Idol Game Olympics. (1)

“Yes! We are starting the first ‘Idol Game Olympics’!”

“An opening ceremony is a must for the Olympics! Let’s welcome the players!”

“First… the girl group Shy Girls!”

As the MC announced, the participants entered the stage one by one. Since there were no fans in the audience, they sat down in the seats as soon as they reached the stage.

“Bro.”

“We meet a lot these days. Stop following us around.”

“Isn’t it you who are following us?”

Awi and Mykit greeted each other with a high-five. Jisoo asked Juhyuk.

“What games are you playing?”

“All of them.”

“Really?”

“We wrote down everything we wanted to play in advance, but we don’t know yet. We have to see the brackets.”

“Wow. Are you good at games?”

The members of Awi gave a meaningful smile. Wouldn’t they be good if they averaged out?

“We are good.”

“What’s with this confidence?”

The members of Mykit tilted their heads back and puffed their cheeks. When Juhyuk asked them what they were playing, the members of Mykit smiled awkwardly.

“Actually, we wrote down everything too.”

“Oh, so you are good at games too.”

“Not really. But it’s better to play everything if we want to get some screen time.”

If they lose, they can at least show their faces for a few seconds. Juyoung laughed bitterly. Awi had a similar idea to Mykit. It was better to play as many games as possible to get some screen time.

“You and us think alike.”

“Maybe other idol groups do too? But you guys will get more screen time anyway, right?”

Ian turned his head sharply and looked at Seon with a bitter tone.

“Why?”

“…Nothing.”

Seon’s face looked calm, unlike his tone. Ian wondered if he heard wrong and fixed his eyes on the monitor. The MC flipped the cue card and held up the microphone.

“When it comes to games, we can’t leave out these people.”

“That’s right. They are the pioneers of the mafia game in the middle of the Olympics!”

The MC was accompanied by an announcer and a game broadcast caster. That’s why they were high on tension from the start.

Following the staff’s guidance, Chulmin turned his head and looked at the members of Awi.

“How do we look right now?”

“Very good.”

The members of Awi gave a thumbs up and the satisfied members of Mykit headed to the stage.

“See you later. We’ll beat you up.”

“Don’t make me laugh. Don’t cry after you lose miserably.”

Chulmin’s provocation made Taewoong snort. After Mykit, five more teams entered and it was finally Awi’s turn.

“They are a hot group these days! The global trend group! Awi!”

Usually, hearing the cheers of fans was part of the fun of entering, but they were replaced by the cheers of fellow singers.

“Where are our seats?”

“There they are.”

There were cloth name tags on the backrests of the seats that they used during rehearsal. Their seats were in the second row from the front, right in front of the camera.

Sodam, who sat at the end, received a cue card from the staff. Sodam, who was selected as M’s music show MC, was going to act as a special MC in the middle of the Olympics.

“Now! Let’s call it ‘Idol Game Olympics’ or ‘Olympics’ for short, how does it work?”

“As soon as you enter the stage, this place is being live-streamed on the real-time streaming platform ‘Streamer TV’!”

“The donation revenue generated by this will be donated to facilities in need! For streaming safety issues, video donations are not allowed!”

Live chat comments are only visible to the MC, not to the singers. The officials from ‘Streamer TV’ will ban any excessive chat reactions or donation comments in real time.

“Fans can also enjoy it in real time! On holiday broadcasts, edited versions with funny reactions from viewers with great sense of humor will be broadcasted!”

“Think of it as a game version of ‘My Little Television’!”

The idols raised their hands and cheered at the high-tension progress of the announcer and caster. On ‘Streamer TV’, fans’ chats and donations increased explosively.

“Before we start the game, we can’t miss out on interviews with our participants! Let me introduce our special MC who is sitting in the audience!”

“Yes! Hello! I’m Sodam, the youngest member of Awi!”

Sodam waved her hand skillfully at the camera that lit up. The members of Awi who were caught in the corner of the screen smiled happily and watched Sodam’s progress.

-Is that their concept, acting like that all the time?

-Sodam and her six fathers

-So cuteㅋㅋㅋㅋ

Park Seodam conducted short interviews with the idols, going back and forth between the audience seats according to the script on the cue card. The members of Awi clapped enthusiastically after every interview, impressed by Park Seodam’s confident hosting.

Thanks to them, Park Seodam’s ears turned red. He pretended not to notice and coughed lightly before approaching someone else.

“Next up, we have Minha from Miracle!”

“Hello.”

“We go to the same salon, right? I heard from the staff there that ‘this person’ was boasting that he could win!”

Minha smiled sheepishly. This was an unexpected question from Park Seodam that was not in the script.

“When did he hear that?”

The seats for makeup and hair at the salon were assigned according to the artists who were in charge of them.

Park Seodam and Ian’s seats were diagonally opposite each other. It was noisy with the sound of hair dryers, but somehow Park Seodam overheard the conversation between Kim Yongjun and Ian. Jo Taewoong, who was sitting next to Ian, exclaimed in admiration.

“Our maknae must have super hearing.”

Minha picked up the microphone. His gaze shifted to Ian, who was at the end of the row next to him.

“I’m talking about Awi’s Ian.”

“Oh, what’s this? A rivalry!”

The caster Jin Junyong, who was sitting at the host’s seat, jumped up. The screen zoomed in on Ian and Minha’s faces.

“What do you think, Ian?”

The staff hurriedly handed a microphone to Ian. Ian smiled calmly.

“I think Minha can win, at least.”

“Wow! This is how a rival structure is formed! What do the other members think?”

-This is so fun OMG

-The PD should make them compete LOL

The PD of Agem Pick watched the scene with interest. Coincidentally, Miracle was also a seven-member boy group.

It would be fun to pit the two groups against each other in a team battle. The PD called the assistant director.

“Let’s tweak the bracket a bit.”

“You want to match Awi and Miracle?”

The assistant director knew what the PD was thinking. He ran around to change the bracket while Miracle’s leader Hwang Sungwon spoke into the microphone.

“Our Minha is very good at games. You won’t win easily.”

“Great! Then, what about Awi’s leader, Juhyuk?”

“I’ll say this once, Ian is our team’s bus driver.”

The singers around them cheered and whistled.

“The rivalry is getting tense as the members show their pride! Now, let’s finish the interview and start the game! Thank you for your hard work, our MC Seodam!”

The Awi members patted Park Seodam’s back as they finished the interview.

“Ah, why do you guys keep clapping? It’s embarrassing.”

“We’re just trying to encourage you.”

“What! Are we ashamed?”

The members teased Park Seodam as they headed to the survival arena.

This stadium was built not long ago for ‘Ground Survival’, and it had facilities for all the participants to play games.

“The first game will begin soon! Please take your seats!”

The first game was ‘Fall Humans’, which all the participants could join.

‘Fall Humans’ was a light survival game. You had to avoid obstacles and reach the goal within a set time, or score points by putting a big ball into a goalpost, or keep your crown on your head until time ran out. There were various stages prepared.

“Hello.”

The seats were not arranged by teams, but randomly. Ian greeted the person next to him. On Ian’s right was a member of Miracle, Seo Hakgyu.

“How old are you?”

“I’m the same age as Minha.”

“Do you want to chat?”

“Sure.”

It took a long time to prepare because many people were participating. They naturally started talking to each other.

-When will it start?

-Let’s go let’s go let’s go

“Okay, let’s start the game!”

“There are instructions on your desktop, so read them and create your ID!”

Ian entered his group name and his name and started the game. The staff gave an okay sign after confirming that everyone had joined. The game began.

“You’ve waited long enough. The first game finally begins!”

“Oh, it’s an obstacle race from the start!”

“A bit of luck and control are most important for this stage!”

Ian and his Awi members had played all the games for Agem Pick before, so he stretched his hands confidently. One third of the total number of people would be eliminated here.

“Everyone’s eyes are changing! They’re serious!”

“Ready 3, 2, 1! Start!”

Ian’s character quickly darted to the side lane. The center was crowded with characters tangled up and slowing down.

“Great strategy!”

“Amazing control!”

Ian used his fast reaction speed to dodge the obstacles skillfully.

“The leaders are… wow, it’s Ian and Juyeong!”

“As I speak, oh! He fell!”

Kim Juyeong’s character, who was running right behind Ian, got hit by a ranking ball and fell to the ground. He could still start from the middle if he passed the mid-save point.

‘I think this will work here…’

Ian stopped at a certain point. His character, who deliberately hit a spinning rod, flew into the air.

-Crazyㅋㅋㅋ

-What a trickㅋㅋㅋ

-He’s so goodㅋㅋㅋ

“Wow, it’s Ian from Awi! He did it!”

“He didn’t just do it, he did it brilliantly! He bounced off on purpose and landed smoothly at the target point!”

His floating character slid into the target point. He was the first one to enter. The camera zoomed in on Ian’s face. He smiled at the camera.

-He’s so handsome

-Who is he? He’s insane

Not only the idols’ fans, but also the viewers of ‘Streamer TV’ who heard the news reacted instantly. The chat window was scrolling up too fast to read, and Ian’s fans sent donations.

<Choi Ian Welfare donated 10,000 won.

‘I can’t see this face for free. Face value.’>

Ian, who was bored until the other cast members came in, leaned toward Seohakgyu.

“What’s wrong with this? Why does it keep tilting?”

“What’s not working?”

“Look at this seesaw.”

It was a section where they had to cross an obstacle that tilted when weight was applied to one side. The last seesaw was constantly leaning to one side.

“Now there are only 14 people who can enter the target point!”

“They have to speed up!”

The announcer and the caster raised their voices.

“What’s going on here? Many people are falling and retrying at the seesaw section!”

“Something is wrong with the seesaw, right? What is it?”

The staff who participated as an observer zoomed in on the seesaw section. There was a character hanging precariously under the seesaw, keeping it tilted with his weight and making many people fall.

-He’s crazyㅋㅋㅋ

-Bad personalityㄷㄷㄷ

-Satan firedㅋㅋㅋ

“Oh! It’s Seon from Mykit! He’s being mean!”
