On the premiere day of the S+ idol survival show "Idol Training Diary," every contestant was reborn.
The five industry plants who had debuted in a group in their past lives, the trainee from Korea who had dropped out midway, the veteran contestant who had failed to make the top twelve, the cannon fodder who had just missed the debut lineup... Everyone had the script for the future in hand, considered a debut spot theirs for the taking, and had their eyes fixed on the center position.
Everyone thought they had this life under control. They threw themselves into the competition, confident of victory.
Only Su Yushuang was an exception.
He wasn't reborn. He had transmigrated into a book.
In an idol survival novel, Su Yushuang was written as a "fake rich second-generation" cannon-fodder character. His family went bankrupt when he was fourteen, leaving him with enormous debts. At eighteen, he risked everything by entering an idol competition. He was eliminated in the first round, the second round, and the third round, then withdrew on finals night, only to end up in eighth place, just outside the debut lineup... He gave it everything he had, getting close to a debut spot again and again, only to fail every time. In the end, he finally awakened to the truth: his life had been written out for him long ago.
Perhaps it was that unwillingness to accept his fate that brought him to the real-world competition.
At first, no one paid any attention to the addition of Su Yushuang.
And no one knew that behind the cute, bright-eyed boy with symmetrical moles beneath his eyes lurked a second personality: defiant, cold, ruthless, and skilled at disguise.
While the reborn contestants schemed with their scripts from the future, fought for screen time, banded together to climb the rankings, and sabotaged their rivals, Su Yushuang played the role of a transparent, pitiful nobody, quietly coasting along. Meanwhile, in corners where no one could see, his two personalities took turns coming out, relentlessly training his singing and dancing. His improvement was so rapid that he quietly left everyone else in the dust.
The reborn contestants schemed and schemed, guarding against every dark horse, dark horse, dark horse, yet overlooked this seemingly ordinary outsider with no ambition whatsoever.
Later, producers across the internet went wild with support for him, the mentors showered him with affection, and he took first place by a landslide in the voting.
Everyone was dumbfounded:
We were reborn with memories of our past lives. How did an ordinary nobody quietly take the top spot and become a legend all the way through?
Su Yushuang lowered his eyes and smiled, two emotions quietly turning in his gaze.
Sorry, you lot are competing with scripts from your past lives. I'm here to crush the whole field.
