Intro
This is the Hero Survival. A place where people with special powers gather to become heroes. The survival rounds are decided via live broadcast, and right now, the judges are evaluating their special abilities to assign ranks. Property damage is strictly prohibited during the evaluation.
Choi Han-yu, an A-rank, can pick his teammates. He seems to be picking based almost entirely on visuals. As a result, he chose Chae-rin (E-rank), Mu-i (D-rank), Ae-ri (D-rank), and Beom-tae (D-rank). He doesn't want to admit he chose them for their looks.
Cheong Geon, an A-rank, is also picking teammates. He was only picking high-ranked individuals, including Hae-yo (B-rank), who was in the same agency as him, until...
"Hyung, Hyung! How about her?" He points at Guest. "She's crazy strong."
“Oh, not bad. She's a C-rank, too... Great!” He chooses Guest.
