A sea of school uniforms pour out a nearby high school and litter the streets of Seoul. The sound of laughter and cellphones ringing penetrate through the deep seeded focus planted by Rap Monster from up above. His body trembles lightly while his red converse teeter on the ledge of the rooftop. His eyes focused on a sheet of paper in his hands, he ignores the commotion from down below.
His eyes scan the sheet from top to bottom. He observes the letter grade which reads "A+" on the top right hand corner of the test paper. Fingertips glide across and mirror each other from opposite ends just before he pulls them apart splitting it in half. The repeated action breaks apart the paper into several tiny pieces which lay dormant in his clutched fists.
A light sigh escapes his body while his head raises upward to face the brightly lit sky. He raises his hands and then opens them allowing the oncoming gust of wind to blow the several tiny pieces of paper out of his hands and all around as if they were snowflakes descending down onto those beneath his feet. The students begin to curiously look around until their sights fall on him up above on the ledge of the roof.
They begin to scream and point as the papers float about throughout the sky. Rap Monster spreads his arms out, extending each one as far as possible, out to the left and right. His jet black hair gently blows in the breeze and he smiles. He motions all of his weight forward and his entire body slowly makes its way off the ledge.
His body like an anchor is weighed down by gravity. It cuts through the sky and his eyelids flutter as he nears closer and closer to the pavement. The screams grow louder and the anonymous faces become more recognizable as his body comes crashing down faster, and faster and just as he is about to come in contact with the ground...
Supreme boi: "Yah! You're drooling on me! Wake up!"
Rap Monster: "aish!!!"
He pushes Rap Monster's head off of his shoulder, startling him and waking him up from his day-dream. He looks around and jumps back in his seat as he watches Supreme boi get up from his seat.
Supreme boi: "this is our stop, come on! We're already late!"
Rap Monster: "oh damn!"
He kicks his feet up and the two run to the front and then off of the bus. Both still garbed in school uniforms they playfully shove each other back and forth as they make their way down the street.
Supreme boi: "so are we gonna' tell the others where we just came from?"
Rap Monster: "are you crazy man?! We would never hear the end of it."
Supreme boi: "ha! You're right. But they're gonna' find out anyway once we debut."
Rap Monster: "that's IF we even get the chance to. The way they were looking at us... Like if we were trash, I doubt we'll ever hear from them again. I don't even know why we auditioned in the first place, who the hell wants to be an idol anyway?"
Supreme boi: "I don't know, it just seemed like a good idea at the time."
Rap Monster: "let's just leave the thinking to me."
Supreme boi laughs sarcastically shoving Rap Monster once again. They continue walking until they reach their destination, which is a rather beat down looking apartment building. They step inside and passed the elevator, a "not in service" sign taped to the two large metallic doors. Upon walking up a few flight of stairs they walk down the hallway the already dim lights flickering on and off. They reach the apartment and step through the already slightly opened door.
Rap Monster: "one day someone is going to walk in here and rob you man."
Marvel J: "yeah, and take allllllll of this."
His arm extends across the nearly bare apartment. A sofa and several bean bag chairs are just placed haphazardly throughout the candle lit apartment. Rap Monster steps inside fully and the two engage in a rather intricate handshake. Supreme boi mimics the handshake as Rap Monster makes the rounds greeting all the other members of Dae-Nam-Hyup before throwing his book bag onto the ground and then plopping himself onto an empty bean bag.
Samsun: "where the hell were you guys?"
Supreme boi: "uh..."
Rap Monster: "we fell asleep on the bus. Exams kicked our asses today."
Marvel J: "once Kidoh steps out the booth, you go in next. We've been tryna' lay down this track but it's missing something. We were waiting for Hunchul but he's running late too."
Rap Monster: "who needs Hunchul? I'm here. Let's go man!"
Marvel J and Rap Monster step inside his bedroom which he completely renovated and turned into a makeshift sudio. The only thing of value, a large sound system which takes up majority of the rooms space. He closes the door behind the two. Rap Monster shoots a peace sign to Kidoh who is in the booth ready to recite his lyrics. i11evn mans the control station, Marvel signals for him to start the track.
As it plays, Rap Monster and Marvel J bop their heads to the beat. Kidoh reaches for a note pad and begins to "spit his rhymes". A hard knocking on the door breaks his concentration and everyone in the room looks to the door. Supreme boi pokes his head into the room and looks at RapMon. His brows raise as Supreme boi shakes his head in disappointment before stepping back out and closing the door behind him.
Marvel J: "what the hell was that about?"
Rap Monster: "no clue."
Marvel J signals i11evn once again and the track starts from the beginning. The head bopping as if on cue starts again as Kidoh then starts over. Rap Monsters cell phone rings loudly from in his pocket disrupting the flow of things once again. They all angrily look at him, Marvel J points to the door. Rap Monster chuckles nervously before stepping out of the room and answering his phone.
Secretary: "hello, is this Kim Namjoon?"
Rap Monster: "yes this is."
Secretary: "hi, I'm calling on behalf of BigHit Entertainment-"
