just trust in him because he's a good guy.

"Can we really trust him?" Bora asked as she continued reading through the article. "It will be sick if Minmin's joking," Soomin said. "Who jokes about a charity concert?" "That's why I have all the reasons to believe that it's real," Jia said. "Besides," she continued. "Minmin has been a fan of June since he was in Rising Stars. If June wasn't so busy, then I would think that he's Minmin himself." With her observation, the group of friends turned silent. "What if—" "No," Jia deadpanned. "Don't even go there." Just then, Soomin gasped in surprise. "Guys!" she said. "Look at June's latest post. I think Minmin is telling the truth." The girls collectively went to June's Navel page and silently read through his latest post. Hi, guys! You heard right. EVE is going to be performing at the charity concert with Little Sunflowers. We're doing this for a good cause and not for anything else. With that, before the tickets are released, we will ask you to fill out this form. This ensures that the people attending truly support our original cause. Details of the concert will only be disclosed to those who have won the tickets. - OMG! It's real. I can finally see EVE! I've been wanting to touch their hands since I saw them perform online. - Girl, you're one of the people they don't want to sell tickets to. - What is this behavior? Why are they acting cocky now? And what? Only 100 tickets? They're so ungrateful to their fans. - You guys are angels! I hope I get a ticket.

- I don't like his tone. Why is he being so ungrateful? - Ungrateful where? He's literally just being professional. - They're just doing this for publicity. Let me guess? They're going to have a comeback soon? "Goodness," Jia said, massaging the bridge of her nose. "The internet is really filled with unhinged people." Bora clicked her tongue, also feeling pissed about the other comments. "They're just being brave because they're behind a screen. Make them meet EVE in real life, and they'd all fold. That's how pathetic they are." Wei nodded in agreement. "They're doing something so nice, but there's still quite a lot of backlash." "That's how you know that a team is successful, though," Nari said. "People can't ever be satisfied with anything that they do." "Yeah," Bora said. "Imagine if I become a K-Pop idol. I'll be canceled right away!" "Hmm," Jia hummed. "Me too. Imagine going on hiatus because you're in a consensual relationship, or you've danced to a police siren, or for eating a goddamn strawberry! I swear, people care too much about things that don't matter but won't bat an eye at actual pressing problems!" Her friends looked at her with wide eyes. "Well, you have a lot of anger pent up," Soomin remarked. Jia shook her head. "I'm just telling the truth," she said. "Anyway," Bora said, straightening his posture. "Why don't we fill out this thing?" Jia nodded and clicked on the form. She was expecting it to be a form filled with questions related to EVE. However, after filling out her name and other demographics, only one question appeared. While Jia kept her gaze on the screen, the others turned to each other in confusion. "Is this legit?" Bora asked. Soomin scratched the back of her head. "Maybe June posted the wrong form."

"Yeah, I don't know what to answer to this." Jia smiled as she continued looking at the question. "No, it's right," she smiled, making the others turn to her with curiosity. "Huh?" Bora asked. "It's right," Jia said. "And it's very June." How do you hope attending this concert will impact your life? Jia felt her admiration for June swell even further—if that was even possible since she already loved June an abnormal amount. However, it was times like this that showed why June was truly worthy to idolize. "It's a genius question," Jia exclaimed. "It filters out the people with good intentions without them thinking too much about it. How will it impact your life? Of course, at first, you'd say that it's because you want to enjoy EVE and help others. However, it's not as simple as that. June is seeing if our intentions are pure."

"When you ask someone how something will impact their life, you're asking them to reflect deeply on their personal values. It's not just about wanting to see EVE perform or even about helping others on a surface level. It's about how those actions resonate with who they are as a person. June wants to know if we're there for the right reasons, not just for a good time or to feel good about ourselves."

Bora pursed his lips. "Well, it's obvious that you're June's fangirl. How can you be so good with words?" Jia smirked. "Come on. I already gave you a clue. Just answer it." Jia quickly typed her answer while the others were still hesitant. Jia lifted her head for a moment when she saw Bora conspicuously doing something on her phone. "Don't even think of opening that AI app," Jia said, pointing her finger at Bora. Bora pursed her lips. "My intentions are pure! I'm just not good at words." Jia shook her head in amusement. "Then, say it in your own words. I swear, June would appreciate it even more if you do." Bora sighed before typing out her feelings in her own simple words. Meanwhile, Jia smiled as she typed out the last sentence of her answer. Then, she smiled in satisfaction as she read it once again. Attending this concert will remind me of the goodness in the world. I've been feeling lost lately, caught up in my own problems and forgetting what really matters. It will be a moment where I can pause, reflect, and remember that there is so much more to life than my worries. I want to feel that connection and sense of purpose and carry it with me long after the concert ends. It's not just about seeing EVE; it's about feeling part of something bigger, something truly good.
