I'm Really A Kpop Idol 36 Snow Girls

Unlike last time, everything also went smoothly for Jun as they only performed 5 times for the pre-record before the director said okay. And later, at 6 o'clock as the show started, everyone performed live on stage for the audience, although it will neither be telecasted nor there are any live votes or Experts voting.

After all the performances are over, at 6:55 in the evening, the program's MC announced the results. Looking at the score, even Jun got shocked as they weren't just at the 1st position in the ranking. Of the 20 idol groups, their overall percentage was 32.3% and the second position was singer OS with only 7.4%.

Changwon of Q Dream clapped along with everyone else and sighed looking at Dohyun as he went on to the stage, "Dohyun, the difference between our groups is too vast that I can't think of competing with you even in my dreams, anymore".

Although they didn't do bad, still, Q Dream was in the 12th position with 2.14% and the difference between them and Unlimited is... I guess no one needs to say anything.

Meanwhile, after bowing to everyone else after being announced as "Rookie Champion of the week" and "Energetic" song was announced as "Song Champion of the week," Unlimited returned to their dorm by 8 P.M.

While the rest were watching YouTube comments, Jun called his mother. While she was happy of his success, his grandfather was way too happy since he doesn't have any sons or blood-related brothers and Jun was the only grandson of him, who is also the pride of him, although he frowns at Jun's mother when she talks about Yungja and her idol career.

Well, typical grandparents like to be that way. They love their grandson more than their grand-daughter and definitely don't want the girls in their family wearing those revealing clothes, etc...

The next day on Thursday, once again, the team traveled to Seoul to Mnet television studio for the "M Countdown" music show. As this show only pre-records one performance and be done with it, Jun also didn't find many idols at the studio since there's no need to pre-record on the day of Broadcast too.

This one decreased a lot of pressure on them. It didn't even take much time to complete and return. Since they don't need to perform live, After finis.h.i.+ng their pre-record by 11:30 in the morning, after performing it just 3 times before the director said okay, they returned to their dorm to enjoy the rest of the day.

As for the show, it's a two-hour long show promoting 30 artists, 15 male, and 15 female groups and announce the winner by calculating in categories like Digital sales with 40% and Physical sales with 10%, live votes with 10% and pre-vote with 10%, broadcasting popularity with 10% and SNS with 10%.

Like "The Show" program, it also has 10K points and the best in each category receives the maximum points. And "Energetic" song, which is popular everywhere, easily won in all categories and earned a full 10K points making Unlimited, 9th artist to won 10K points in the past 4 years and 2nd rookie artist after Signature's Revolution in the past year.

The next day, on Friday, came the important moment for Jun and others as it's the day when the most popular music show, "Music Bank" of Korean Broadcast service (KBS) channel, will air on. Unlike other shows, which were only limited to Seoul or Korea, this one airs in more than 100 countries all over the world.

Its format is different from the rest of the music shows. It will neither take the money or pre-record videos to promote the music songs. The show is 90 minutes long and they will top 50 songs of the week of which 50-21, will be shown only their artist name and the song name like news headlines while top 20-1 will be shown full original video songs and get announced by hosts. In the end, the top two artists will be called to their studio to perform live on stage. No pre-recording, although lipsyncing is allowed like other music shows.

As for the calculations, 65% of it is Digital sales, from apps and sites like Genie, Melon, Bugs, Naver Music, Soribada. 5% is Physical sales from the most trusted source Hanteo alb.u.m chart, 20% is Broadcast from how many songs have been in KBS programs, television or radio programs and 10% is Viewer panel survey, which was a survey from viewers who are registered for KBS survey panel.

In the afternoon at 3 o'clock, as Jun was wasting the ingredients to practice his cooking skill, just trying to make all kinds of things he likes, his mobile rang. Looking at the number, Jun lift the call, "h.e.l.lo, noona?" Hyesun replied with happiness, "congratulations. You are being called to KBS studio for Music Bank's live performance. We'll be leaving at 4 o'clock. Tell the news to the boys and practice the ch.o.r.eography once more."

Jun immediately left the kitchen and informed them about it, making Dohyun jump in excitement. After practicing the Ch.o.r.eography in their small private training room at the dorm, they left for Seoul at 4 P.M. with Hyesun. Reaching the studio, Jun and the rest saw an unfamiliar female group with 12 of them were waiting there, in their pretty outfits.

Looking at them arriving, they stood up and greeted them and Jun also returned the greeting with a bow. After Hyesun went away to have a talk with the staff, Jun introduced his group while finding one of them very familiar, "h.e.l.lo, we're Unlimited." The leader of their group introduced them in return, "we're Snow Girls of Square Entertainment."

Dohyun immediately screamed like a fanboy, "ah! it's you. Sa Jiyeon sunbae of cla.s.s 3B, aren't you?" While Jun and the rest turned towards him curiously, Dohyun continued with his usual excited expression, "we went to the same school, BHS. You don't know me but I know you."

As the rest of the girls including Jiyeon looked at him in a surprise, he looked at Jun and said, "Hyung, Jiyeon sunbae was the student president at our high school and was t.i.tled as the school princess. Hyung, I told you right, the one I used to have a crush when I was in my first year? She was the one." Then, he looked at her and bowed again, "it's nice to meet you, finally, sunbae."

Jiyeon, who was already struck by the shock and looking at his behavior, didn't know how to react as they were the ones who are looking forward to meeting these rookies, who debuted two years later than them and yet more popular and one of them even claimed that she was his crush.

As she didn't know what to speak and stood like awkwardly while the other girls began to giggle, Jun, who realized the situation, interrupted and spoke, "I apologize for the inconvenience, please don't mind him. He's a little bit hyperactive." Then, he bends his neck and whispered slowly, "Minsu, shut up his mouth for a while. He'll ruin all of our reputation in one minute."
