[Showbiz] The Orange Cat I Rescued Forces Me to Improve. Synopsis:
After staying up all night at the studio once again, Min got back to the dorm at five in the morning and went to bed. He was woken by a familiar feeling of suffocation...
His swollen, squinty eyes opened a crack. A solid block of orange, without a single stray hair, nearly blinded him. A big orange cat, white paws the only exception to its otherwise thoroughly orange coat, was sleeping on the pillow with its butt pointed at his face...
Min Kitty: Beep... He casually raised a hand and expertly flipped the big orange cat onto the floor.
Big Orange: Huh??? Have you gotten too big for your britches, pretty boy? I'm doing you a favor by letting you dote on me, and you dare throw me! Beep...
Without even looking at the big orange cat, which had been thrown off the bed and was swearing up a storm, he shouted, "Hey! Which little punk put this pig in my room again? Beep..."
In the living room, the 95-line piggies were petting Ramen and Kimchi and watching TV, pretending not to hear the man and cat arguing in the bedroom.
Park Sticky Rice Ball: How many times has this happened this month?
TaeTae: Maybe seven...
Spoiler: Min Yoongi will get a special skill...
No female lead, no pairings. A goofy, fun story about seven men and three cats. The names are based on puns, with some authorial liberties and OOC characterization. Anti-piracy settings are enabled.

New upcoming story:
Please add [Showbiz] Cute Creatures Are Not for Sale to your collection!
Synopsis:
A mysterious cute-creature comfort shop has opened in Seoul. Its customers are entertainers and staff under pressure in the showbiz industry. The shop isn't big, but it has plenty of rules.
Shop manager: Zheng Jingyi (former screenwriter)
Staff: All sorts of cute creatures who earn their keep by acting adorable, cuddling, and rolling around, including but not limited to cats, dogs, chinchillas, hamsters, and little white rabbits...
Shop rules:
1. You must work in an industry related to showbiz.
2. You must be introduced by an existing customer.
3. The shop's cute creatures are in high demand and have busy schedules. Book in advance.
4. Any action that harms a cute creature is prohibited. Anyone caught doing so will be exposed through the shop's surveillance footage.
5. The shop's cute creatures are not for sale.
Little bonus scene:
A pure white Samoyed was curled up on a bay window, watching two female idols nearby. They were cuddling a pair of Munchkin cats and a lop-eared rabbit while watching a TV show. The two cute creatures were exceptionally well-behaved, staring at the screen as intently as humans.
The Samoyed's snow-white paw nudged the giant flying squirrel nestled beside its belly. "Hey, little mouse, those two beauties make us watch TV with them every time they come. Can't they watch at home?"
The flying squirrel kicked the dog's belly with its little feet. It didn't hurt at all. "Idiot! Say that again! I'm not a mouse!"
Their racket disturbed the cat and lop-eared rabbit, who had been engrossed in the show. The two were used to this sort of thing.
The Munchkin cat shifted into a lazy sprawl. "No wonder those two are always at the bottom of the monthly rankings..."
The lop-eared rabbit held up its own ears and gave them a couple of rubs. "I can't figure out how those two childish idiots passed Jingyi's interview..."
Completed story:
[Showbiz] My Dog Keeps Bringing Idols Home
Also known as The Dog Got Fat, Let's Eat Him. The owner works on his career, while the dog chases idols. The male lead is tentatively set to debut in a limited group formed by a PD, then go solo.
Synopsis:
Lian Cheng opened his eyes and found that he had gone from being a guqin musician to an underage "orphan" in a neighboring country, accompanied by only one unruly husky.
By chance, he was signed as a trainee by an unknown small company. His chaotic life in a foreign land was about to begin.
But can someone tell him what kind of radar this dog has? Every time it escapes, it brings back an idol...
Trainee Lian Cheng's daily face-slapping:
Haters: This guy used to wear a ** school uniform and pretend to be a top student, but students at the school said there was no one like him. Then during a livestream, he gave up pretending and said he was only average in his class. Yeah, right.
Lian Cheng's desk mate: Lian Cheng went to Seoul High School. As everyone knows, the first class in each grade is the best. You can draw your own conclusions.
Haters: He got an A in the initial evaluation without even dancing. His singing is just okay. He's obviously the company's favorite.
1M Studio: Someone's questioning our Lian Cheng's dancing skills? Look up CC from three years ago. Maybe that'll help some people...
Haters: This guy's unbelievable, saying he can play the Chinese guqin, kkkk. We can't tell if he's any good anyway, so he can brag all he wants.
Guqin soloist from the China National Traditional Orchestra: The young man is quite good. If you get the chance, we'd be happy to welcome you to China to study.
Haters: Damn it! Whoever wants to be a hater can have the job!
Newbie cat dad Lian Cheng's daily routine: Go to school, practice the guqin, crush the husky's head.
After becoming a trainee, Lian Cheng's daily routine: Go to school, train, crush the husky's head.
After debuting, Lian Cheng's daily routine: Make money, face-slap the haters, crush the husky's head.
P.S. Cute pets, healing moments, and chaotic fun.
The owner works on his career, while the dog chases idols.

After looking at the thread, let's mend the oranges. The little animals are really cute!
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh I cried so much. It's great that Orange is back and I can stay with them all the time.
Thank you. I shed a few crocodile tears when I was hit by a knife.
Tears, it's so good, Orange is back to accompany Min Maomao
I want the next part of Orange
This is probably the reason why I have never dared to keep a pet. I am afraid that I will not be able to take care of him. I am afraid of what if I raise him and then dislike taking care of him. I am afraid of what I will do if he leaves before me. I am afraid of what he will do if I am better than him. I was too scared, so I never dared to raise one. I want to keep pets in the last twenty years of my life, but I am afraid that I will not be able to take care of them when I am old. The book Orange is finished, but I still think about Orange in my heart. I hope everyone can meet their own Min Orange.
Wow wow wow, I still want to watch extras and watch variety shows on Orange
Oops, the last article almost made me cry. I finished another book. The one on metaphysics is updated every day. It's not enough.
Tears, let's live a happy life together, Orange
