LGC FUTURE DREAMS | TMI VIDEO

For a thirty second introduction video, Jude had went overboard with planning and executing it. He had an entire list of ideas written in his journal back at the dorm that had been discard for an idea that required less involvement. The introduction video was meant to be simple and he wanted to not stand out as much. He didn’t want to come off as the stereotypical film graduate that bragged about going to film school. 

He opted for an installation of photographs, and drawings that he had illustrated himself. He shot the entire video in his father’s studio, which required a lot of cleaning and moving his father’s art out of the way. He would probably have to sit and listen to another speech of disrespecting his father’s sanctuary, but desperate times called for desperate measures. He had been asked to show more of himself to the fans, and to the judges. 

The video starts off in a red-lit room, referencing to the dark room used to process films. A table could be seen in the forefront and an empty wall was the backdrop with a black wire with numerous clips already on them. He steps into the frame, feigning surprise to the ‘visitor’ behind the camera. “Oh, I didn’t hear you come in. Welcome to my hiding spot.” 

“Let me introduce myself.” He says with a faint smile tugging on his lips. “My name is Ahn Dohwan, but you can call me Jude. Named after that Beatle song.” He hangs up the first picture: a toddler picture of himself covered in a clay. “I was born and raised in England, but I traveled to the US and South Korea to spend time with my grandparents.” A second picture, in black and white, of the three flags are hung next to the first picture. “I’ve been drawing since I was young—” A simple, aged drawing of a dragon is hung up and is followed by a more detailed, charcoal interpretation of the drawing. 

“I have a Film, Television, and Multimedia degree that I obtained in South Korea” The fifth item that is hung up is a picture of him on set with a camera in his hand. “I graduated during the first season of Future Dreams. One of my proudest moments. The second touring with LGC Boys.” The sixth item is a photo of the members’ backs from backstage. “Now.. Do you mind if I take a picture of you?” 

The video ends after he lifts his camera to his face, eyeing the ‘visitor’ from the viewfinder.

LGC FUTURE DREAMS | VOCAL MISSION 

After being asked to stop hiding behind a guitar, he embraced the last vocal mission of the season when it was announced. It was a final chance to prove to himself and the judges that he wanted a position on the group as much as the rest of the trainees. He had acknowledged that he could be stubborn, but he never wanted to be seen as a safe artist. 

While the guitar was akin to a safety blanket for him, he was still capable of focusing entirely on performing and connecting with the song. He was relieved that the song didn’t warrant a dance performance. But after hearing the guided track, he could see why they hadn’t asked them to dance. No one could hide behind other members’ abilities. It was meant to separate the main and lead vocals from the support vocalists. 

Way to up the difficulty level, Future Dreams. 

He spent the allotted time practicing day in and day out. His apprehension was the higher notes required during the second half of the song. He was known for sticking with a lower register, and singing higher notes in Korean required a level of focus, articulation, and precision that he wasn’t as used to. He had spent the last few years acquiring the skill, but there were other trainees that it came more naturally to. While that thought had run through his head a couple of times during practice, he knew that it would be seen as an excuse for the judges.  

Instead, he chose to not be as calculated and enjoy the process of honing the ability with each day feeling freer to experiment and proud of himself. When the time came to perform, he not only had surpassed his expectations, but he had met the gazes of the judges, informing them that despite feedback being welcomed, he was content to showcase his best rendition to date in front of them. 

He couldn’t wait to perform the song with the team.

LGC FUTURE DREAMS | GRAND FINALE 

At the beginning of the season, he had felt an overwhelming degree of excitement about the possibility of debuting, but his emotions had wavered after being asked by the staff to prove himself once more. He was one gem away from accomplishing a long-term goal, and there was still a possibility that he would be asked to train for longer. He knew that he had improved to the point that he had impressed the staff, but the feedback he received about showcasing his personality had him second-guessing himself. 

He wasn’t as outgoing, or full of energy as the other trainees standing on stage, but he believed that there was a place in a group for him. There had to be a neutralizer in every group. Surely, that could be him? He was older than some of the remaining trainees, but he wasn’t a long-term trainee either. Was he forever doomed to be not as great but not remedial either? 

While he waited for the announcement, the host’s ability to stall had a sense of nervousness spreading outwardly from the inside. His fingers were cold and clammy, making him feel even more uncomfortable standing on stage. He wanted to enjoy the moment whether he was chosen or not, but he was afraid that he wouldn’t be able to fight back the expression of disappointment. 

Despite the fact that he had prepared himself for both scenarios, he still felt the stinging sensation behind his eyes. He refused to cry. That’s where he drew the line. He bit on the inside of his cheek, staring at the host’s face on the large screen in front of them while the scripted break was announced.

The staff really knew how to play with their emotions.

A soft laugh broke through his serious expression. Well, at least he could laugh now. His chest rose as he took a proper deep breath. He didn’t have any regrets this time around, and that was something that he could onto whether he lost or was chosen as a member of the new group.

[lgcjude]

he had a blast shooting the episode with allie. he couldn't believe how fast the time had flown by, yet he still felt like he hadn’t completed the task to the best of his abilities. however, he had learnt more about allie and that was what he appreciated about the show. he turns to glance at her while she speaks, nodding his head slightly in agreement. he was curious. what theme had she chosen for her song? 

“it’s a shame.” he comments, staring ahead into the camera with a faint smile on his lips. “i was having a lot of fun. i wanted to thank you for letting me join you today. i enjoyed seeing a glimpse of your creative process.” he raises a brow at her words and lifts his hands, disagreeing with her. “it won’t be my picture on the winner’s stick.” 

the corner of his lips tugged upwards into wide grin, hands dropping to his side while he turned his body to face her properly. “i’ll let you listen to my song as my consolation prize.” 

₊ ˟   episode four, and she’s waiting with bated breath.  she’s standing next to jude now, taking a quick glance at him and then back to the staff member as they start to tally the votes.  the episode seemed to fly by, and if allie didn’t really think she knew jude well at the beginning of the episode she finds that she’s at least learned a little about him now.  " it’s already the end of the episode.“ she mumbles, frowning a little but still excited at the same time.  after all, right now they’re about to find out who the winner of the final episode of the season will be.

she shifts her weight, knowing that this part of the episode is always the most nerve wracking.  ” i wonder which picture of yours they’re going to choose.“ allie ponders with a rather amused tone.  ” you know.  for the little winner’s stick.  maybe your headshot from future dreams? or do you think a selca?“  she pauses.  ” i’d really like to hear your song no matter who wins.  you looked like you were working really hard on it.“

CHALLENGING MISSION 

SONG | LYRIC DISTRIBUTION 

He still didn’t know where he stood amongst the other trainees. He had several positions throughout his seasons on Future Dreams, and as a member of Legacy Boys. He knew that in order to continue to want to stay on the current path he was on, he needed a goal that was reachable but challenging enough for him to avoid feeling burn-out. 

He wasn’t holding his breath for a center position but he wanted to be worthy of the main vocal position in a group. Or at best, a lead vocal position was something he could aspire to be. He wasn’t as vocally talented as the other members, but he had grown quite a lot since the first season, which was why he had been proud to receive the purple gem over any other gems.

He had been taken aback by not receiving the yellow gem. After sleeping on it, he understood why the executives didn’t complete his necklace. He knew that his calm demeanor could be mistaken for passivity, or his personality did not fit at all in Type Zero, which he could understand. The executives were still waiting for him to stop reverting back to what he deemed his comfort zone. If he wanted to be an idol, he couldn’t stand out for the wrong reasons. He had to find his own footing and not rely on anyone else to guide him there.

The second mission was the opportunity for him to challenge himself vocally and perhaps, persuade them to pull him out of the sub-vocal basement. Perhaps, that was a bit dramatic and he should be grateful to even get lines to begin with, but he could do much, much more. 

He had wanted to test out being the main vocal, but with the song chosen, there wasn’t much of a difference between lead and vocal. After the lyrics were distributed, he walked away with a good mix of lead and main vocal lines as well as rapping, which showed that he was adaptable and that wasn’t something to scoff at.

His only reservation had been the bright, boyish concept of the song. He had started off stiff during practice and unable to look at himself in the mirror, but eventually, he shook off his awkwardness and his smile wasn’t as forced. He wouldn’t admit out loud that he was coming around to the concept and actually enjoying himself. His bright smile throughout the last rounds of practice made that evident. Who knew a Shinee song would be the song to get him out of his shell?

lgcjiyeon​:

“I’ve been great! In fact, I think this is the happiest I’ve felt in a long time. Seeing you getting this far definitely boosts my mood, too!”

Jiyeon’s relief could not be described. It appeared as if both of them were in agreement that they lucked out being able to do the recording together. She paid close attention to the previous stages and songs performed in the past two seasons to gage how to tackle each returning trainee if she happened to recieve them for a recording.

Jude’s particular talents, from her observation, leaned in the singing area. His vocal color was the sort she enjoyed listened to in slower paced songs. Rich and full. Paired with his unique accent, she always longed to get her hands on his voice someday to make a proper song with it. Perhaps in the future she could convince him to record a demo or two for her. But, her own goals were not the focus here. Focus, focus.

She chuckled at his request for a gentle approach. Of course, Jiyeon would never think of acting any differently, but knowing Jude for as long as she did prompted a slightly sarcastic response. “Hm, I’m not sure. You’re witnessing producer Jiyeon for the first time so… maybe I’ll be more strict on you.” She couldn’t maintain it for long, though, and broke into a smile. “Do you want to go ahead and get in the booth then, since you’re ready?” 

“..Would you?” He inquires with a raised brow, crossing his arms over his chest. He wouldn’t put it past her if she indeed was strict on him. He wanted to see her as producer Jiyeon rather than his bestfriend, but he didn’t want to be on the receiving end of criticisms. However, there was a mutual understanding and affection that wasn’t there with the other producers. If he wanted someone to be honest with him, he preferred for it to be her than anyone else. 

“No hard feelings, eh?” He voices out in English, mirroring her smile before heading into the booth with his personal copies of the song lyrics. As per usual, he had written his notes in the margins, underlining and circling with colored pencils that had smeared on his fingers. He places the studio headphones over his head, leaving one of the ear cups off his hear. “Which song should we start with?” 

He had a preference over the two choices this season, but that didn’t matter since the two songs would be recorded and performed. Unfortunately for him, the song choices required an energy that he didn’t particularly have on his own. He could already picture Jiyeon teasing him for the next few days. He just had to suck it up.

KOREA’S ENTERTAINMENT AWARDS | BEST NEW BOY GROUP

A sense of restlessness had overcome him when the winner of the category was announced to be revealed after another performance. He had consciously avoided to cross his arms across his chest and guided his anxious energy to the rhythmic motion of his foot. Had his father been seated beside him, he would have asked him to stop several times but he couldn’t help it. He didn’t want to appear guarded or nervous, but there was a chance that LGC Boys could win. 

"And the award goes to..."

The words finalizing the suspenseful sentence has him envisioning the cliché record scratching sound in his head and the frame freezing subsequently. He could picture prominent memories that had been stored in his mind that varied widely in emotions. He had kept his mixed feelings about taking part of Future Dreams to himself. His experience had been made more difficult through his own decisions, but he wouldn’t have become the person who was sitting with LGC Boys had he not jumped at the opportunity. 

Nevertheless, he hadn’t thought of the muscle aches or the zombie-like veil that he waded throughout the first competition. He had come so far since then and now felt a sense of accomplishment that he couldn’t put into words. But there was a reason that he was smiling more, and enjoying the process that needed to occur before a song could be performed on stage. 

He had fallen in love with music again and the high he felt after performing was addicting. He was lucky enough to share the stage with sixteen other members who had helped him get to that point and not left him behind. He couldn’t exactly say that in his speech, but he was beyond thankful to everyone that had encouraged him to become a better, happier version of himself. 

LGC Boys was a temporary project to most, but the group was his foundation and served as motivation to continue improving. His speech was far more simpler than his thoughts, not wanting to take up meaningful time for the others who had more to say than him. He thanked the fans, the members, and the staff for their unconditional love and support.

lgcxking​:

sitting in the audience during awards show gets tricky after a while. king realized that soon after it began, with cameras shoved into his face more often than any human being would like, waiting to capture any reaction he might give. usually he would crave the attention, of course. it’s different when his girlfriend is sitting right across from him, or when he can’t show that he dislikes certain songs too much. it’s supposed to be a fun, rewarding time for idols but as it turns out, they never get a real break from their job or their public image. it’s not just the cameramen, too. the more dangerous ones are the fans, because unlike the professionals, their lens never leave king’s face. they will make sure to get every single one of his reactions, then post it online for other fans to watch.

they know the drill. he makes sure not to look in miso’s direction ever, mostly keeping his interactions limited to the boys sitting next to him. which brings to another issue. while his relationship with jude has certainly improved, since it started way below zero, there’s still a very steep hill to climb until they reach a level of friendliness. king feels neutral towards the guy now. before, he would have been unable to hide his discomfort. now, they both seem fine sitting together. having toured for weeks might have helped in that regard. jude isn’t as bad as king made him out to be. but to say he’s ready to bond with him…

king, too, notices the camera aimed at them during hwasa’s performance. it’s not exactly a song he would have wanted to bop his head to, so instead of suddenly faking it for the camera, he plays it cool, as if he’s watching with attention. after a couple seconds, the camera pans elsewhere, and king leans to jude. “you know that song?” it’s small talk, but it’s not like they have a choice in this context. they can’t hold passionate discussions, nor would king want to have one with jude ahn. but the friendlier they seem and the more kim hyuncheol will stay off his back about his relationship with his coworkers. 

his eyebrow raises when the younger male turns to speak to him. the cameras weren’t on them and he didn’t have to fake being close with him like he had been forced to on numerous occasions. he decided to shut off the judgmental tone of his inside voice for the night, but the words uttered next had an edge to them, which had him visibly cringing. “you don’t?” he hadn’t meant to come across like he deemed his taste of music to be superior. he didn’t believe that at all, but he was surprised that king wasn’t aware of a trending song. 

“i only know the song because i tend to listen to new releases.” he states, releasing the tension from his fingers as he sits up straighter. why was king so tall? their height difference wasn’t significant, but his seat partner’s proportions made him seem like a giant beside him. “i actually think you would relate to the meaning behind the song.” he knew that people like king had their own inner struggles that he battled unnecessarily on his own. he didn’t expect for the younger male to open up to him since he was just as guarded as he was. 

“i would be happy to recommend songs to you...” he says without much thought. if he was certain about one thing was that their music styles were quite different, but he was willing to offer an olive branch. after all, a new year was approaching. “with the condition that you do the same.” 

#lgc:yearend2020 #w: king

[lgcjude]

He had spent hours listening to the guides on loop to familiarize himself with the songs for season three. He had to commend the producers for being consistent with the song choices. He knew what to expect going forward, but he wanted to see what kind of artistic vision the executives had in mind for the second boy group to debut. He felt that the more he stuck with his current path, the process of letting go was becoming easier for him. 

He had been told of the time of the recording session and as he turned the doorknob, he hadn’t known who would be behind the door. For once, luck had been on his side and his arms tightened around his dear friend’s shoulders, lifting her off the ground for a brief moment. 

“I didn’t expect you at all.” He whispered with a faint smile as he placed her back down onto the ground. “I don’t need to answer those questions, do I? You know me well enough.” He says, dropping his backpack near the couch. “How have you been? I can’t believe that you get to lead me with recording a song.” 

He remained standing, smile widening as he observed in her own space. His heart surge with pride. Jiyeon’s career was just beginning, but he could envision her in a few years being known as a renowned producer in the industry. He shook his head at her question, crossing his arms comfortably over his chest. 

“I’m ready for you as I’ll ever be, but... be kind to me.” 

The atmosphere is hot, my passion is lit on fire. I’ve never learned to be afraid of failure. There’s no height I can’t go over. Just believe in myself. I’ll climb up one by one. The shouts of a winner. Listen to this ― VICTORY SONG ( @lgcjude )

How surreal. As the days passed, a steady career in music became closer to Jiyeon’s permanent reality. First, making a song for someone; second, receiving confirmation on her production alias; and now, she was meant to assist in recordings for Future Dreams. She was now the one with a relative amount of control and input to help a select few hopefuls. 

Admittedly, she sat in the recording room with her fingers crossed for one of the contestants in particular to walk through the door. One of the few that she became acquainted with or knew wouldn’t be prone to giving her a particularly difficult time. Someone to match her calmer demeanor. The door to the studio slowly slid open and her face lit up immediately.

“Jude!” Her first instinct was to jump from her chair and throw her arms around him in a friendly hug. She wasn’t sure how long it had been since she saw him last, the last time they had a drink together and spoke about things neither of them would tell anyone else. “How are you doing? Are you well? You’re sleeping and they’re feeding you enough at the dorms, right?”

As she conducted her brief interrogation, she planted herself back into the chair to scan over the lyric sheets. The songs given to the boys to perform weren’t particularly her cup of tea and such a fact was visible in the way she furrowed her brows listening to Raise The Roof, in particular. ( She supposed this was why she preferred composing music for girl groups instead. )

“Do you want to warm up first or are you ready to record?”

#lgc:futuredreams #w: jiyeon

[lgcjude]

Somehow, Jude had ended up at the dorm after the final end of the year event despite the plans he had set up for the long week ahead of him. His parents and sister had stayed abroad, and he hadn’t had this much free time on his hands since he arrived in Seoul years ago. He knew where his week would begin, but he could see himself at a lost by the end of his vacation. His dorm felt eerily quiet without his dormmates. As soon as he laid down on the bed, he made the decision to leave during the night instead of laying there tossing and turning until the Sun rose up into the sky. There was no curfew after all. His phone screen lights up when finishes zipping up his backpack, and he sits back down on the bed, unlocking the screen with his lengthy passcode. His face lit up upon seeing her name, corner of his lips tugging upwards into a bright smile. ＜to: 김나미 > happy new years, nami! i have a feeling that you would be a kind audience even if we did horribly but thank you for supporting us. it means a lot to me, and i know that you will be up there on stage one day too.  ＜to: 김나미 > do you live in seoul? or nearby. if you are ever free this week, i would love to hear your opinion on an art project i’ll be focusing on this week.  ＜to: 김나미 > we can always facetime.

it’s M I D N I G H T, and she isn’t alseep. naturally. who would be asleep during the first day of the year. and she has to spend as much time as possible with her family while she can. soon, she’ll have to return to the dorm, soon, she’ll have to practice again. she fidgets with her phone, locking and unlocking the device. should she? should she not? it’s too early she tells herself. thankfully, other messages come in, she replies to them. she eats with her family, they talk, they laugh and hours manage to pass like this. when 2am hits, she considers her phone once again. now? maybe later? or maybe tomorrow? she’s tempted to ask noeul about it, but she knows her older sister would make a fuss where there’s none to make. she’s just… a fan. yes, it’s minutes past 2am, now is fine, she decides.

✉   dohwan sunbaenim: hello ^^ today is the first day of 2021. i’ve watched the gayo stage last night~ you were really cool on stage sunbae! i wish for you that 2021 will be even more amazing than 2020!  ✉    dohwan sunbaenim: oh, it’s kim nami btw :p

poker face

2020 was ending, and he had several realizations since then. He had survived Future Dreams, successfully completed a tour with the members, and got to perform at the annual music festivals. He had begun to find the adrenaline felt after a performance addictive, and he wasn’t willing to walk away from the path he had chosen for now. LGC Boys had yet to perform, but he was looking forward to performing two songs for their first festival appearance. 

He found himself seated next to King, wondering how that could have happened. Usually, they were like poles repelling away from one another. A pertinent realization that he had was that King was no longer insufferable. The younger man had matured somewhat, and he could stomach having to spend time with him. He didn’t see himself becoming friends with him any time soon, but their interactions weren’t as forced as they had been in the previous year.

Mamamoo’s performance began with Hwasa’s single Maria, which he bobbed his head to the tempo of the music. The shift of the choreography in the post-chorus had his eyebrow raising, completely unaware that the cameras had turned to catch their shared reaction.

LGC ACCESS INTERVIEW / ESKA BOTTLED WATER 

He is suffering from a serious case of imposter syndrome when he shows up on set. He knew that he was far from a model, and there were other trainees more worthy of being in his position. He had shied from the modeling workshops when he was a trainee for a reason. He preferred being behind the camera, and there was a sense of awkwardness when he saw himself on the monitor. His only saving grace was the genes his parents gave him. He wasn’t cocky about his looks, but he knew that he was at the bare minimum photogenic. 

Perhaps, that was the reason Eska had stuck with him, but he could feel his stint of being a model for the water company coming to an end. When he was a trainee, he hadn’t known how important those classes would have been to him. He wanted to be a performer, but brand deals helped a lot with being recognized. 

Not to mention, the amount of money he received from a solo contract versus a group contract was much better. For the new year, his goal would be to be more comfortable in the camera and if possible, work up to getting a second contract with another company. It would require a lot of work, but he enjoyed a challenge. 

His photoshoot required an interview with LGC Access. He wonders what kind of questions he would be asked considering the company was selling bottled water and not something more exciting like a food product or apparel. His mood had been lifted after the snack break, and he welcomes all the questions that he receives from the interviewer with a smile. 

“What do you like the most about modeling for Eska Water?” 

“My generation knows the importance of being responsible for the waste that we create in our everyday lives.” He had his doubts about whether modeling for a bottled water company clashed with his morals, but after some consideration, he could answer the question with honesty. “While a lot of people are moving away from plastic bottles to use reusable water bottles, there are times where you have no choice but to purchase bottled water. Some people don’t have the access to clean water and can only use bottled water. For those reasons, I commend Eksa Water’s commitment to using 100% recycled plastic for their water bottles.” 

“Also,” He adds with a faint smirk. “I was told that staying hydrated helps with having healthy, clear skin, and our survival depends on drinking water whether or not we want to believe it.”

MASTERCHEF LEGACY  / INTERVIEW 

"The twist..." He trailed off, looking over the shoulders of the camera with a soft chuckle while pondering how to answer the question. He was still in disbelief of what had occurred earlier. “I didn’t expect it at all. How did I not expect a twist? I’ve watched cooking shows, but I was so focused on the dish we decided to cook and completely blanked when our country was switched. I had gathered all our ingredients, but we didn’t even touch the basket after. It makes me feel sad, but I was happy with the dishes we prepared.” 

“It’s a shame that we didn’t make an extra serving, because now I’m craving some patatas bravas.” He states, reaching up to rub his nape as a sheepish grin tugs up on the corner of his lips. “I want to thank my cooking partner, Miyoung, because, without her knowledge, we wouldn’t have been able to finish a dish. I was happy to be her sous-chef for the day, but I do regret that I wasn’t as prepared as I should have been. If I were to do the show again, I need to start cooking regularly. But going forward, I feel like I will be more willing to be more adventurous.”

lgcmiyoung​:

   ( ... ) 

    there was no time for panic, no time to make herself appear as a fool for all of korea to see. no, that’s bad publicity. 

    “um.” most groups seemed as panicked as they do, some appearing to keep a cool head as they race to figure out what to do next. wheels are turning in her head, mind floating back to previous nights spent in her bed watching whatever cooking clips the internet brought to her. what’s a dish we can do?

    “simple, yeah… oh!” she announces, clasping her hands together with a genuine smile. “how about patatas bravas?“

his mind had blanked entirely after the switch had occurred, but he had truly had no excuse since had visited a few times with his family. most dishes that he could think of were too daunting to attempt to cook on a show. he didn’t want to attempt to cook seafood and fail miserably on camera for eternity. while he was a deer in headlights, miyoung becomes their savior for the second time of the night. 

“patatas bravas?” he echoes, eyes gleaming with hope. not all was lost. “roasted potatoes with a spicy tomato sauce, right? should we experiment with the sauce, or go for the classic recipe?” he didn’t want to play it safe with the dish, but a classic rendition wasn’t something to be scoffed at especially since they weren’t professional chefs, but young adults that still ate at a cafeteria. “should we fry or use the oven?” 

“i’ll get the ingredients once again.” he says with a faint smile, meeting her gaze briefly. “it was a minor setback, but we can do this. i’m feeling confident.”

lgcdaeyeol​:

now they’re on their way off to film and daeyeol kind of feels like throwing up. just a little bit. he can’t tell if the nausea is starting from a place of nerves or just because he’s actually starting future dreams properly. it’s a foreign feeling that he has but he doesn’t really want to talk about it much. he worries that it might bring down the atmosphere.

but then jude asks him if he’s feeling nervous and daeyeol nods once, then twice and then slowly clings himself onto jude’s arm, wrapping his long arms around him. he looks away shyly for a second, just wanting someone to sit with him for the time being. 

“you’ve been on future dreams before hyung…” he starts omniously before looking up at jude. “do you always feel nervous? ‘cause this is my first time and i feel like i’m gonna vomit…”  

Upon seeing Daeyeol’s reaction, he regrets asking the one question that would exacerbate the emotion. It was akin to asking a person if they were okay when close to bursting into tears. He can sympathize, having been in a similar position not once but twice like his roommate points out. With a faint smile on his lips, he wrestles out of the younger boy’s grasp to embrace him properly and briefly for the sake of not falling behind from the group. 

“I have a feeling that once the music begins the nerves will disappear for you.” He tells him, knowing that his comforting words were just words for the time being. “And you can always glance in my direction if you need help. I felt nervous at the beginning but now nervousness turns into excitement while we wait for the music to start. Sometimes, mistakes happen but knowing you, I bet you will come across as charming.” 

“It’s a skit, but if you go blank just pretend that you’re talking to one of us.” He suggests, smile widening at the corners when he meets his gaze. “A crowd can sense who is genuine and who is not, and that is something you’re not lacking in.”
