The Chaebol’s Daughter Debuted
Episode 99
Already the 4th round.
As she said, the time had come when I needed to give my all and reveal myself.
I spoke while receiving the pouring gazes of Yu-hwa and the members.
“I’d like to take the second verse bridge part this time.”
The second verse bridge of Midnight Vibe is the killing point and highlight part of this song.
High notes that rapidly go back and forth in the gradually intensifying atmosphere, and the doubling that supports them.
In fact, it was a part that produced as many shorts as the chorus challenge.
It often went up with nuances like ‘idol doing live high notes and doubling on every music show’.
If the challenge was uploaded by Dream Light’s official channel, the bridge part was mainly uploaded by their fans with pride.
Anyway, it was a part that was difficult but could attract a lot of attention.
Stepping forward first saying I’d do it could seem quite greedy.
“Really? I like it. Ji-ye would bring out that part the best.”
“No, Ji-ye might be the only one who can bring it to life.”
“Does everyone agree?”
“Yes.”
“Yes, I think Ji-ye should do it too.”
Everyone agreed so readily it was almost bewildering.
“Thank you…”
As they said, it’s true that I’m the only one who can handle this part, but I didn’t expect them to hand it over without any hesitation.
“Yeah, from what I see, that part would suit Ji-ye well too.”
Yu-hwa said with a pleased smile.
“Since it’s a competition, you should show this much ambition. And I hope the other members don’t try to yield to each other this time either, but be greedy and try everything they can do. I deliberately chose this song for that reason.”
Ah, right. Come to think of it, Yu-hwa was the one who selected this song.
As I was recalling the heart song selection paper that had been carefully and prettily folded, the members became startled and noisy.
“Huh, did you choose this song for us, senior?”
“Wow, senior… We really thought we were so lucky to get this song!”
At the Flora members’ words, Yu-hwa smiled even more brightly.
“I’m glad you liked it! I put it in hoping ‘please let this work out’.”
It’s an idol song with a really good balance between dance and vocal parts.
A song selection that’s good for appealing skills while properly showing an idol-like appearance.
As expected, our Yu-hwa has good sense.
Anyway, thanks to that, we were able to discuss part distribution and arrangement direction where all members could showcase their respective strengths enough to be called special moves.
A dance break showcased by everyone with Han Da-min and Min Ha-young at the center.
Min Ha-young’s rap.
Moreover, since there are two rappers from Dream Light this time, Han Da-min, who has a wide spectrum of part handling, decided to participate in the rap part as well.
And Seo Ra-eun, whose presence hadn’t been revealed despite her skills, said she wanted to do the doubling for the bridge part I was taking on.
“I can really do this well. If, if you entrust it to me, I’ll do my best.”
Seo Ra-eun spoke in her usual timid tone, but she was more resolute and confident than usual.
Who would oppose when she says she can do it well? She especially has a sweet voice as her strength, so she’ll definitely do well.
And.
“I want to take the intro part. …Unless the unnies want to do it.”
Choi Song-i also let us know which part she wanted to do.
Come to think of it, Song-i was always like this.
She was clear about which part she wanted to do, but if other members showed signs of wanting it too, she would quickly step back.
Even during the 1st round training camp, she would at least make a dissatisfied expression, but now there’s none of that.
It might not be that she had no ambition for parts, but that she disliked part competition.
“Can I do it?”
“Do it, do it, do it! Song-i absolutely has to do the intro!”
“How about Song-i starting from the very beginning of the prelude? Let’s pour all the acting skills you’ve built up since Gaenari Kindergarten right here!”
The members all made a fuss and spoke to Song-i in unison.
Then Song-i became very shy and bowed her head deeply.
“…Okay. Then, I’ll do it.”
“Great~”
All members answered Choi Song-i’s blunt words with energetic voices.
The corners of my mouth curved into a pleasant arc.
‘The members are being even more proactive today.’
They weren’t usually passive, but unlike before when Yu-hwa, Han Da-min, and I led the part distribution, this time everyone had thought in advance about the parts they wanted to do and could do.
All the members know.
Now, when we’ve become the concentrated target of external attacks and simultaneously, whether good or bad, interest in Flora has increased, is exactly when we need to give our all to prove ourselves.
If we just get through this hurdle well, we’ll probably be able to make a much higher leap than now.

“Good work, girls. Leave the arrangement to me and you focus on practice. Got it?”
“Yes!”
“See you at the next meeting.”
Around dinner time, the meeting with Yu-hwa ended.
Yu-hwa returned with a more satisfied expression than ever, and we could finally unpack at the dormitory.
Two rooms were assigned as Flora’s share.
This time too, it was a room located in a corner not easily visible to cameras.
‘If they’re going to be petty, they can really be this petty.’
There are only four teams left now, couldn’t they assign us rooms with good sunlight and camera visibility?
While grumbling internally and entering the room with my roommate Min Ha-young.
“What? Why is everyone coming to this room?”
Min Ha-young stopped opening the door and looked back with a puzzled face.
The members were naturally standing behind us, waiting.
They were standing so naturally and casually that they seemed ready to enter the room before us as soon as the door opened.
“Huh?”
Han Da-min said with a genuinely clueless expression.
“Aren’t you going in?”
“Anyway, if we didn’t come, Ha-young unnie and Ji-ye unnie would come to our room saying they’re bored.”
Choi Song-i said matter-of-factly.
Min Ha-young rolled her eyes and then opened the door wide, saying that made sense.
“Come in, everyone.”
The small room quickly filled with people.
“Ugh, I’m tired from driving since morning. Song-i, come here quickly.”
“Ah, I don’t want to, it’s hot.”
Even while saying that, Choi Song-i crawled over and sat next to Han Da-min, who was lying on the floor with her arms spread wide.
“Unnie, did you drive here?”
“Yeah, when I came last time, I saw there were lots of parking spaces.”
“Wow, as expected of an adult. I want to get my license too…”
When Min Ha-young said with sparkling eyes, Han Da-min shrugged and said.
“The car is my mom’s though. Ah, Ha-young and Ra-eun, let me know if you want. I can pick you up for the next filming. Song-i and Ji-ye probably have people to take them.”
“Wow, really? I’d be so grateful if you did that!”
Min Ha-young immediately lay down next to Han Da-min as if acting cute.
Han Da-min giggled and laughed happily.
“Ah, right. I heard the individual PR videos we filmed for the 3rd round mission are going up tonight?”
“They’re uploading that already?”
“They said they’ll upload the group performances later, but they’re uploading the individual PR videos that count toward scoring.”
“Ugh, I must have looked completely terrible in that…”
Seo Ra-eun covered her face with both hands as she spoke.
‘The atmosphere is really good.’
I thought while unpacking my luggage.
This place, inside the dormitory room, was the only location in this building where cameras weren’t installed, except for the bathroom.
We’re still getting criticized in real-time right now.
So I thought there might be a somewhat gloomy atmosphere in the dormitory that I was worried about.
But it was harmonious through and through.
Are they all really okay? They have strong mentals.
I was thinking that while organizing the contents of my suitcase.
Knock knock.
At the sound of knocking on the door, everyone stopped talking and turned their heads.
“What? Who’s here?”
At Han Da-min’s words, I put down the clothes I was holding and stood up.
“Who is it?”
There was no answer. And when I opened the door.
“Oh my, what a surprise.”
A camera suddenly appeared along with a pink card being held out.
“What’s this?”
The members slowly got up and approached me.
I took the card and immediately read it aloud.
‘Benefit?’
What kind of benefit is this.
…Suddenly, a live broadcast with no preparation at all?
