Episode 48
After the screening ended, fan reviews flooded across every social media platform.
Of course, given the spoiler prevention agreements everyone had signed, direct mentions were off-limits. Yet despite that constraint, the reviews from Yu Seongwoo’s team were bound to ignite people’s curiosity.
[Braces Team Stage]
So the kids in Suits were playing baduk and then we heard the janggu drum, and they put on traditional hats and danced—hip-hop but with Samulnori? They did stuff like that. And Braces Main Dancer Producing member confirmed, congratulations!!
-???
-What are they even talking about, did they dream it?
-Wait, so they get to tease people who couldn’t go to the screening like this?
└They’re just making stuff up;;
-No, everyone’s mad, but the original poster must feel so unfair? That post is exactly what happened though ㅇㅇ
-It’s way too much bait lol, lots of people fishing with spoilers anyway, so just filter it out?
Sujeong, tasting the bitterness of failing to get into the screening, buried her head in her hands as she read the spoilers.
“This is ridiculous, how am I supposed to live knowing I missed this?”
[But now]
Doesn’t Braces have to change their name now anyway? lol they took it off
-??Took off the braces? Why?
-The agency is crazy, braces was literally his charm, if they made him take them off
-I was there in person and honestly no regrets lol you’ll see when it airs, he’s just—insanely handsome
-It’s such a shame to lose a real braces idol ㅠㅠ
“What? He took off his braces?”
[I’m calling it]
Yu Seongwoo’s definitely debuting this time, coming back as a Main Dancer
-Everyone’s saying weird stuff today
-Even if Ttukdtagi got reborn, he’d still be Ttukdtagi, what are they going on about
-Does the broadcast air next week? Everyone needs to watch but I’m dying to know;; Seongwoo really came back as a totally different person?
-Main Dancer’s maybe an exaggeration, but fans have reason to get hyped ㅇㅇ
[Whose stage was best?]
Mine was the Braces team and Ju-han’s team lol the Braces team’s concept was totally unexpected and the arrangement was so refined ㅇㅇ and I was shocked at how good the choreography was, but apparently Go Jaeseong created it himself;; I was most surprised by that. And Ju-han’s team, well they’re so talented anyway so I watched expecting the best, but Ju-han was definitely the best… Yu-rate did well too but Ju-han just overshadowed everyone
-Yeah, everyone was talking about these two teams lol
-How come nobody mentions Sang-yoon’s team ㅠㅠ
└It was kind of underwhelming ㅠㅠ Henry’s skill level is just too far above the other members
Caught between lies and truth in the reviews, Sujeong’s mind grew hazy.
But that night.
A fancam that Yu Seongwoo’s mom, Baek Gayun, had filmed at all costs was uploaded. Sujeong’s timeline caught fire.
WhoAreYou @Mysteriousboy 1 minute ago
Dance Break Center Seongwoo (moved to tears)
#BoysCode #YuSeongwoo #CHASE
(Video)
The video was barely twelve seconds long.
A shaky screen and cheers that seemed ready to rip through the speaker.
And there was Yu Seongwoo, dressed in a black Suit.
-???
-What is this?
-Yo, isn’t this a fancam?
-How did the broadcasting station miss this?
In the video, Yu Seongwoo was executing a Dance Break section.
The tails of his Dopo billowed, and to the beat, he spun his body in a wide arc.
Even in that fleeting moment, the eye couldn’t look away.
-???
-Wait a second
-Hold on
-Is that actually Yu Seongwoo?
-That’s not AI-generated?
The view count climbed instantly.
100,000.
200,000.
300,000.
-Is it edited?
-So he’s got braces on?
-Wait, wasn’t this guy the one who can’t dance?
—Someone explain what’s happening
The video was short.
But it was enough to shock.
—No but seriously, he’s gotten so much better
—It’s not just that his skills improved?
—A person changes that much in two weeks?
—Anyone watching would think he was already a dancer
—So that’s why the screening attendees said he became the main dancer?
—No the main dancer thing is overkill though
In the end, the video was deleted thirty minutes after upload.
[This media is unavailable due to action taken in response to a copyright report.]
But by then, someone had already saved it, someone else had reuploaded it, and someone had made a gif out of it.
[Did you manage to download it before it got deleted?]
No I literally just kept looping it and forgot to save lol someone save a life and share the video with me ㅠㅠ
—ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
—Once it hits the internet it’s over
—The network’s really working hard at this
—But it’s already spread everywhere lolol
—Some video accounts are gonna upload it risking their accounts so hurry up and save it
Yu Seongwoo’s trajectory was utterly unpredictable.
Sujeong could only hope the broadcast day would come soon.
* * *
A few days earlier, Yoo Seongah had scowled at the phone call that came early in the morning. It was less than two hours after she’d fallen asleep from working until dawn.
“Who’s this, calling so early.”
When she checked the screen, irritation flared even brighter.
[Shrimp]
“Insane. Did this kid cause trouble again?”
She answered curtly.
“What.”
Then a flood of words poured through the receiver.
[Sis, I seriously killed it this time, I mean it—you have to watch the live broadcast, seriously!]
“What’s with you, acting all desperate?”
[You’ll watch it, right?]
“I think I’ll be at the studio that day anyway?”
[Then we can watch it together—]
Yoo Seongah considered this seriously. What had this kid gotten into?
“What are you saying—stop talking nonsense and go practice.”
[Obviously. And, um… sis.]
“What, you’ve got more to say?”
A beat of silence followed.
In that moment, Yoo Seongah was certain. Ah, this kid’s about to ask for something again.
He’d been like this since childhood—couldn’t just come out and ask for what he wanted, always beat around the bush. She could practically see him whimpering like a puppy desperate for something right now.
[That thing you posted on SNS before, that explanation post.]
“Yeah?”
[I got so many responses back then, and I thought it was really cool……]
“Did you eat something weird? Why are you being so roundabout?”
[I really danced well this time……]
Yoo Seongah suppressed her laughter and asked.
“So you want me to post it on SNS, is that what you’re trying to say?”
[Not exactly, but if I really danced well…?]
“Fine. If the dancing’s too embarrassing, I won’t post it, obviously?”
[Yeah! Thanks, sis!]
“Seriously, I’m the best sister ever, aren’t I?”
And so there she was, watching episode five with her dancer friends.
“I still crack up thinking about that dating rumor.”
Theo, her fellow choreographer, giggled from where he lounged on the sofa.
“Stop. I’m still mad about it.”
She threw a cushion even as her eyes stayed fixed on the TV.
[Yu Seongwoo, Trainee: The outfits we chose are, as you can see, really fantastic! They’re Suits. We reinterpreted the pop star Henry’s “Chase” with a unique concept!]
“That’s right. That’s how you should talk—with confidence.”
It was something Yoo Seongah always emphasized.
[Particularly, this stage was noted for Seongwoo’s arrangements and Jaeseong’s choreography.]
[So what was their preparation process like?]
The camera naturally cut to the practice room.
[Trainee Go Jaeseong: So, Seongwoo. How about you take the lead on all the producing for this one?]
“Wow, your brother’s got serious talent.”
“That kind of skill doesn’t just disappear.”
“……hell.”
[Production Staff: Why did you give all the producing responsibilities to Trainee Seongwoo this time? There are only two people in the Producing position.]
[Trainee Go Jaeseong: Friendly competition is good, but the team needs to do well first. And since I decided to focus more on choreography this time, I wanted to trust Seongwoo with it.]
[Trainee Go Jaeseong’s affection for his teammate shines through.]
“Oh, his character is amazing.”
“That’s hard to pull off in a survival show—”
The others offered compliments toward Go Jaeseong, but Yoo Seongah crossed her arms.
“You never know.”
“Here we go again.”
“Hey, if he wasn’t Code 2, would he even say stuff like that?”
Her friends burst out laughing.
“What, your pride hurt? I thought arms always bend inward?”
“What are you talking about.”
Yes. Her pride had been subtly wounded.
If Seongwoo had made the Debut Group, surely Jaeseong would have led the producing instead.
‘Which means I’m not even worth watching anymore?’
She didn’t drop her dismissive gaze. She was the only one who could look down on Seongwoo.
[Trainee Yu Seongwoo: What about a grim reaper concept?]
[Team Members: A grim reaper?]
[Trainee Choi Unjo: Reaper? Lion? I like lions!]
At the absurd comment, Yoo Seongah let out a hollow laugh.
And for the first time, she understood Seongwoo’s struggles.
“A grim reaper? That sounds fun.”
“A grim reaper in a suit…… I think it’d look good.”
The mid-evaluation began, and Go Jaeseong’s choreography was revealed.
It was choreography that preserved the original song’s atmosphere while highlighting new appeal without a sense of discord.
[Katin: Who designed this?]
[Trainee Yu Seongwoo: Jaeseong worked really hard. He really created it all from start to finish by himself.]
[Katin: So you worked together on the chorus choreography?]
[Trainee Go Jaeseong: I worked on that as well.]
[Trainee Yu Seongwoo: That’s right. He must have had a tough time teaching us.]
[The judges and trainees nod in admiration.]
“Is he an idol because it’s a waste of a face to be a choreographer?”
“The chorus choreography is really good though?”
[And so, the stage of the ‘Hunter’ team, which had gathered everyone’s expectations, begins!]
Yoo Seongah quietly picked up her phone.
“Recording?”
“Wow, so you’re a fan of your little brother after all?”
Her friends teased her in unison.
“I’m collecting evidence.”
“Evidence of what?”
“Evidence that Seongwoo’s become a decent person.”
The stage began, and Yoo Seongah’s eyebrows rose slightly.
“……huh?”
It was better than expected. No—better than expected wasn’t quite right. It was actually quite impressive.
“He really did turn into a decent person.”
Two weeks of round-the-clock training had paid off. Yoo Seongah genuinely marveled at her own ability.
“I should really use this as a promotional video.”
“Out of nowhere?”
“I literally just turned a squid into a person.”
When Seongwoo stepped into the center and danced his part, she couldn’t hide her satisfaction.
“See? See? Did you see him dancing in the center right now?”
“He really does dance well?”
“I made all of it.”
“Sure you did. You’re amazing, seriously.”
The moment the stage ended, his friends started clapping first.
“That was insane.”
“Hey, your brother’s going to debut.”
“We should’ve watched it earlier to give him a heads-up.”
“……Well, at least he didn’t embarrass himself.”
By Yoo Seongah’s standards, it was the highest praise.
[We’re now revealing the Round 4 live vote results!]
[Team 1st place is…… Congratulations, Hunter Team!]
“Oh??”
“Crazy—that’s the team with your brother, right?”
Then came the overall top ranking announcement.
Yoo Seongah held her breath, waiting to hear Yu Seongwoo’s name called, and resumed recording.
[Congratulations. Go Jaeseong, Trainee!]
“……Ah~”
“Well, at least the team got first, so we’ll get the benefits.”
“Go Jaeseong? Isn’t he the one taking Center?”
“How much longer until the Public Vote closes?”
[Time remaining until Boys Code Public Vote closes?]
[05:00:00]
“Wow, they show us the stage today and voting closes right after?”
“I heard the filming schedule was brutal, and it really is—”
“Five hours… like anything’s going to change in that time?”
[Interim Rankings Announcement]
The trainees’ names were revealed slowly, starting from 18th place.
[Code 6: Yu Seongwoo]
“What a shame—Code 6 is right below, isn’t it? Still, he did well in today’s stage, so next time the ranking should…”
While everyone waited for what came next, Yoo Seongah was different.
She quickly uploaded a video to her Instagram.
It was a clip edited together—footage from his early training days and the stage he performed today.
[This is how you prove a two-week miracle ^^
How to vote: (link)]
“Man, Yu Seongwoo really lucked out having a sister like that.”
Yoo Seongah was Korea’s most-followed choreographer. Within moments of the upload, tens of thousands of people were reacting to her post.
-How the hell did you make this?
-Insane he’s Yoo Seongah’s brother
-Now I get what kind of sibling he has at home lol
-Seongah I thought dancing talent ran in families but I guess not haha @Jay_dance
The video quickly reached other choreographers who followed her as well.
When Yu Seongwoo checked Yoo Seongah’s SNS, he quietly clenched his fist.
“Now all that’s left is to wait.”

“She was the only one who could look down on Seongwoo.”
Typical sister mindset.
