Alicia laughed and patted his shoulder. “It’s okay, I believe in you. Just pretend you’re acting when you get up there p>
If he wanted to clear his name, this was a necessary step.
Darren sighed, “Alright, I’ll try treating it like acting p>
The camera behind them captured their entire conversation, and viewers heard every word.
Comments flooded in. [Darren looks exactly like me when I’m dreading social interaction p>
[I noticed before that he’s been nervous this whole time and keeps listening to whatever Alicia says p>
[I think he’s an introvert p>
[He’s handsome but always has this serious expression that makes him look kind of intimidating, but now seeing him all scared and nervous is actually kind of cute. Is there something wrong with me p>
[Girl, I’m the same way p>
The production team played through the five MV tracks they had prepared but hadn’t used yet.
After watching all of them, the guests could see that two were simple, two were moderately difficult, and one was extremely challenging.
The guests didn’t show what they were thinking, but several of them were definitely hoping they wouldn’t get stuck with the hardest one.
Felicity, on the other hand, was hoping for exactly that one. ‘The hardest track would give me the best chance to stand out, she thought.
The trainees started chanting, “Number three, number three p>
Number three was the hardest one.
The live chat exploded with the same thing: [Number three p>
Of course, everyone wanted to see the hardest one because that would be the most exciting and interesting to watch. They were all there for the drama anyway.
Then Chase invited Marley up to the stage. “You pick,” he said.
Marley smiled and said, “Alright, let’s see how lucky I am.” He walked over and tapped one of the keys.
The tracks that had been rotating and jumping around on the screen started to slow down, and finally stopped on the third track.
When the result appeared, the trainees couldn’t hold back their shock and gasped, “Whoa, it’s actually the hardest one p>
“This is gonna be wild p>

Marley looked stunned for a second, but then he smiled at the guests and said, “Looks like my good. I picked the best one for you guys p>
luck’s
pretty
The guests thought, ‘Yeah, thanks so much for that p>
They all suspected the whole thing was rigged and that Chase and Marley had set this up on purpose.
But since the track had already been chosen, they had no choice but to accept it.
Nicolas spoke up and asked, “No problem, but where are we going to practice p>
They couldn’t just have everyone learn together in this crowded space.
Chase and Marley had already worked this out.
“We’re going to give each group their own practice room,” Marley explained. “You’ll go in there to learn, and your team’s trainees will come with you to watch p>
“But we won’t be livestreaming what happens during that hour,” Chase added. “Instead, we’ll record everything without any cuts, and after today’s livestream ends, we’ll upload it to both shows‘ official websites as bonus content.
“During that hour, the livestream will be temporarily shut down so the audience can take a break too p>
Not livestreaming the guests‘ practice sessions would hook the viewers curiosity and keep them interested.
Making them wait to see the results would build anticipation and leave them wanting more.
Plus, with a live variety show, the audience couldn’t realistically watch all day without a break anyway.
The guests and trainees had no objections.
The viewers, though, really wanted to watch the practice sessions live, so they flooded the comments section, roasting Chase and Marley for being cruel.
The show had no shortage of practice rooms, so they quickly assigned one to each group.
Then the livestream shut off.
And just like that, the audience was left hanging and dying to know what would happen next.
