11: The first day at YG was skipping classes

She didn't know in her previous life; at that time, she felt Berkeley was the most amazing, but Berkeley was about getting a diploma to find a job, while Juilliard was about jobs coming to find you at school.

As soon as she enrolled, many famous agencies came to sign her. At least, the Peninsula was only a two-hour flight home, but this place was really far, she couldn't stand it.

The five of them chatted and laughed as they arrived at the cafeteria. This was too strict, wasn't it? There were staff members watching them even while they ate. Was this really necessary?

"We weren't used to it when we first came, but you'll get used to it," Kim Jennie said, patting her shoulder.

Shrugging, she walked to the food area. It was all vegetarian, absolutely no meat. She kept looking around for meat dishes.

The trainees at the tables looked at her. Her looks immediately showed she was beyond their competition. Artists, to put it plainly, are about attracting attention to monetize it.

With that face, just standing there made her a beautiful sight. They felt the pressure.

After searching for a while and finding no meat dishes, she dejectedly returned to sit by the other four, sighing.

"Hurry and eat, we still have to practice!" Park Chaeyoung quietly reminded her. Many people around were watching them, and she was still a bit unaccustomed to it.

"Chaeyoung, you only eat this much. Can your body handle it?"

"You get used to being hungry. When I first came, I often woke up hungry in the middle of the night. I still have two braised chicken drumsticks under my pillow; I'll share one with you later."

Lisa looked at her in shock, "Aren't you afraid of getting caught?"

"Shh! Why are you so loud?"

"Then I want one too, otherwise I'll report you. Hmph~"

"Alright, alright, the five of us will share, okay? Hurry up and finish eating, then we'll run."

"That's more like it!"

"You just said you didn't want to eat meat, so why are you fighting for it now?"

"When you're hungry, you chew a couple of bites to taste it, then spit it out. Then you can get a good night's sleep, otherwise you can't sleep."

"Uh???"

Even she, a ten-year veteran trainee, didn't know about this. Are these people really not afraid their bodies can't take it? Suddenly, she felt like she didn't really understand the trainee circle anymore.

After eating, the four of them led Xu Zhiyou to the public practice room. Kim Jennie patted her shoulder and said,

"Group F is here. We're in the debut group. If anyone bullies you, just tell them my name. We're leaving now."

"What the heck! Isn't she also in the debut group?"

She only thought for a moment, and the four of them turned a corner and disappeared. "Oh my god! There are so many rooms here, which one is the debut group's?"

She searched for a while but couldn't find it. What's the point of looking? She was just curious to see. She signed an artist contract, so strictly speaking, she was an artist. Being a trainee was just a transitional period for her.

"Going back to the dorm to sleep," she said, then vanished.

By the time the four of them returned, Xu Zhiyou was already dreaming. The four of them saw her sleeping so soundly and looked at each other.

"Unnie, isn't it three in the morning right now?" Kim Jennie asked, a little unsure.

Kim Ji-soo thought they might have misread the time, raised her hand to look, and nodded blankly.

"How is she already asleep? Could it be that she didn't go?"

"Possibly!" Park Chaeyoung suddenly remembered her actions today. This girl would definitely do something like that.

Is she trying to get fired on the first day? She quickly shook her awake. Xu Zhiyou saw that it was the four of them.

"You're back. Go wash up and sleep! I'm so sleepy." She said and lay back down.

Park Chaeyoung saw her getting drowsy again, so she shook her hard, her hair all over her face.

"Chaeyoung! What are you doing? Not sleeping late at night will kill someone!"

"Don't sleep yet. Did you not go to practice today?"

"Yeah! I couldn't find it, so I came back. What's wrong?"

"What's wrong with you? Are you trying to get fired on the first day? Is this bed unlucky or something? No one who sleeps here stays."

"I'm in the debut group, and you left me at the entrance of Group F. I couldn't find you, so I came back first."

"Then why didn't you say so earlier?" Kim Jennie really had a headache; she didn't reveal any important information.

"I'm a special recruit, no assessment needed. Don't worry! The trainee system can't control me. Hurry up and sleep."

While the four of them were stunned, she did a somersault, precisely rolling into bed, and started dreaming.

Watching her lie down again, they slowly processed what she said: special recruit, the trainee system can't control her. How come they had never heard of the company having such a system before?

Could she have made it up just to sleep? Seeing her, she really didn't seem to care! How strange.

"Let's sleep first! We'll ask her when she wakes up tomorrow?"

Kim Ji-soo was also getting tired. The main person wasn't worried, so why should they be? The next day at 5:30, she was shaken awake again.

It was Park Chaeyoung again. "What's wrong, Chaeyoung? Aren't you sleeping yet?"

"We have to go to practice now, and you're still sleeping. Hurry up, you won't get lost this time."

She pulled out her phone from under her pillow, checked the time, and looked at her speechlessly.

"Chaeyoung! It's only 5:30. Are you serious? You guys only came back in the early hours of the morning last night. Aren't you tired?"

"You'll get used to it! And you're still hiding your phone. Didn't you turn it in yesterday?"

It was that answer again. This was truly a nightmare. She decided she would go find Yang Hyun-suk later and tell him she wanted to debut. She couldn't take it anymore.

They were doing it for her own good, so she couldn't get angry. She quietly lay back down.

"Hey, hey, hey, stop pulling! I'm getting up, I'm getting up now. Don't ruin my beloved clothes."

"You're still sleeping? The three of them have finished washing up, we can go."

She flipped over, got up, folded her quilt in a few quick motions, grabbed her toothbrush and towel, and went to the public washroom. Trainees had these conditions; dreaming of an en-suite bathroom was just that, a dream.

Park Chaeyoung, with foam in her mouth, asked, "Why didn't you turn in your phone? Getting caught is very serious."

"Speak louder, or spit out the foam in your mouth before speaking. I can't hear you clearly."

Park Chaeyoung was truly fed up with her. Could she really say something like that loudly? She simply shut her mouth.

After washing up, Kim Ji-soo and the other three were already waiting. "Almost ready!"

This was so embarrassing, making the four of them wait for her. It was lucky they had good tempers; someone else might have started yelling.

She got dressed in a few quick movements, pulled a hair tie from her pocket, and tied up her hair. "Let's go!"

"Aren't you going to put on some skincare?"

"No need, I never use that stuff."

"Then why is your skin so good?" Kim Jennie came over and pinched it. It felt really, really good.

"It's a gift from God; it's been like this since I was little."

"Uh?" Never mind. Even though she had only been here for a day, she had a clear understanding of her easygoing nature.

On the way to the practice room, Park Chaeyoung remembered the special recruit from last night.

"You said you were a special recruit, what's that? I've been with the company for three years and have never heard of it. Not just me, even Jennie-oni, who's been here the longest, hasn't heard of it."

"My university major is..."

"University, did you get into university?"

Park Chaeyoung was the same age as her, eighteen, and was also taking university entrance exams this year. But she had already given up on the college entrance exam, and to be honest, it was impossible not to regret it.

After all, her grades weren't bad, and the words 'university' were a sensitive topic for her right now.

Xu Zhiyou really wanted to hit her. Sister, please let me finish speaking before you interrupt! It's really uncomfortable for me to be left hanging like this, okay?
