— JUST A DANCER AUDITION!

will it be enough, jinah?

Blood, sweat and tears. Sure it might be an exaggeration but it was what Jinah currently felt about during these weeks that have led to this audition with the potential of being a backup dancer for HONEY’s upcoming solo. The music is good, the choreography is challenging in a good way and Jinah was feeling a lot better than she was a few weeks ago. Her shoes are tight and her training clothing fit snug against her body. She wants to do well and if the gods allow it, to be picked as a dancer but more so for herself and the improvements she has made with her dancing.

Jinah isn’t starting this audition with a high ego or as if she became the best in just over a month, but that she can stand on her left AND right foot for once. The camera began to record which meant the audition had begun with Jinah taking a deep breath before she began. She made it apparent to memorize the movements and timing of steps with the rhythm of the song, once in a while catching herself mouthing the lyrics. It was honestly a good song and she couldn’t help but really vibe with it to hear it in its complete form on the music charts. 

She had put so much energy into the first minutes that now droplets could be felt forming at her hairline, but that was acceptable in her nature. This was full-on choreography she had two weeks to perfect so her whole body and energy had to be in this, whether it impressed people or disappointed them. The pressure on her knees did not burn like before, her legs not as stiff either. Jinah did her best to allow her body to move with the song but not go into full freeform, there were still requirements that needed to be fulfilled for this audition to be approved. The song began to fade and Jinah knew that her recording was complete and that her audition would be reviewed. Jinah thought she gave it her all and was already sitting well with the fact that it will probably not be what she wants but if anything, she is glad she got through this bootcamp.

it was so early. granted, sena should have been used to this; she was used to getting up at around 5:30am to be ready for dance training. however, it was surprisingly more draining to sit on a bus for a while than it was actually being up and dancing. perhaps it was due to the fact that she was sitting, and wanted to sleep but couldn’t due to the bumpiness of the ride; or, perhaps it was because she wad dreading a whole month of dancing almost non-stop when she knew she wasn’t the best dancer. 

by the time the bus arrived at cj enm contents world, sena was ready to take the hour she had left before the first lessons began to take a quick little nap. however, in her grogginess, she hadn’t realized- she has a roommate. she looked at the luggage laying on the floor, her eyes moved upwards, seeing another girl, probably a bit older than her, sitting on one of the beds. “okay,” sena thought to herself silently, “it’s fine. it’s just like back at the company.”

she bowed politely. “hi, i’m sena. nice to meet you.” she placed her black suitcase down on her bed, carefully zipping it open and beginning to place some of her clothes in the drawers. she’d only brought her training clothes with her, unsure that there would be any time to go out anyways. besides, they were going back in just six days, so she could grab some extra stuff if she needed. “oh-” she quickly realized jinah was talking to her as she was doing this. “uh, i’m kind of excited. it’ll be nice to have a change of scenery from the company building.” 

“Oh yeah that’s true.” Jinah kinda got stuck in her own thoughts for a few moments after that, putting on her shoes and seeing Sena put her clothes away. As much as she wanted to sleep it seemed like a good idea instead of rummaging through her luggage each day. She remembers seeing Sena around the training rooms never really had a reason to interact, well until now. Jinah figured if they are going to be here the next few weeks it would be better to at least get to know her rather be complete strangers.

Jinah mimicked the others actions and placed her clothes in an open drawer next to her, be it more so threw them in without any form of organization. “My better judgement told me not to sign-up since dancing is my weakest skill but I wouldn’t get better unless I push myself.” She shrugged her shoulders as she plopped back on her bed. The day had barely started and even though her body was tired, her mind was already racing with anticipation, probably why she wouldn’t shut up.

Her thoughts went back into wishing she brought her vitamins and melatonin gummies but knew pure exhaustion would put her to sleep. “How long have you been a trainee with LCG? I’ve only been with them little over a year and I still don’t know everyone yet.” It liked like Jinah was talking to the ceiling but she just refused to move from her comfortable position, “Would be cool to be picked for the music video but ehh I’m not gonna ride on too much hope.”

— DEBUT BOOTCAMP LESSON : week 3

what is this? a boost of confidence? 

She knew what she got herself into, knew that even though she has improved in her dancing, that is still one of her weakest skills even if she has only been at LGC for little over a year. Jinah is proud of her accomplishments but this bootcamp has exposed her weakness to the fullest for everyone to see. The choreography for week 2 was one thing and felt pretty good, like she was finally finding her footing and losing her extra left foot.

But this next week was another story. She felt it in her knees, ankles and feet, like her muscles were sore, joints popping as if she hadn’t moved in months. Jinah thought she was over this with her body in the first couple months when she joined LGC but now it’s as if her body got sucked back into time with all this bootcamp crap. It’s not crap in all honesty, but Jinah is really hating having to move along her knees on the wooden floor in the training rooms.

The scoldings were just as brutal if not worse given the circumstance and Jinah was really feeling her energy drained from the coaches and trainers. It made it hard to sleep even with their comments running laps through her mind, even as she tries to massage out her joints before going to bed. All Jinah wants is to improve herself and possibly see the finish line of this whole bootcamp. But it seems like her own growth is not stagnant but it's slow and obviously causing frustration among herself and others.

Jinah doesn’t want to give up, not now. She wants nothing more than to prove she can get the choreography and actually show promising growth. If there was one thing her father gave her, it was his determination and willingness to take the hits but never stop pushing through. A couple more bruises kissed her skins and ice packs now sat on her knees to ease the pain after stretching. Even one of the coaches seemed to ask if she was okay, but Jinah assured them that it was herself pushing improve and that she was not there to waste anyone’s time.She wasn’t working herself to injury but she was pushing her drive to understand her own limits in dancing and to figure out how to get this choreography down. It wasn’t just about the bootcamp but if Jinah could get some solid improvement out of this then she would actually see the finish line to the bigger picture of her future.

@lgcsena​

7am on the dot. Jinah’s bags are packed and eyes heavy as she vaguely sits next to another trainee as instructions are being told to them all. She can hear what is being said but it’s taking all her will power not to role her eyes. It’s like the word “bootcamp” isn’t known to be a symbol or working to the bone physically and mentally... Jinah knew what she signed up for even if she hated the early hours.

Luckily the drive wasn’t long and soon they were given their room assignments to settle in and begin the bootcamp. Jinah was the first to reach the room and just picked a random spot to unpack or honestly just throw her bags to the bed. It was about an hour before it all started so she just allowed herself to stretch across her bed and see who her roommates were gonna be. She didn’t think much about changing and even fell into a half-sleep before she hear another pair of feet walking into the room.

She didn’t mean to jump to her feet but it just kinda happened, more so in fear it was someone else. “Oh hey!” She gave a small wave and bow to the young woman. Jinah remembers her face from LGC but they never interacted, like a face you pass by over the year, “My name is Jinah! I claimed this bed but you can pick whatever one you like. No one else has showed up yet.” Jinah didn’t want to just stand there so she went to her bag and pulled up her training shoes to switch out the pair she was wearing, “You excited for this? I wonder how grueling it will be...”

— two peas in a pod

@lgcxhaeun​

Jinah knew the routine, it has been set in stone for over a year but it doesn’t mean she likes getting out of bed. But that’s why they make alarms and dormmates who will pull at you to get up. Though Jinah enjoys her weekday schedule the main highlight when it comes to Saturday’s is she gets to see Haeun and actually have a bit of a social life. Of course as they get ready they chat and gossip about anything they can and then it turns into silly faces and telepathy eye contact during the training periods. They had first met briefly  during auditions in July of 2021 and behold when the day same to move into the dorms a familiar face was there to greet one another with a friendship blooming along the way.

It’s crazy to think that Jinah and Haeun would become friends so quickly but Jinah knew the first day they ever stayed up late talking about each other interests and just life stuff that she wanted the other in their life. Sure life was currently a straining routine of sweat and criticism but it was what she signed up for, and no one was alone in this.

So like any other Saturday where Jinah doesn’t have to idle behind a counter, her time is focused on the training ahead even if it means she zones out for hours on end. but that’s why free practice is her favorite since it meant she could practically cling to Haeun in the practice rooms. This evening was no different with Jinah screaming for Haeun across the hall with water in her hands, “Wait!” She starts her waddle-run passing other trainees as many depart in different directions to catch up with her friend and basically jumps next to her in place, “I bring offering of a hard days work.” Sure she was being sarcastic but it was more so allowing herself not to completely zone out and enjoy time together, “I got scolded again for my dancing. I swear they may cut off my feet at this point.” A pout on her lips but nonetheless following Haeun at her shoulder.

— Oh right, it’s my birthday. Cool!

: mention of @lgcxhaeun

It’s not like Jinah hates her birthday or deliberately forgets every year, she just wasn’t use to it being celebrated on the actual day. Usually it was on the day before or after since work always came first for her family. She didn’t mind it but now after years of a off-set routine, it is now the second time her dormmates, especially Haeun have wished her a happy birthday and Jinah was oblivious for about 5 minutes until finally realizing what day it was. It’s refreshing of celebrating on the actual day but Jinah will forever be embarrassed of her own lack attention, especially when Haeun is always the first to greet her with a gift and food. Jinah of course is so grateful and it just makes her try her best to remember the next year and cherish her friends that she has made along the way.

— integrity

sometimes parents don’t know what’s best. 

Nothing is always at its finest. Jinah is always trying to be a new and improved self, even if it meant telling the truth would hurt someone in the long run. This was exactly what her family made her do when it came to her time at LGC. The integration always began around the holiday season when “family” is the main theme along Christmas.... and its only November. Jinah had just finished training for the day and her 4 hour shirt at the convenient store when she got the call from her father. She expected it was him asking about plans of who was visiting who but it turned sour when he asked if she would like to come to the states for a few weeks.

“Dad, you know I can’t right now. I’m in a good spot with LGC and that is just too much time away from training.” Jinah was sighing into her phone knowing exactly where this conversation was going. It has been a hot topic among her parents the last couple months and get aggressive during this time. She can already see her father’s frown and the scrunch of his eyebrow even through the phone.

She thought they would have stayed supportive but it seems that even if she had not been removed from the company, passing the two-year mark is going too far. Jinah just allowed herself to listen with empty ears and nonchalant responses as her steps made it back to the dorms. She knows that with this response that he will go straight to her mother and most likely tomorrow her next phone call in the evening with be from her mother. 

Jinah knows that they want nothing but the best for her but she just wished they would trust her in this career choice rather than question everything. “Dad. Despite the crazy hours, I honestly like what I’m doing and how I’m going about this. I wish would guys would trust me like you did with all my other life choices! What made you stop?”

fables ; blood of my blood

it was rather late for hyunah to still be out. normally her mother required her to go straight to the dorms and call her right after she finished her training for the day. her mother was still irritated with her choosing to stay in the offered dorms instead of commuting from home for her training, but hyunah enjoyed the freedom. every time she went home for the weekend she longed for the dorms and counted the minutes until she would return to legacy entertainment and her everyday life there. home life was slowly becoming a nightmare for her, especially so because of her last visit. she swirled the bottom of her frozen coffee drink within the disposable plastic cup she held, poking holes in the chunk of ice with her straw. she glanced over to her companion sitting with her on the bench outside their regular cafe they went to, then returned her attention to the straw. "do you parents ever fight still? even after separating?" her own did. she had overheard them arguing about her mother housing four out of five of them. apparently the only successful child they have is yeona, her oldest sister, and the only one who went to go live with their father. she'd be lying if she said overhearing that didn't hurt, and of course it sparked rage in her older sister jeona. hearing jeona get angry over something wasn't new, but it was something she could do without when he visited home. "what's it like being an only child?" @jinahlgc

[jinahlgc]

The day was fresh, crisp even to Jinah’s eyes that even the ambient notice of the city that surrounds her wasn’t as annoying as before, reminds her of her time back in San Francisco. But her attention was not on the cityscape, but of the friend who played with their coffee, obviously in thought. Jinah had an idea why but figured this was not the moment to pry but wait for the subject to come up as she takes a sip from her own cup, casually looking into it to see how much is left. It didn’t take long for the first questions of thought come to surface as Jinah already felt her heart breaking for Hyunah but that is why she is here, why they are friends. “They fought a lot when I was younger, mainly about my dad wanting to see me more but I think it died down once I hit middle school and they became a lot more civil.” Jinah didn’t mean to sigh but while those were not the best of memories, it feels worth seeing them interact now on holidays and actually just being friends now that Jinah is an adult. “And being an only child... it got lonely at home, especially after the divorce since I moved from all my friends. But that might be why I’m so friendly now, even if it drains me. Don’t wanna lose anyone...” 

 It’s obvious that Jinah and Hyunah have lived similar but at the same time different lives that even allow them to have this conversation. Jinah knew that with these questions coming up mean that her time with her family was not the best and it was bringing up negative feelings, she could hear it in Hyunah’s voice. With a nudge to the other’s shoulder Jinah gave her a small smile, “What happened this weekend? And how are you doing?” she knew she didn’t need to ask 20 questions but wanted to give her friend the freedom of how much or how little she wanted to talk about. Jinah gets its and knows all too well of what stays inside your head when you hear your parents say things you never thought they say. Whether they mean it or not, it sticks with you.
