From Thug to Idol: Transmigrating to a Survival Show-Chapter 963: Winner Winner

As soon as the photos were released, June became the talk of the town. His name even surpassed the trend 'Halloween,' taking up the number one spot in the trends list.

And as the group entered the venue, the people inside were amazed.

One, because the new group in the company was such a handsome bunch.

"Gosh. No wonder we can't compete with EVE on the charts."

"Yeah, and they're very good in live performances, too."

"You haven't even seen them perform live!"

"Yeah, but they beat CHAOS in King of Kings, and CHAOS are known for their epic performances."

The second reason was June.

The lights illuminated the group as soon as they entered, and it wasn't hard to miss June- especially with his neon yellow hair.

Other artists looked at him like he had lost his mind. Then, their second reaction was to burst into laughter.

"Only June, man."

"So true. He's the only idol who can pull off that look."

"Why is he so freaking cute in that costume?"

The others seemed to love his costume. However, June was having none of it. He wanted nothing less but to jump into a pool of bleach to get rid of the blue paint from his skin.

The group went to their table, but they were still the talk of the entire room. As they settled in their seats, the stage opened, and Jay was revealed. ƒгeewebnovёl.com

The room enthusiastically clapped as Jay smiled. However, they couldn't help but notice his costume, too.

"Is he...sparkling?" June asked.

The other boys chuckled. "I think so," Akira said. "Goodness, how long did that take?"

"He can't be a regular vampire. He even covered himself in glitter," Jaeyong muttered. "Beats me," Ren said. "Jay really likes being the center of the attention, so he's loving this." "It seems like the other artists don't really mind, though," Zeth observed. "I do think they're thankful that Jay has been appointed as the new CEO."

"Well, he's doing a great job," Jaeyong smiled. "It must be because he also knows what it's like to dream of becoming an idol, so he takes care of the artists better."

Haruki, who was just at the next table, joined in on their conversation.

"I can attest to that," he said. "For the last Halloween Party, the girls from LITTY wore ghillie suits because they knew how much of a creep Kim Young Do was."

The boys laughed, feeling comfortable with the company's new management.

"It is a joy to see all of you here," Jay started off. "Especially you, June! I can see your hair from here!"

June groaned at the shout-out. Meanwhile, the others burst into cheers and laughter. "Anyway, welcome to our annual Halloween Party! It's my first time conducting this event, so I wanted to go all out. We are going to continue this tradition all while changing the idol industry for the better!"

"Before we get started," he continued. "Allow me to welcome the new artists that had been signed to the company since my stay here."

"First, we have six new actors and actresses under Phoenix Entertainment-Acting," he started off.

The group of new actors stood from their seats as the rest of the artists clapped.

June saw some familiar faces, noting Scar, Hyuck, and Hale. He didn't hold any grudges against Scar and wished the best for her career instead.

"We also have new rappers signed in line with the expansion of our company to Hip-Hop and RnB!"

Three new artists stood, dressed as secret agents. One of them towered everybody else, looking familiar.

Jisung's eyes widened in surprise. "Is that...Jangmoon?"

As if on cue, Jangmoon spoke in a loud voice.

"Thank you for having me here!" he exclaimed. Then, he turned to June's table and pointed at

them. "June! I told you we'll see each other in different dreams soon."

June smiled and nodded as the cheers became even louder.

"I can't believe it," Jaeyong said, shaking his head in amusement.

"And last but not the least, we have my very precious boys-EVE-wait, no!"

The claps were halted when Jay realized his mistake.

"Sorry," he said. "Can't use that name just yet. Don't want to get sued."

"Anyway, let's welcome June, Zeth, Casper, Jisung, Ren, Akira, Jaeyong, and Sehun!"

The cheers were defeaning as the members stood from their seats. It seemed as if they were in a mini fan meeting with how the other artists treated them.

"We really need to come up with a new name soon," Jay muttered. "Anyway," he continued. "It's time to get this party started! Enjoy the food. Don't think about your diet for tonight, and let's have some fun! We will also be having games, so please participate in them as much as you can."

"And last but not least, by the end of the night, we will be announcing the winner of the 'Best Costume' award, who will be receiving a very nice prize. Are you all excited?"

"Yes!" the artists exclaimed.

"Let's party!"

That night became unforgettable for the artists. It was the most fun they ever had at a Halloween Party, and with Jay as the CEO, it didn't feel uncomfortable at all.

However, by the end of the night, all the artists became serious as they waited to be hailed as

the person with the best costume.

"And the winner is," Jay started off, building tension.

Everybody held their breaths-almost as if this was the finale of Rising Stars.

"Congratulations, June!" Jay exclaimed, taking the blue boy by surprise. His eyes widened

while the others groaned in disappointment.

However, they didn't resent the outcome because June did have the most memorable costume

of the night.

"Come on up here and claim your prize!"

June scratched the back of his head, some of the blue paint chipping and falling like dandruff

on the table. He stood and walked to the stage, where Jay was holding onto a very large gift

card.

"As I said, we want to make this year very special, and fortunately, our lovely sponsor generously awarded us with this gift. Honestly, I'm pretty jealous of it," he muttered, causing

the crowd to laugh.

"Congratulations! You have won a luxury room in Vista Residences!"

June's eyes nearly bulged out of their sockets while the rest of the artists were also shocked.

A condo?

They were going to award him a condo?

June didn't hesitate further and grabbed the gift card.

Maybe dressing as a spurf wasn't so bad after all.

With that, June's name trended all night.

However, as the clock ticked 12 and the new day had begun, the number one trend changed.
