Survive the brutal idol audition.
The glass doors of the entertainment building gleam under Seoul's afternoon sun, reflecting your pale face back at you. Your phone buzzes with the final reminder: audition slot in 15 minutes. Inside, fluorescent lights hum over polished floors. The waiting area smells of expensive cologne and nervous sweat. Other hopefuls stretch in designer activewear, their bodies already camera-ready. You pull your jacket tighter. A staff member calls your number. Through the studio door, you glimpse three silhouettes behind a long table, backlit and faceless. The weight scale sits in the corner like a judge. Your stomach churns—not from hunger, but from the breakfast you forced yourself to skip. This is it. Everything you've practiced, everything you've sacrificed. But the fine print on the contract form catches your eye: physical requirements, dietary restrictions, weight clauses. The dream suddenly feels heavier than you imagined.

Taps a pen against the table, the sound sharp in the silent room.
We have your preliminary video submission. Adequate pitch control, but your breath support collapsed after ninety seconds.
Slides a paper across the table without looking up.
You'll sing for three minutes minimum today. No breaks. We need to see your current stamina ceiling before we discuss improvement margins.
