Chapter 571 Street Dance Fight
With Bo Wen on his side, June thought he'd have a greater chance of getting his revenge. He found it hard to do dirty work as an idol, and although Jay was a great informant with regard to his idol life, having Bo Wen would let him gain a deeper insight into his current situation.
The first week of the promotion period had already ended, and to be frank, the results of their comeback weren't as great as they expected. Of course, their group was still doing well. However, for someone with two million albums sold, their streams on different music platforms didn't reflect it. It was true that 'Skyrocket' wasn't really a general public-friendly song.
Nonetheless, June eased his mind a bit since they were going to be promoting Luster by the second week, which he believed was a song that would be better received by their fans and the public.
Right now, though, he had another problem to solve.
"Can I watch inside? I've always wanted to meet professional dancers!" Jay exclaimed. He was clad in baggy jeans, an oversized t-shirt with what seemed to be a gang sign but was just 'cute' in Chinese letters, and a bandana tied around his head.
"You're more excited for this than me," June sighed. "I almost forgot about it. I wouldn't have gone if you didn't remind me."
"What?" Jay exclaimed. "And miss out on meeting the dancers from Street Fight Dance?"
"Street Fight Dance?" June asked in confusion.
Jisung, the TV show addict, went out of his room and looked at June with narrowed eyes.
"You don't know Street Fight Dance?" he asked.
"No," June said. "I don't have much time these days."
"You should have stayed up with Akira and me so we could watch it together! It airs every Wednesday!" he suggested.
June shook his head. "No, thank you. I'd much rather sleep than watch a show. Why? Is it popular?"
"Extremely popular!" Jisung responded. "They have even more views than some idol dance practices these days. It's basically a show where dance crews battle it out to see who's the best. They make choreographies and do freestyle dances, but the best part is--there is a lot of drama! SBC edits it in a way that makes you think the dancers hate each others' asses!"
"Alright," June said. "What does that have to do with this then?" he asked Jay.
"Well, the special anniversary video for Gun's studio is going to feature the leaders of the different dance crews! Isn't that great?"
"And where did you hear this information from?" June sighed.
June was situated near the men, and June happened to overhear their conversation. He wasn't eavesdropping! Their voices were just too loud for him not to notice.
"Do you already have a special guest for the next mission?" one of them asked.
"Yeah. I contacted this really dope dancer from LA. He's coming round tomorrow, and he has prepared some sweet moves for us," another responded.
"Dang. That fast? I'm still looking for someone who will get us the most amount of support."
"If you want that, then you should just get an idol to feature," the first man said.
June subtly nodded in agreement. Idols really were the greatest clickbaits for K-pop fans.
However, much to his surprise, the group of guys suddenly laughed out loud.
"Yeah, right," one chimed. "An idol will definitely make us win the voting poll, but then, we'd be criticized by actual dancers."
"That's true," another agreed. "While idols are great dancers, professional dancers are just different, you know?"
"Definitely. We wouldn't be called pros without a reason."
June shook his head in amusement. While he agreed that professional dancers were on another level, he believed that these dancers had an underlying prejudice against idols. Of course, they were going to be better at dance performances! That was their main job.
Meanwhile, idols have to juggle different skills all at once, so it would make sense if some of them lacked in other areas and excelled in others.
"It seems like we're on the same page. Whoever recruits an idol in the next stage will definitely be eliminated then, okay?"
The others nodded in agreement.
June pursed his lips. Maybe coming here wasn't that great of an idea after all.
They looked plenty enough, so Gun probably wouldn't notice if June wasn't around, right?
June planned on going out of the room when Jay, all sweaty and messy-looking, suddenly barged into the room.
"June! There you are!"
