There are 4 types of trainees in S.M, and the A-level trainees are all trainees who are ready to make their debut, and they can already appear in CF and MV shooting at this time, and they are also forever under the contract of an artist.

B-level trainees are trainees who are strong, but not qualified enough for their debut; The C rank is the middle and lower class trainees, and they are all people who have been in the company for no more than 2 years, while the D rank is a newcomer like Lee Seung-hyun who has just entered the company.

Lee Seung-hyun, who came to the assessment place, saw so many trainees in the company for the first time, no matter which aspect they were, they were only better than him, he took a deep breath, as if he had returned to the time when he took the exam.

"Don't be so nervous, I guess this assessment is just a passing scene, to see if those who are scheduled to debut are lazy......" Jung Jae-jung looked at Lee Seung-hyun who was taking a deep breath and said,

"Got it, Brother Zaizheng!" Jung Jae-jung in front of him is not only SJ's agent, but also the person who discovered Lee Seung-hyun, who was shopping with his roommate in Myeongdong that day, passing by a piano shop and accidentally playing a song, which caught his attention.

Because Jung Jae-jung also wanted to know Lee Seung-hyun's recent practice results, he did not leave in a hurry, but took Lee Seung-hyun to sit in the corner and watch the old trainees in front of him for assessment.

I found a corner and sat down, watching the people whose names were called to perform, but obviously they were not mature enough, and they were still very young in their singing skills and dance movements, unlike SJ and them, who were full of dynamics.

"The next group starts, Jung so-yeon, Kim Hyo-yeon, Kwon Yu-ri, Choi so-young, and Lim Yoon-a prepare!" This time, the reporter reported the names of five people at a time, and he didn't know anything about the good things he cared about these names. But Zheng Jae-jung explained it to him.

"I heard from the director that those girls are the preparatory members of the girl group prepared by the company, and there should be a few more." Zheng Jae-jung pointed to the people who had just read their names, and by the way, he also commented on their practice time.

After bowing and greeting each other, one of the short girls said, "Teacher Director, we are performing a group dance this time, and we all choreographed it together. ”

"Not bad! Brother Zaizheng, their strength is good. This is Lee Seung-hyun's evaluation of their performances, whether it is the formation or their dance moves, they are very good, but they have a little less stage experience and are a little green, Lee Seung-hyun feels that there is nothing to be picky about in other aspects, and I think it will be good to evaluate. He was even a little nervous, he wasn't very confident in his dance.

"Of course, otherwise, how would the company have chosen them?" Zheng Jae-jung had a natural expression.

"Not bad! Keep up the good work. Lee so-man, who was sitting in the audience, nodded and gave a very good evaluation, this is the founder of this company, Lee Seung-hyun looked at the middle-aged man in front of him, thinking that when he first met him, he didn't know anything. When Lee Seung-hyun first came in to practice, he met him once, and he felt very kind.

Although it was only a few words, it made the trainees around him envious, and several little girls were also excited. Being praised by the president like this is an affirmation for them, and their hopes of debut will increase a few points. Naturally, it aroused a burst of envy and jealousy from the trainees below.

"Seung-hyun, it's your turn." Just when Lee Seung-hyun was waiting nervously and boredly, Jung Jae-jung pushed Lee Seung-hyun, who was still in the fugue.

Lee Seung-hyun was pushed by him like this, and suddenly came back to his senses, and when he saw Lee Seung-hyun staying with his agent in the corner, most of the trainees began to guess his identity. Everyone set their eyes on this young man in a white shirt, jeans, and sneakers, and the natural first impression was that he was handsome, and Lee Seung-hyun seemed to see their gaze at him, smiling and returning the salute.

Lee Seung-hyun, who was standing in the field, bowed and greeted him with Korean etiquette seriously, and Lee so-man had a smile on his face, and he still recognized Lee Seung-hyun's appearance.

"Lee Seung-hyun, I've been practicing very seriously lately, and I haven't fallen behind in my studies at school, right?" Lee so-man just glanced at it, and they knew Lee Seung-hyun's information very well.

"Ready? Then start your show! ”

Lee Seung-hyun can be regarded as having a wide range of interests, thanks to the influence of his family, the only thing he didn't expect was that he would run away to be a star one day, but fortunately he was not in China, in such a short period of time, his mind turned 108,000 miles.

"Sika, is that person a trainee in our company? How come you've never seen it? In the group of 5 girls just now, a girl who looked very straightforward said to a girl next to her.

"If you haven't seen it, you haven't seen it, you've been practicing in the company for so long, if you do, you'll definitely see it." A tall girl was quick to answer.

"Hyo-yeon! Look good, that guy is going to start performing. After speaking, he turned his gaze to Lee Seung-hyun in the field again.

Lee Seung-hyun knows what his shortcomings are, he chose a dance by TVXQ, the company's predecessor, both in work and expression, Lee so-man looked at Lee Seung-hyun in the field, he knew how much sweat Lee Seung-hyun had paid. When the music stopped, a little bead of sweat oozed from Lee Seung-hyun's sideburns.

"It's rare that Lee Seung-hyun has made great progress in both expressiveness and dance coordination." Lee so-man is quite satisfied with Lee Seung-hyun's performance, he values Lee Seung-hyun's singing skills and voice, and he originally wanted to add another person to SJ. Originally, Lee Seung-hyun was that substitute.

Seeing Lee Seung-hyun who was parked in the field, Lee Xiuman was very satisfied with his performance, and it could be seen that Lee Seung-hyun had worked very hard during this time, and he felt that it was okay to make such an evaluation.

"Recently, you will follow Jung Jae-jung and arrange to practice with them in SJ's practice room." didn't wait for Lee Seung-hyun to leave, Lee so-man gave such a result. The trainees in the audience immediately discussed, but many people were a little unwilling, whether it was dancing or singing, they were also first-class, but they gave the opportunity to such a newcomer.

"Me?" Lee Seung-hyun glanced at Jung Jae-jung who was sitting next to him, and the other party smiled and nodded.

There was a small girl in the crowd, it was the girl Lee Seung-hyun bumped into last time - Kim Tae-yeon, Lee Seung-hyun went to the Han River Bridge several times to try his luck to see if he could meet her, but he never saw her.

At this time, Kim Taeyeon had already passed the assessment, and she also recognized Lee Seung-hyun as the person who hit her that day, but she didn't expect that the other party was also a trainee of her own company. I just watched his dance, and Kim Hyo-yeon, who practiced by himself, was better than him. But he was about to make his debut, and she sighed when she thought of this.

"Liar!!"

"Ernie, what did you say?" A girl next to her, who looked like a model student, asked.

"It's nothing, Xiaoxian, you heard me wrong." Kim Taeyeon was a little flustered, and she hurriedly diverted the topic.

Zheng Jae-jung was called over by Lee Xiuman, as if he had explained something to him, and then pulled Lee Seung-hyun out, Lee Seung-hyun was a little inexplicable, his eyes also swept around the group of trainees who envied him, and his sight was attracted by a familiar figure.

"So she's ・・・・・・・・・ here, too"
