After Transmigrating Into a Male Idol Talent Show

Chapter 89

In the midst of Infinite Youth, there were only two foreign trainees. However, Kim Youen, who held South Korean nationality, grew up in Beijing. Even his accent was authentically Beijing dialect, so much so that the other trainees often forgot that he was actually a foreigner.

So, Toeisup was the only one who couldn't quite understand what the instructors were saying and needed the assistance of staff members to translate for him. This made his journey during recordings much more challenging. While other trainees struggled with singing and dancing, language barriers posed a greater issue for Toeisup.

Although the other trainees treated him well, Toeisup often felt a sense of frustration, feeling like he couldn't fully integrate. He made efforts to learn Chinese, but besides training, he had limited time, and Chinese was exceptionally difficult for him. Without any language talent, Toeisup's progress was slow.

During the time when he was grouped with Qin Lu, it helped him a lot. At least, he could understand common daily phrases.

Toeisup had the typical appearance of a mixed-race person—porcelain-white skin, delicate features, and beautiful light brown eyes. Coupled with his young age and naturally curly light-colored hair, the other trainees saw him as a younger brother.

Not hearing his name, Toeisup sat quietly in the waiting area, realizing that he had failed to advance.

In truth, Toeisup wasn't too surprised by this result. He had barely made it through the last round, and this time, with nine eliminations, the competition was much fiercer, especially towards the end.

Toeisup understood that he still had many shortcomings in his skills, and the path to debut was still far off. Rather than regretting not being able to debut, he lifted his head, looking at his teammates who had become familiar sitting atop the pyramid seats.

His gaze landed on Qin Lu, who was pursing his lips, Fan Xi, whose smile halted on his face, and Liao Junchen, who initially seemed strict but was actually very kind.

Not being able to debut was okay. He could come back next year, but he wouldn't have the chance to debut with Qin Lu and the others.

As the final moments in the training base approached, he couldn't accompany his teammates until the end.

Thinking of this, a somewhat bewildered expression appeared on Toeisup's face, tinged with a hint of sadness.

With all the rankings announced, Producer Cui Zhihao bowed with all the advancing trainees towards the camera, marking the end of this recording session.

After the cameras were put away, the trainees descended from the pyramid seats and approached their eliminated teammates.

The eliminated trainees didn't want to transfer their pressure to the advancing friends. But when they pretended to smile as if nothing had happened, it only felt like a heavy stone weighed on their hearts.

"It's okay, I should have left long ago based on my skills. But when I go back, I can still vote for you guys. Then, I'll be a viewer-producer, haha! Shouldn't you guys say some nice things to me quickly, huh?"

"I can catch up on the show when I get home. Let me tell you guys, I've already become famous up to this point. Will I be recognized on the street and asked for autographs? Just thinking about it makes me excited!"

The trainees who were about to leave tried their best to comfort their advancing friends, while the advancing trainees didn't look good. They forced themselves to smile and play around, pretending not to see the regret in each other's eyes.

Toeisup was the only one who seemed a bit out of place, a young trainee who couldn't speak the language, until the very end of the recording, he still couldn't understand what his teammates were saying.
