When euiwoong saw that he was in the twenty-third place, he could not help but feel a wave of disappointment hit him. Am i not good enough to be part of that pyramid? did i not show enough of myself? was i not outstanding enough?
His trains of thoughts were interrupted when he was made to give his last statement. As expected, the reality hits you hard. who cares if you are only 17 right? He forces a smile out of himself and announced his resolution, that he will make sure to be better than those in the pyramid.

Turning to the side, he stares out at the window and thinks about how all five boys were nervous and all anticipating, that perhaps, the instructors would like them, because they had great expressions while dancing and were cute. Back when we thought being an idol was that simple... and now, we all learn that it is a man-eat-man world. for you to rise, the other has to fall. what a great thing to learn at 17. Euiwoong bitterly scoffs. When he had reached the dorms, it was empty and euiwoong wonders if the others knew that he was eliminated. He walks i
