From Thug to Idol: Transmigrating to a Survival Show-Chapter 866: Random Play Dance (4)

- I didn't expect June to last this long.

- I did! He's always been a great dancer.

- Yeah, but you have to admit that our expectations were below the gutter. It's a known fact that June is an old soul who doesn't know much about new pop culture. So, this is very impressive.

- He's an idol. He should know this. Joonie, on the other hand, is killing it despite being an actor.

- Blah, blah. Your fave is getting eaten up by June.

"They're fighting in the comments," Akira chuckled.

"Who?" Jisung asked, his cheeks filled with popcorn like a hamster.

"June's and Joonie's fans," Akira said.

"There's no argument here," Casper chimed, crossing his arms in front of his chest. "June wins in every way."

Casper was telling nothing but the truth.

While Joonie was the star of the show during the first parts of the challenge, when he was placed next to June, he appeared like a meerkat.

Although Joonie's gaze was sharp and intense, his movements were a whole different story. They were accurate yet clumsy at the same time-one that showed he was an amateur.

On the other hand, June's movements were elegant yet powerful. His nonchalant demeanor also added to it all.

The next one was another classic. It was a cute girl group song from the 90s, and June recognized it immediately, although he had never danced to it before.

He stepped forward, a small smile playing on his lips as his mind had already pieced the choreography together.

Joonie glanced at June for a second and quietly clicked his tongue, hoping that June wouldn't know the song.

Yet, the two of them began to dance, and once again, it quickly became clear who was the better performer.

Joonie was decent, no doubt about that. His timing was on point, but there was something missing. His performance, while competent, lacked the finesse and fluidity that made a dancer truly stand out.

June, on the other hand, was in his playground. Despite the fact that he had never danced to this particular song before, his execution was flawless.

Mimi covered her mouth to prevent herself from screeching.

Ramil PD noticed this and nudged Nico's shoulder.

"It seems like your girlfriend is a big fan of June," he teased.

Nico glanced at Mimi before shaking his head. "Let her be," he muttered. "She had always been a big fan of June. I mean it's not that surprising. He really is a great performer."

Ramil PD nodded in agreement as he continued to watch June. As the producer of the show, he wanted to give the two artists the same level of attention. However, June just caught his eye every time.

"Don't tell him I said that, though," Nico added, causing Ramil PD to laugh.

Unbeknownst to Nico, it was going to be aired on YouWatch.

June's body flowed effortlessly from one step to the next. But what really set him apart were his expressions. Even as he danced, he didn't forget to engage with the music, his face lighting up with the playful energy of the song.

- My baby is so cute.

- I thought Joonie was great at first, but man, June is on another level.

"I want to squish June's cheeks!" Jaeyong exclaimed as June continued to dance cutely, even going as far as turning to June.

June quickly placed his palms over his cheeks and shook his head.

"Don't you freaking dare," he warned.

Meanwhile, the reactions of the other actors and contestants were shown, looking impressed.

"He's a true performer," Mina said, nodding in admiration. "He's got the whole package- technique, expression, everything."

"Joonie's still in the game, though. I wonder who's going to win?" Ara asked.

Mei secretly hoped that it would be June. Not that she was rooting for him, but she just didn't want Joonie to win.

As the song came to an end, they became even more excited.

It was clear that June had outperformed Joonie, but the competition wasn't over yet.

Ramil PD had one last trick up his sleeve-a curveball that would test both contestants to their limits.

The next song began to play, and most of the artists frowned. The melody was familiar, yet not at the same time.

"What's this?" Jaeyong muttered.

It took the others a while to realize what song was playing.

"Ah!" Mimi exclaimed. "It's Baam Baam by MOOMOO! That viral song."

Looks of recognition passed by their eyes. However, they quickly glanced at Ramil PD, who had a mischievous look in his eyes.

"How can you do this to the boys?" Jordan asked in amusement.

Ramil PD shrugged and focused his gaze on the last two contestants.

It wasn't a killing part or the segment of a song usually showcased in random play dances.

Rather, it was the first verse of a track.

Joonie's confidence faltered. He was used to the highlight parts of songs or the flashy segments that actors often learn to mimic for variety shows.

But this? He couldn't possibly know this! He found himself searching his mind for the choreography, but it was no use. He had never learned this part of the song, and there was no way that June would, too.

- Aww, is it going to be a tie?

- That's fine with me.

- It's definitely not fine! Having two winners is no fun.

- True. We need to settle this!

June would have been in trouble, too, but fortune was on his side.

A small smirk made its way to his lips.

This was the song that Mentor Gun had taught during one of their dance classes.

The memory came rushing back, and with it, the choreography he had learned.

His smirk was replaced with a smile as he began to move, his body flowing into the routine

with ease.

The scene was almost comical. June's performance was both funny and impressive, capturing the playful spirit of the song.

His versatility was on full display, proving once again that he was a true dance encyclopedia.

Joonie, meanwhile, stood still, his pride warring with his sense of defeat.

He pursed his lips, not wanting to give up.

However, he realized that it wasn't in his character to appear bitter. So, he quickly smiled and

clapped for June as he made his way to the other contestants.

Finally, one person remained.

However, even then, Joonie couldn't shake off the bitterness in his heart.
