Chapter 470 Glimmering Prize
"I can't believe I spent more money on these tickets than my tuition," Bora sighed as she slumped down in the front-row seat.
"You're a scholar," Nari pointed out.
Bora smirked, taking out the popcorn she hid in her bra and eating the stale snack. However, she still ate it deliciously despite its current state.
"Oh yeah," Bora said, her mouth full of chewed-up popcorn.
Soomin looked at her in disgust before shaking her head.
"I sometimes wonder why you're a scholar," she muttered.
"Shh," Jia shushed her friends, causing them to frown.
"It's noisy as hell in here," Bora said. "Who are you even shushing?"
Jia clicked her tongue and shook her head, appearing more nervous than the contestants backstage. For some reason, she felt really nervous about the results of the show.
While watching Rising Stars, she was pretty sure that June was going to make it.
However, she was unsure of EVE's ranking at this very moment. The prize for winning the show hasn't even been revealed, but Jia already wanted EVE to take the crown.
Just then, Haemin and Wonbin came to the stage, making the audience go crazy. It was the first time the two hosts were seen together in a live show, and their handsome visuals shook the entire venue.
They smiled widely as they greeted the audience. Updated from novelb(i)n.c(o)m
"Ah, the studio is packed more than ever," Haemin started off.
"We also have more than one million viewers from all over the world on the livestream!"
Haemin added. "Please continue commenting and sending support to your favorite idols."
- Time to find out who's the best of the best, bitches!
- I think we already know who's going to win.
- The gap between CHAOS and EVE is really small. Please vote for CHAOS at all costs.
- I'm a casual watcher. I've been collecting voting tickets since the beginning and will only vote for the best performer at the very end!
- Honestly, I just want to watch these handsome boys grind on stage.
Lendy.
Now, these two were considered vocal powerhouses, even exceeding their roles as idols and competing with pure singers in the entertainment industry. They reminded fans that the best idols were those who had great singing skills.
Bark Lee.
Soyeoff.
Aside from singing and dancing, rapping had become one of the staples of K-pop songs. These two idols broke away from idol stereotypes and showed that even good-looking people can compete in the rap industry.
Jang Wonold.
Park Hoonie.
The last two panel members weren't really known for their exceptional talent. However, people couldn't deny the charm that they had. Their looks and overall personality just drew people in, making them indispensable members of their groups.
- How much budget does SBC have? These powerhouses are out of the charts!
- Good luck to everyone! I hope the judges play fairly and choose who really deserves to be the king.
- Gosh, I would be trembling if I were one of the participants.
Truly, the participants backstage became even more nervous after the judges were announced.
Even CHAOS, a popular group, couldn't believe they were performing before these people. It was rare to see them all in one event, yet here they were!
Wonbin took the microphone once again for the next announcement.
"Now, let me announce the most awaited prize for King of Kings," he said.
The participants set aside their nervousness for a moment to focus on the prize that had been hidden from them from the very start.
Haemin and Wonbin looked at each other knowingly before the screen behind them lit up with an unfamiliar logo.
June tilted his head to the side in confusion.
"The King's Joker?" he muttered under his breath.
"Without further ado, we reveal to you—The King's Joker!" Haemin loudly exclaimed.
"A bi-monthly variety show that would air exclusively on SBC. This show will feature the winners' of King of Kings and give them more exposure on their very own show!"
