❙ ✧ ›› YUJEONG ⨾ ISL REP.
the two teams from our girls' concept
have performed... which means it's now
time for our boys to show their hard
work! let's give them a warm welcome.

THE "DAY" VS. "NIGHT" AESTHETIC CONCEPTS OF THE MALE TEAMS : "BEAUTIFUL-X" AND "I&CREDIBLE" !

before we wrap up this evaluation, these

like the girls' songs, these two are very

bring that to the stage?

❙ ✧ ›› OH DAESHIM ⨾ 12/BEAT INT.
I'm just curious... who here were from
wave last mission?

FOUR BOYS INCLUDING DAESHIM RAISE THEIR HANDS !

❙ ✧ ›› ZHAO LIAN ⨾ 4/KQ
I would rather not look back at that
mission.

❙ ✧ ›› HWA MINYEOL ⨾ 13/KQ
didn't your team win though? you
were center too.

❙ ✧ ›› KWON DAEWON ⨾ 9/BE:LIFT
we may have won but it was at a cost.

❙ ✧ ›› SEO HYUNWOO ⨾ 1/WM
...should I be worried? I thought you
guys did very well. both teams.

❙ ✧ ›› ZHAO LIAN ⨾ 4/KQ
one word: trauma.

❙ ✧ ›› SEO HYUNWOO ⨾ 1/WM
[ opens mouth then closes it ]

❙ ✧ ›› KANG JAEWON ⨾ 11/IST
should we do a center battle to
start then?

❙ ✧ ›› SEO HYUNWOO ⨾ 1/WM
yes! let's do that. is there anyone
who doesn't want to be a center
candidate?

THREE OUT OF FIVE WAVE MEMBERS RAISE THEIR HANDS !

❙ ✧ ›› ZHAO LIAN ⨾ 4/KQ
I would rather sell my lucky gold fish
than become center again... for a concept
like this at least.

❙ ✧ ›› HWA MINYEOL ⨾ 13/KQ
I just. don't want to go for it. I think
I'd be better suited for a different role.

❙ ✧ ›› OH DAESHIM ⨾ 12/BEAT INT.
as much as I want to redeem myself...
I want to do that vocally. not by being
center.

❙ ✧ ›› SEO HYUNWOO ⨾ 1/WM
jaewon, you've been pretty quiet. did you
want to try for center?

❙ ✧ ›› KANG JAEWON ⨾ 11/IST
...sure? I don't think I'll get it but
it wouldn't hurt to try.

AND WITH THAT, THE BOYS BEGIN THEIR CENTER BATTLE !

AFTER VOTING COMMENCED. . .

‎

‎

‎

‎

‎

‎

❙ ✧ ›› SEO HYUNWOO ⨾ 1/WM
our official center is...

❙ ✧ ›› SEO HYUNWOO ⨾ 1/WM
[ points ] kang eunwoo!

❙ ✧ ›› KANG EUNWOO ⨾ 15/BNM
thanks? what did I do though.

❙ ✧ ›› KANG EUNWOO ⨾ 15/BNM
like I did the center part yeah but
I genuinely thought hyunwoo would
get it.

❙ ✧ ›› ZHAO LIAN ⨾ 4/KQ
I can see why you thought that but
nope! you fit the parts the best so...
yeah.

❙ ✧ ›› OH DAESHIM ⨾ 12/BEAT INT.
now that we've figured that out...
how do we want to go about our
main vocalist, rapper, and dancer?

❙ ✧ ›› SEO HYUNWOO ⨾ 1/WM
I've been a main vocalist already so
I can give the spot away... did you
want it daeshim? I heard you mumbling
to yourself about that awhile ago.

❙ ✧ ›› OH DAESHIM ⨾ 12/BEAT INT.
[ coughs ] you weren't supposed to
hear any of that.

❙ ✧ ›› OH DAESHIM ⨾ 12/BEAT INT.
but sure! I would like to prove that I
can indeed be a main vocalist.

❙ ✧ ›› KANG JAEWON ⨾ 11/IST
great. now... we have three rappers.
how do we want to go about this?

❙ ✧ ›› KWON DAEWON ⨾ 9/BE:LIFT
[ gasps ] a rapper battle.

❙ ✧ ›› HWA MINYEOL ⨾ 13/KQ
do we want to freestyle this or find
a section from the song?

❙ ✧ ›› ZHAO LIAN ⨾ 4/KQ
hmmmm. I think to make sure the
skills work for the song, we should
find a section and use that.

❙ ✧ ›› KANG EUNWOO ⨾ 15/BNM
okay. so, how about we use this
section then? [ points to pre-chorus ]

❙ ✧ ›› HWA MINYEOL ⨾ 13/KQ
that works for me!

❙ ✧ ›› ZHAO LIAN ⨾ 4/KQ
then let's get this show on the road.

THE BOYS BEGIN THEIR 'RAP BATTLE' . . .

WHAT WILL THE RESULTS BE ?

‎

‎

‎

‎

‎

‎

‎

‎

‎

‎

‎

‎

FIRST DAY WITH THE TRAINING TEAM, KAI AND DAEHWI. . .

❙ ✧ ›› KAI ⨾ D. MENTOR
you guys have everything decided?

❙ ✧ ›› SEO HYUNWOO ⨾ 1/WM
[ nods ] yep! I think the only thing
we didn't have a 'friendly fight' over
was the main dancer position as
we all collectively agreed that it
suited lian the best.

❙ ✧ ›› DAEHWI ⨾ ISL REP.
and no one was against this?

❙ ✧ ›› KANG JAEWON ⨾ 11/IST
it's not that I'm against it... I just
wanted to be able to show more of
myself before I leave.

❙ ✧ ›› DAEHWI ⨾ ISL REP.
"before you leave"?

❙ ✧ ›› DAEHWI ⨾ ISL REP.
you're talking like you know you
won't make it next round.

❙ ✧ ›› HWA MINYEOL ⨾ 13/KQ
have faith in yourself, jaewon!

❙ ✧ ›› SEO HYUNWOO ⨾ 1/WM
I'm probably the last person you
want to hear this from but, you
will make it next round. you'll
make it.

❙ ✧ ›› KAI ⨾ D. MENTOR
you don't need a main position to
stand your ground or stand out.
sure it helps, but it's never been
a requirement.

❙ ✧ ›› KAI ⨾ D. MENTOR
shall we see what you guys have
done performance wise? that way
this session is more than just
talking?

THE BOYS NOD THEIR HEADS AND BEGIN THE PERFORMANCE AND IT CUTS TO THE ENDING TO PREVENT SPOILERS . . .

❙ ✧ ›› DAEHWI ⨾ ISL REP.
not bad. not bad at all.

❙ ✧ ›› DAEHWI ⨾ ISL REP.
however, two concerns. who is your
center again?

❙ ✧ ›› ZHAO LIAN ⨾ 4/KQ
[ points ] kang eunwoo.

❙ ✧ ›› DAEHWI ⨾ ISL REP.
really? it's almost like he forgot that
he was given the role.

❙ ✧ ›› KANG EUNWOO ⨾ 15/BNM
that's because I'm not-

❙ ✧ ›› KANG EUNWOO ⨾ 15/BNM
[ realizes ] OH WAIT-

DAEHWI AND KAI HOLD BACK LAUGHTER AND ATTEMPT TO MAINTAIN THEIR STOIC FACES AND POSTURE . . .

❙ ✧ ›› DAEHWI ⨾ ISL.
and the second concern, will
daeshim be able to hold the notes
as he performs? that's the biggest
job as the main vocalist. being able
to hold the note despite performing
moments prior.

❙ ✧ ›› SEO HYUNWOO ⨾ 1/WM
I can help him with that if he needs
it.

❙ ✧ ›› KAI ⨾ D. MENTOR
well, if he needs help for it, why weren't
you selected for the position?

❙ ✧ ›› SEO HYUNWOO ⨾ 1/WM
I've been in the main vocalist position
already... so I wanted to give someone
else the chance. I'd rather help someone
with it than steal it from them.

❙ ✧ ›› KAI ⨾ D. MENTOR
I like your mentality. [ claps hands ]
okay! overall, I think you guys are
good. just work on polishing and
don't forget what daehwi said on
the main vocal holding the notes.

DAEHWI NODS HIS HEAD AND THE BOYS AGREE !

HOW WILL THEIR PERFORMANCE TURN OUT . . . ?

[ mentors on screen ]

❙ ✧ ›› DAEHWI ⨾ ISL REP.
what's funny about their team is that
their center forgot he was the center
during the interim check. thankfully
he picked up the slack during rehearsal
and has shown his best sides during
this performance. he suits it very well,
I see why they chose him.

❙ ✧ ›› EXY ⨾ R. MENTOR
I'm a bit disappointed that minyeol
got the least amount of lines when
his position would signify him getting
more. however, I can't be picky since
it's not that much of a rap song... but
still the difference is very evident.
overall great job though.

────────────────────────

ONLY ONE STAGE REMAINS BEFORE THE RESULTS WILL BE REVEALED !

❙ ✧ ›› MARUYAMA KOTARO ⨾ 3/WOOLLIM
i&credible is a great song... but it's also
very lackluster in terms of skill showing
ability. at least vocally and rap wise.

❙ ✧ ›› MARSHALL JEON ⨾ 2/KQ
while you're not wrong, I think that's almost
a benefit for us.

❙ ✧ ›› MAE DONGCHEOL ⨾ 5/BEAT INT.
are you insinuating that our vocalists
and rappers won't have to work that
much for this?

❙ ✧ ›› MARSHALL JEON ⨾ 2/KQ
I mean...

❙ ✧ ›› CHOI JUNSEO ⨾ 8/BEAT INT.
listen I'm just happy that I'm not with-

❙ ✧ ›› XU YUANJUN ⨾ 7/BNN
seo hyunwoo. yeah we know junseo,
it's written all over your face.

❙ ✧ ›› CAIRO HWANG ⨾ 14/BNM
the way you avoid him makes it seem
like you're into him but shy.

❙ ✧ ›› CHOI JUNSEO ⨾ 8/BEAT INT.
ew. I would rather dig a hole and jump
into it myself.

❙ ✧ ›› CAIRO HWANG ⨾ 14/BNM
hey, I'm just saying. [ puts his hands up
in the air in defense ]

❙ ✧ ›› XU YUANJUN ⨾ 7/BNM
okay. let's move on... we should
probably decide on a leader?

EVERYONE LOOKS AT YUANJUN !

❙ ✧ ›› XU YUANJUN ⨾ 7/BNM
nevermind. I guess I will become the
leader.

❙ ✧ ›› MAE DONGCHEOL ⨾ 5/BEAT INT.
it's just the easiest seeing as you're
the one with the most leadership
qualities out of all of us.

❙ ✧ ›› MARSHALL JEON ⨾ 2/KQ
ouch.

❙ ✧ ›› MAE DONGCHEOL ⨾ 5/BEAT INT.
[ realizes ] wait, no! that's not what I-

❙ ✧ ›› MARSHALL JEON ⨾ 2/KQ
I'm just messing with you, cheol.
don't worry about it.

❙ ✧ ›› KANG HAEJOO ⨾ 6/IST
you're so evil for that. [ laughs ]

THE BOYS WORK ON DISTRIBUTING PARTS . . .

A COUPLE HOURS LATER, FAINT SOUNDS OF THINGS BEING THROWN IS HEARD . . . ?

❙ ✧ ›› CAIRO HWANG ⨾ 14/BNM
first of all, why do you have m&m's,
that isn't sponsored by the show-

❙ ✧ ›› CAIRO HWANG ⨾ 14/BNM
[ covers face ] and secondly,
WHY ARE YOU THROWING THEM AT
US?

❙ ✧ ›› XU YUANJUN ⨾ 7/BNM
TO SHOW DOMINANCE. [ throws
a red m&m at cairo ]

❙ ✧ ›› KANG HAEJOO ⨾ 6/IST
I think he wants us to get into
position again.

❙ ✧ ›› XU YUANJUN ⨾ 7/BNM
exactly. see, that's a good student
right of mine right there.

❙ ✧ ›› MARUYAMA KOTARO ⨾ 3/WOOLLIM
do I want to know why you have
a nerf gun behind your bag? [ points ]

❙ ✧ ›› NAM YOUNGSEOK ⨾ 10/STARSHIP
[ pleading ] don't make him explain. I don't
want to know.

❙ ✧ ›› CHOI JUNSEO ⨾ 8/BEAT INT.
...too late.

MAE DONGCHEOL HAD ACCIDENTALLY MADE A MISTAKE IN THE CHOREOGRAPHY . . .

❙ ✧ ›› XU YUANJUN ⨾ 7/BNM
dongcheol... prepare to get annihilated!

❙ ✧ ›› MAE DONGCHEOL ⨾ 5/BEAT INT.
WHAT? IT WAS AN ACCIDENT!

❙ ✧ ›› CAIRO HWANG ⨾ 14/BNM
a mistake is a mistake to him I guess...
good luck soldier. [ salutes to dongcheol ]

❙ ✧ ›› NAM YOUNGSEOK ⨾ 10/STARSHIP
I refuse to believe that this is happening.
are we sure we made the right choice
making him leader...?

❙ ✧ ›› MARSHALL JEON ⨾ 2/KQ
no one else stepped up to the
plate so...

❙ ✧ ›› NAM YOUNGSEOK ⨾ 10/STARSHIP
that doesn't make this situation any
less calming.

AFTER SHOOTING DONGCHEOL FOR A MINUTE, YUANJUN GOT BORED AND SAID HE WOULD LEAVE FOR A FEW SECONDS !

❙ ✧ ›› KANG HAEJOO ⨾ 6/IST
should we be concerned?

❙ ✧ ›› MARUYAMA KOTARO ⨾ 3/WOOLLIM
...nah.

❙ ✧ ›› MARUYAMA KOTARO ⨾ 3/WOOLLIM
I would just suggest we get into position
so he doesn't attack us with whatever he
has planned next.

❙ ✧ ›› MAE DONGCHEOL ⨾ 5/BEAT INT.
yeah I would really like to not be the
target this time so someone else make
the mistake.

❙ ✧ ›› CHOI JUNSEO ⨾ 8/BEAT INT.
I volunteer youngseok as tribute.

❙ ✧ ›› NAM YOUNGSEOK ⨾ 10/STARSHIP
why me?!

❙ ✧ ›› CHOI JUNSEO ⨾ 8/BEAT INT.
[ shrugs shoulders ] not sure. just felt
like it.

❙ ✧ ›› CAIRO HWANG ⨾ 14/BNM
you are such an evil person.

❙ ✧ ›› CHOI JUNSEO ⨾ 8/BEAT INT.
suck it up, buttercup.

CAIRO PLAYFULLY SCOFFS BEFORE YUANJUN ENTERS THE ROOM AGAIN. . . AND HE'S HOLDING SOMETHING ?

❙ ✧ ›› KANG HAEJOO ⨾ 6/IST
...one, why are you wet, and two, why
are you holding water balloons?

❙ ✧ ›› XU YUANJUN ⨾ 7/BNM
would you like to find out? [ brings
hand back and aims at haejoo ]

HAEJOO SCREAMS AND THE CAMERA CUTS TO A BLACK SCREEN . . .

‎

‎

‎

‎

‎

‎

E/N : we don't know how he got the water balloons. but he did, in fact, throw them at his members.

LATER , AT THEIR INTERIM CHECK WITH THE MENTORS . . .

❙ ✧ ›› KAI ⨾ D. MENTOR
...why are you guys soaked?

❙ ✧ ›› I&CREDIBLE ⨾ DIAMONDS
[ points at yuanjun ]

❙ ✧ ›› KAI ⨾ D. MENTOR
and he was appointed as the
leader? I feel like you chose a
dictator more than a collective
leader. [ laughs ]

❙ ✧ ›› KANG HAEJOO ⨾ 6/IST
pushing aside the water throwing,
he did a lot as our leader! he helped
us with a little bit of everything.

❙ ✧ ›› DAEHWI ⨾ ISL REP.
shall we test that theory? let's see
what you guys have so far.

AS THE BOYS GET INTO POSITION , THEY BEGIN PERFORMING BEFORE IT CUTS TO THE END !

❙ ✧ ›› KAI ⨾ D. MENTOR
[ nods head ] not bad. I think
the main thing would be to help
make sure dongcheol knows the
choreography to the best of his
abilities... since he is definitely
more behind in timing than the
rest of you.

❙ ✧ ›› DAEHWI ⨾ ISL REP.
I just had a thought.

❙ ✧ ›› DAEHWI ⨾ ISL REP.
dongcheol has the least amount
of lines... aren't you frustrated?

❙ ✧ ›› KAI ⨾ D. MENTOR
now that you mention it... yeah.
you showed a lot more of your
abilities last mission. what made
you agree with these lines?

❙ ✧ ›› MAE DONGCHEOL ⨾ 5/BEAT INT.
well... I'm not entirely sure. I'm
honestly happy with them. I think
I can potentially steal the show even
despite my lack of lines. [ smiles ]

❙ ✧ ›› DAEHWI ⨾ ISL REP.
I see. I stand by that. I think you guys will
do just fine. like kai said, just make sure
you all work on timing as well as help
dongcheol here with the choreography!

❙ ✧ ›› KAI ⨾ D. MENTOR
good luck, boys.

WITH KAI AND DAEHWI'S APPROVAL , HOW WILL THEIR PERFORMANCE GO ?

how to perform. even with the least
amount of lines. it's amazing!

" ON-SITE " VOTING

#01. you can only send in a voting form once! also, only in silver lining participants and readers are encouraged to vote. this is purely because I don't want random people who haven't read the show at all to vote blindly.

✎ (❁ᴗ͈ˬᴗ͈) RUNE'S ROOM !

I'm so sorry this is out so late.
I was having really shitty days
the last few weeks, with being
sick, to a raging ear infection,
to school being a bitch as well
as work... I had a lot on my plate.

however, I will say that I genuinely
had a lot of fun working on this
chapter and writing i&credible's
team dynamic was my favourite
part. I also took inspiration from
a moment in boys planet... lmk if
you caught it lol. anywho, yes!
there is only one mission left before
the finale... I can't believe it.

LASTLY! there will be a global voting
time frame soon! it will start once
part three of episode five is published,
and it will last a full week. votes will,
as usual, remain UNLIMITED, and you
may tag users to vote as well. the
main global voting chapter will be
unpublished and published again
with the edits after. don't forget!

love u all ♡
