Foreword
Nervous shuffling and a tense atmosphere choked the stage. A heavy silence blanketed the group of anxious audition participants. There were more than forty there and they all knew only fourteen could get in -- seven boys and seven girls.
The judges observed calmly, quietly for what seemed like an eternity. One of them, a handsome man called TOP leaned in closer to his microphone and opened his mouth.
--
Clutching the microphone for dear life, adrenaline pumped through her body. Her voice filled the room, displaying her raw talents.
Stage lights shone on her lone figure.
This song, her movements, she was performing for her life.
--
All eyes were on him watching each movement, listening to what he could do. Everything he did right then counted to this performance.
He had to show them all his skills, show them how much he worked for this.
This was the final audition, and he needed to show them his best.

"As you all know, we've reviewed all the tapes from each of your individual performances, seen how you've grown and what kinds of talents you possess. All of you have done your best and displayed great abilities. However, we can only take seven girls and seven boys."
Once again, the room held its breath.
"We've decided. To make it quick and easy... I'll give the names of those who have made it. For the girl's group, Kim MinHee, Han JaeRi, Yamato Luka, Kim YounHa, Choi MinHae, Kim JiHye and..."
Each girl whose name hadn't been called tensed expectantly.
"Kang JinAe."
Every girl deflated, most due to disappointment, the seven due to relief, bliss, and anticipation.
"For the boy's group, Park Jaebeom, Ok Taecyeon, Nichkhun Horvejkul, Jang Wooyoung, Hwang Changsung, Kim Junsu, and Lee Junho."
The boys looked at each other, wide, giddy grins spread across their faces.
"Thank you everyone for auditioning. Congratulations to you fourteen."
The other judges nodded in agreement and threw in their input.
"And best of wishes for the rest of you. You may leave."
The stage cleared and left only seven girls and seven boys.
"Pack your bags," TOP smiled. "You'll be leaving home for a while. We'll be expecting you in a few days," he gave them a mock salute. "You're dismissed."
