lly held no hope for this drama.What's even more amusing is that all the actors, both leads and supporting roles, are idol group members with zero acting experience. This marks their first foray into..."President Ni," Wu Saik rushed into the office and bowed deeply.

Kim Young-min lightly nodded, placing the document in his hand down. He glanced at Wu Saik who was standing before him with bowed head.

As for this person in front of him, Kim Young-min didn't have much of an impression. They had only met a couple of times at most. He just seemed to have heard that he wasn't very honest during his trainee period.

But it doesn't matter.

"Kris, you've been training at the company for a few years now, right" Kim Young Min asked. He didn't actually remember how many years Wu Yifan had trained, he just wanted to start a conversation.

"Inside, President Ni, I have been practicing at the company for 5 years." Wu Saike bowed in response.

"Oh..." Kim Young-min nodded. "So you're a member of EXO now, are you"

"Inside, President Ni, I was previously selected for the EXO debut group and appointed as the captain of EXO-M. I will definitely not disappoint the company's expectations, I..."

"The company just made a decision."

Before Wu Saik could finish speaking, Kim Young-min directly interrupted him. Dealing with a trainee who hadn't even debuted, he wasn't bothered to beat around the bush and got straight to the point:

"After careful consideration from all angles, the company believes that your abilities still have many shortcomings and have not reached the standard for debut. For the success of this large-scale male group project and considering the development of the group, we have decided to withdraw you from the EXO project and re-train as a trainee at the company."

Kim Young-min announced Wu Saek's death sentence without any emotional fluctuation. At the end, it seemed as if some pity arose, and he added a formal consolation: "Your efforts have been seen by your company. Even returning to the trainee identity, keep practicing hard, be patient, and there will definitely be an opportunity for debut."

"...

" Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"This…"

"I..."

Wu Saike was stunned for a moment, as if he had heard some obscure slang. After a few seconds, he finally understood what Kim Young-min meant.

...After understanding, the whole person became a little dazed. His mouth opened and closed again, but he couldn't utter a complete word. His eyes stared blankly at Kim Young-min, who had picked up the document to check after finishing his words. Even his bangs, which grew long enough to cover his eyelids, couldn't hide the daze in his eyes.

He was stunned.

The life of a trainee is extremely hard, with endless training, regular harsh evaluations, and teachers' strict reprimands, all of which are difficult for ordinary people to endure. He himself isn't someone with strong determination, and the only reason he's been able to persevere until now is because there's a big carrot called 'debut' dangling in front of him.

A while ago, he finally finished filming his debut teaser video and music MV. Just as he was about to take a big bite of the "debut pie" in his hand because he was starving, he was directly announced OUT.

"I...he..."

Wu Saik wildly waved his hands a few times, shook his head in disbelief, and quickly thought of excuses and reasons to save himself in his chaotic mind. Suddenly, his eyes lit up, as if he had found a life-saving straw, and hurriedly said:

"Um, President Ni, but I've already finished filming my debut announcement video. It's supposed to be released soon according to the plan, and the music video for the first single is also done..."

"It's alright, for the sake of a long-term plan, the company will consider reshooting. The set built before hasn't been dismantled yet, so it won't take long." Kim Yeongmin glanced at Wu Saek, whose face was full of anticipation, as if he had found a glimmer of hope. Then, she turned her gaze back to the document in front of her and lightly crushed the last plank of support in the drowning man's hands.

"Alright, but President Ni, EXO is divided into two teams of six. If I'm not there, the numbers won't be balanced. A lot of dance formations will need to be rehearsed... I, I'm still the captain of Team M..."

"These issues the company will resolve, and the company will decide anew who joins the group, replacing your position. However, this is not something you need to consider."

Kim Eung Min was getting impatient. If it weren't for a slight tinge of pity for this person in front of him, he wouldn't have been so polite to a trainee for this long. "Alright, if there's nothing else, you can leave. You don't need to go to EXO's new practice room anymore either. Just go back to where a trainee should be."

"Redesignate Who Who replaced me"

"Damn it, it must be his fault. If it weren't for him..."

Wu Saik seemed not to have heard Kim Young-min's request for him to leave, or perhaps he deliberately ignored the rest of his words. He focused all his attention on the key point of 'replacing his position'. The veins on either side of his forehead bulged, with excitement, anger, hatred, and various other negative emotions flashing across his face.

But before he could vent, a loud bang interrupted him.

"Bang!"

A glass of water crashed violently onto the floor in front of Wu Saike, the jarring sound pulling him abruptly from his dazed state. It was only then that Wu Saike realized who he was facing.

"Geez! You good-for-nothing bastard, do you know your place" Kim Young Min glared at Wu Saik with icy eyes, his face clearly showing anger. There was still some water on his sleeve from when he had just thrown the cup, showing how hard he'd hurled it.

“…………”

Wu Saik was jolted awake. He realized he was talking to the company president, a high-level executive he normally wouldn't even come into contact with. The anger that had just surged through him shattered like a glass of water being smashed, and any budding rebellious feelings were immediately drowned out by the long-standing reverence and fear he felt.

"I..." Wu Saik seemed to want to apologize, but before he could speak, Kim Young-min swatted him away like a fly.

He could only grit his teeth and bow slightly, staggering as he prepared to leave the office. As he went out to close the door, he heard Kim Young-min's final warning: "Don't forget what I said."

But after Wu Sike left, Kim Young-min sat back in his chair easily, the anger that had just flashed across his face vanished instantly. He looked at the water glass on the ground and the spilled water, twitched his lips as if a little sorry, then picked up the internal phone casually and told his secretary to tidy up the office, then continued reading the documents.

As if nothing had just happened.

…………

Meanwhile, Ji-seong arrived at EXO's practice room with Lee Soo-man and Lee Seong-hwol as Wu Se-ke and Kim Yeong-min engaged in a completely unequal communication.
