An Idol's Journey from Trainee to Group Member [Entertainment Industry]

[Currently revising the story and its setting. The wait will be a little long, and I'm very sorry. Current progress: 3/9]

One-line pitch: A record of a growth-type idol rising to center and debuting as part of a group.

.

"Could you tell me again the story of how you picked me out of a group of kids?"

.

On his first day in Kyoto, Cheng Feilu wanted to leave home. But he was only twelve, and figuring out how to support himself was a big problem.

.

Then, out of nowhere, a talent scout noticed him. As a trainee, he'd get a guaranteed base salary, could send less money home, and still stay on top of his studies. It was practically made for him.

.

He decided to join on the spot.

.

Years later, Cheng Feilu stood at the center of his debut group. He bowed with the others to thank everyone, then lifted his head with tears streaming down his face.

.

At first, all he wanted was a job. Who could have guessed he'd end up debuting as the group's center?

Emotional Blurb:

After his parents divorced and each started a new family, Cheng Feilu became the unwanted burden neither side wanted to take in.

.

He considered himself easygoing, but sometimes he still felt a little envious.

.

Then, at his first in-person concert, cheers rang throughout the venue. Little by little, he realized:

Love gives people substance and makes them whole. His fans were about to become a part of him.

.

He wasn't a child starved of love, because people came to him with all the affection and love in their hearts, and told him:

"Cheng Feilu, you're not a child nobody wants."

"You're wonderful, and we love you."

"You deserve to have what everyone else has."
