"Alright girls, before we get to the filming location I just have to let you know some info that the label wanted me to tell you," Sihyun said as he drove Enchanted to the shooting location.

"What?" Ellie asked, all their interests piqued.

"It seems that administration wasn't too thrilled about your on-stage personas, they want you to change them."

The girls fell silent.

"Ellie-ah, I want you to just imagine as if it's just you and the girls. I know you can talk and a lot at that so pretend as if the cameras and staff isn't there. Sara-ah, you did fine and you're controlling yourself well so keep that up. Ana-ah, they like how you're acting just not how often. Speak up more. And Kyojin-ah you just need to speak more. Just follow your unnie's and give your input for things."

"Nothing we've been on has aired yet, how exactly do they know how we act?" Sara questioned.

"Many times some of the higher ups - the ones you usually don't see - will blend in with the television staff and watch your progress in person. They were at the recording the other day and said they weren't too thrilled."

"I mean.. we can't be mad about their thoughts I guess," Ellie shrugged. The others had to admit that they weren't too keen on jumping out of their comfort zone with speaking but, their jobs were on the line.

The girls remind silent for the rest of the car ride and makeup.

CAMERA ON

"Together with MBLAQ, Idol Army's She's Coming!"

"'Her'? Is it 'her'?" Mir asked, excitedly.

"It's them, them!" an MC corrected.

"There's few members, most of them are tall, and they're new to the idol scene!" Shin Bong Sun smiled, "Is everybody ready for the charm appeal?"

"YES!" the MBLAQ members and Jung Joori yelled.

"Please come out~" Bong Sun ended in a weird tone.

When the girls took their que to walk into the cameras line of sight the room erupted into cheers.

Except for Joon.

Who was laughing.

On the floor.

"Enchanted!" the MC continued on.

The girls proceeded to do a mock performance of their current song Alone; to the cheers of most of the MBLAQ members.

"Hello, we are Enchanted," the group greeted.

"Hello, we are MBLAQ," the boys greeted back.

"We look pitiful," Seungho joked.

"You should have warned us before," G.O. glowered towards Bong Sun, who just shook it off. Wasn't the first time the vocalist gave her that look and surely it wouldn't be the last.

"Joon-ah why are you laughing?" the short-haired woman questioned.

It took said man a few seconds to try and stifle his 'manly' giggles before answering, "Ah you see, I'm actually friends with one of the members and... it's just weird seeing her like this."

"Oh?" His words piqued everyone's interest immediately - including the girls own members.

"Miyoungie."

Enchanted meet him with questioning stares.

"Who's that?" Sara asked.

The rooms occupants bust out into laughter at the thought of someone not knowing the name of their own member.

"You don't know your own members names?" Mir asked, exasperated.

"Miyoung is my Korean name," Ana spoke up, her face tinged pink in embarrassment.

"We all call each other by our foreign names," Ellie explained.

"How do you two know each other?" Joori asked, giving Joon a certain look to everyone's amusement.

"We both have the same major, so we used to bump into each other often," Joon explained, barely stifling his mirth.

"I decided to start up a conversation with him and the rest is history," Ana added on.

"Are you two..?" Mir asked directly, shamelessly pointing between the two.

Joon and Ana immediately burst into laughter at the suggestion.

"Wait, you're old enough to be in College?" G.O questioned with an amused expression, the girl did look like she was still in high school.

"The grades are different overseas, so I'm ahead in Korea," Ana explained, poking at her lips fighting back the habit of picking at them.

Everyone 'ah'ed in understanding before Bongsun asked, "So it would be a bit weird if I asked MBLAQ your ideal type in Enchanted?"

Joon fixed her with a strong look, which made the MC laugh instead of afraid.

"Instead I will ask Enchanted," Bongsun smiled, "who in MBLAQ is their ideal type? From oldest to youngest!"

Ellie hesitated. "I don't really have an ideal type, I just like someone whose nice to me."

"Are you saying we're mean?!" Mir gaped. The girls laughed.

"I need to get to know someone before I can decide if I like them."

"You know, most idols just make something up," the main MC said in a whisper-tone, causing laughter.

"Someone manly looking, like Joon-ssi," Sara smiled.

Joon sent her an exaggerated wink, which the girl unexpectedly returned.

"Wow!" the MBLAQ boys jumped back in shock at her action. Enchanted simply chuckled at their reactions, used to Saras un-subtle personality by now.

"My ideal type is someone like," Ana's ears turned red before she even uttered a name, "Seungho-ssi."

Seungho smiled and thanked the dancer.

"Thunder-ssi," Kyojin simply said with a straight face, not wishing to say anymore.

"I like how simple her answer is," Joori laughed.

"To make things smoother, we'll go right into Dance Time!" Bongsun said in a typical MC voice.

Thunder was first and began his dance with a serious look, which caused everyone to expect something interesting from him. Well, he gave interesting just not what people wanted.

"Dum da dee dum da dee dum~" Thunder 'sang' with awkward movements, never looking at anyone not even the camera. As the song progressed his attempt at making eye contact also grew, but instead of the members swooning they all burst into laughter or awkwardly looked away feeling second-hand embarrassment. His stage even caused his own members to fall to the floor with laughter; although with MBLAQ that is to be expected.

Afterwards Mir moved to center stage, aggressively ripping off his black cloak at the beginning of the music. He ended up using moves that looked like they belonged in a bad 80's music video. G.O even joined him in the background with Thunder literally coming up next to him, repeating the same moves in almost perfect sync.

To everyone's surprise, at Seungho's turn he came out with a guitar. The vocalist sat on an uncomfortable plastic chair, guitar in his arms as he sung to the clapping of those on set.

Finally, G.O. took the main spot only to reveal a horrible Elvis Presley impersonation outfit. Everyone happily cheered and laughed at the main vocalists performance to Elvis Presley's Hou

Chapter 57: Wow...2 years of this story? Doesn't feel like it~
Although it wasn't the desired ending I liked it! <3
My favourite parts would probably be when the girls sneaked out to the club and the whole Khione and L interaction and the learning about Korea variety show that they had!
I loved how you didn't just automatically make them super popular since debut and gave them a huge luxury dorm from the start like most apply fics. No, you gave them hardships and scandals which were realistic and I loved it!
If the story were longer, I would have loved to see all Enchanted's interaction with fans and their love interests.
I LOOK FORWARD TO YOUR FUTURE APPLYFICS!

Chapter 46: Wow, this must have been hard for you. I honestly also feel conflicted since I actually grew attached to Enchanted, but at the same time I've also been getting the vibe that you don't know what to do. It's understandable that most of you motivation has been lost, so I'm not angry don't worry :D
But, I've always felt this way about everything: If you lost motivation, or you truly don't feel anything then either put it aside, or work on something even better!
I'm not telling you to just quit this, but I'm saying if you feel that you have better and bigger ideas for something else- go through with it!
Maybe you can put this aside and work on it when you do get inspired- or maybe even include the Enchanted girls in some of your other apply fics? I don't know.
But if you keep writing with having one foot in and one foot out, it's a loose loose situation for the readers and you.
Maybe I'll apply for your other apply fics too! Because I would love to.

Chapter 45: The girls seem *sooo* much happier now. I'm so glad :D And I'm so curious about their comeback! You always pick the best songs, so I'm sure this one'll be just as awesome!

I love Kyojin's "you would fail" to Ana in the photography room too omg

And hopefully after seeing this everyone won't think IM is so bad anymore! I mean from the building (which I still love omg) to the closeness of the artists and staff, I think it'd be pretty hard to deny that IM is a great company.

Chapter 45: Aww the girls were so cute when they were showing off the building~
Psh- the trainees should've waved at the camera! C'MON DUDED YA'LL ARE GONNA BE IDOLS ONE DAY lol
Still looking forward for their comeback song <3 Seriously, I'm really curious!
And I hope that after seeing the amazing building people will feel that IM isn't bad cuz it's obvious that they have a lot of money and stuff! PLUS I MEAN they call their boss unnie so hopefully people take that in and think that the place is awesome!

Chapter 42: I've been forgetting to read omg

First off, I'm so glad their newest single is Loving U! It's definitely one of my favorite all time favorite Sistar songs.

Also, I don't know how to explain it but I think I'm in love with the IM building??? It's soooo cool and modern and.... Just wow. And the company is so chill, like. It must be so weird (but awesome) going from a place like SM to *actually* being able to relax.

And SIHYUN!! I was so worried when they switched over to IM though like.... How could the story be the same without him? Sihyun is love. Sihyun is life.

Chapter 42: Personally i think that IM is wayyyy better than SM! I mean wow! The contract is amazing and they get freedom! How amazing is that??? It's probably the best company ever! So sweet <3
I guess I understand why they feel like trash, but I honestly believe that this is best for them! AND YAY SIHYUN IS BACK!!! I missed him~
I'm looking forward for the comeback! Wonder what it is this time.....

Chapter 41: WOAH- the new dorm is amazing! Great upgrade for the girls *thumbs up*
AND IS ALLISON'S ULZZANG KIM SEUKHYE? CUZ I LOVE HER! If it isn't then damn she looks like her!
Now where the hell is Sihyun? The dude needs to come back!
Speaking of comeback's, I wonder when Enchanted will have theirs....although they do deserve a break.
