#WORK_IT

sunmi was excited for this assignment. meeting such prominent dancers in the community was always a great opportunity. she was in awe from the very beginning (and a bit smug, honestly, it was about damn time for nova to recognise her as one of the best dancers). every session in the studio left her feeling rejuvenated and excited.  it was the stark opposite to her normal days in nova. it felt like she finally had a purpose.

of course being an assistant to a well-known choreographer wasn’t a complete pay off; it was still something, at least. nova was the company known for dancing. it made sense for them to conduct something like this. for the longest, sunmi hadn’t even given thought to who she’d might see in her classes. she was just focusing on doing a good job.

as an experienced dance teacher, it was easy for her to digest the moves and be able to teach it to others properly. there’s a difference between being a talented enough dancer that you have wisdom to share to being an experience teacher who knows how to teach people who learn differently. she knew she wouldn’t have much difficulty helping out in her classes as long as students were willing to learn.

sunmi hadn’t thought about the very likely possibility of a fan approaching her during or after class. in fact, after spending so much time hidden away in nova, sunmi began to forgot she even had fans. never mind her public performances as a sphere trainee: she had her own very successful youtube channel and following established.

momo, the girl’s name was. she had caught sunmi’s eyes several times throughout class. momo was a talented dancer. she definitely was no stranger to the skill and absorbed instructions easily. she didn’t struggle nearly as much as those who didn’t grasp dances quicker. while others struggled, momo excelled. sunmi was impressed, to say the least.

having the younger female approach her for an autograph was heartwarming. she hadn’t been expecting it. she’s never given some thought that even now she could have impact on people’s lives. momo was proof that she did. as the other scurried away, she couldn’t help but beam with pride. the smile didn’t come off her face for the rest of the day after that.

// ( ★ ) DANCE CLASS ANNOUNCEMENT !

The news about the special dance classes quickly spreads around the building. A lot of trainees seem to be excited about attending but, before any groundless information starts circulating, the coaches call for a meeting inside the Nova building gym.

After everybody appears to have arrived, one of the dance coaches calls for attention before she starts speaking. “Good afternoon. As most of you may know by now, some of Nova’s artists will be giving a few dance classes at 5billion Dance Studio. A few of you will get to attend as students, of course, but some others will get a different role.” The woman scans the crowd to check for their presence before announcing their names. “Ha Huidong, Kim Hyuna, Lee Sunmi and Yoo Changhyun will serve as assistants for both the artists and Mia Kim during the classes.”

She doesn’t let people start whispering, quickly waving a hand to keep the attention on her. “As for the rest of you, entrance for the classes will be free of charge, though you are not obligated to attend. Still, I don’t know why you’d like to skip such an opportunity.” The coach had sounded enthusiastic up until to that point, as if someone decided not to go, then the coach would need to stay behind unhappily as well. “Don’t think of this as some fun trip because it isn’t — this is meant to substitute your regular dance classes. Your peers will be working as teachers alongside professionals while you’ll be learning from them. I hope you’ll reflect about this and work on bettering your own skills so that you can one day make Nova proud.”

Once the speech is over the woman claps her hands as a notice that the meeting was over. “Now go back to your schedules. Those of you who I called the names of earlier should stay to hear all the extra details needed.”

[ From this point on the information is only relevant to the trainees chosen as assistants and do not apply to the rest. ]

On May 5th, all four of the chosen trainees will head to the 5Billion Dance Studio where they’ll learn the choreographies from Mia herself and a few other dancers so they’ll know it on the day of the official class. Mia and the others will work on a rotational schedule so they can go back to their own job at the studio. The idols will not be present during this learning session since their schedules may conflict. The trainees should arrive there by their own means at 9am and will get to leave whenever they finished learning their choreographies, heading right back to their usual schedules afterwards.

To win +3 DANCING POINTS, +2 DEBUT POINTS and +1WK HIP HOP, write a 300+ words solo or a four post thread with another assistant trainee about your muse practicing for dance class. It doesn’t necessarily need to be about the day spent in the studio. Everyone has until midnight at the end of Wednesday, May 23rd, to write for this event. Please tag all posts related as #rkicassistant. Threads may be continued after the deadline but requirements must be achieved before it to count for points.
