𝕻𝖗𝖊𝖛𝖎𝖔𝖚𝖘𝖑𝖞 𝖔𝖓 𝕶𝖎𝖓𝖌𝖉𝖔𝖒… Our Kings to be participated in the challenge of “A King’s Legacy”, where the groups were tasked with covering an artist they look up to with the knowledge that all eyes are on them now.
WORD COUNT … 3.2K
It’s a familiar scene, even with all the lights and fog and swirls of color and water and energy stripped away. The banners are back and each of the five groups had returned to their designated seating areas: there was an aura of weariness but anxiety and excitement.
Some of the idols looked like all they wanted was to go get their stage makeup and outfits off and go to sleep, whereas others still were more focused as Rune and Daeil explain that the new system in place. The contestants themselves will decide the ranks today.
Looking polished as ever, the MCs each stepped to either side of the screen where five ranking boards are projected with each coordinating to the banners of the five groups. The screen reflects the center of the stage itself where five physical boys lie in wait.
Every molecule of air felt thick when the groups exchanged looks when Rune announced who would be first to come up and assign their rankings.
𝕻𝖗𝖊𝖛𝖎𝖔𝖚𝖘𝖑𝖞 𝖔𝖓 𝕶𝖎𝖓𝖌𝖉𝖔𝖒… The show must go on, and the second challenge is underway. The contestants put in the work, and it’s time to see what they have to present for the Legacy challenge.
𝕻𝖗𝖊𝖛𝖎𝖔𝖚𝖘𝖑𝖞 𝖔𝖓 𝕶𝖎𝖓𝖌𝖉𝖔𝖒… Six is cut down to three, and the first challenge is barely past the horizon. With half the potential kings cut down…it’s not about to get easier in the fight for the title of the Kings of FIC.
## BLUE MOON is the debut solo mini album of Lost Boys member Rune. The album was released on May 24, 2021 and made available for preorder earlier in May. Blue Moon is made up of seven songs, including title track “Give&Take” which had promotions for three weeks: he also promoted B-side track “Freezing” for the last week.
MOONLIT makes the cover of Singles Magazine's June 2021 cover.
The idol duo continues to make their presence known in the modeling scene, with their countless magazine cover appearances since their debut. The duo spoke mostly about trying to find themselves as they’ve continued to grow older, and as they’ve experienced countless changes due to their position in the limelight and their growing success.
Both Changyun and Daehyeon spoke about different ways they’ve tried finding themselves in their 20s, from trying new things to fixating on others to improve in certain fields, to simply trying to learn more about themselves. Moonlit put emphasis that learning more about yourself is different for everyone, and that no one path will work for everyone; it’s a long journey for everyone, one that both of the members are still enduring.
Moonlit also stated in their interview that their music and careers will also be showing the changes they themselves experience, hinting a possible different side to their music. The duo has made suggestions that they’ll be coming back soon with a new album to celebrate the beginning of summer.
𝕻𝖗𝖊𝖛𝖎𝖔𝖚𝖘𝖑𝖞 𝖔𝖓 𝕶𝖎𝖓𝖌𝖉𝖔𝖒… the first challenge was unleashed upon the six groups, and the war truly began for the King of FIC. Before the second episode, it’s time to reveal the ranks.
The six groups have returned to their places, some looking worse for wear in their stage outfits. All traces of the sets used for the performances are gone. All that remains is the two MCs standing in front of a screen. Professional smiles are plastered on their faces when Rune speaks first.
“You survived…for now.” He nods, looking at Daeil as they part to flank the screen elevated above them. Six banners are depicted much like those on the set. The camera pans out to reveal confusion. There are only three groups on screen, as three banners both on the set and on the screen go dark, devoid of color.
𝕻𝖗𝖊𝖛𝖎𝖔𝖚𝖘𝖑𝖞 𝖔𝖓 𝕶𝖎𝖓𝖌𝖉𝖔𝖒… The six groups fighting for the crown all made themselves known. Now, it’s time for them to throw themselves into their first challenge. While there are no eliminations, no one wants to be last in line for the title of King.

Summary: Daehyeon had fallen into a routine he couldn't bring himself to get out of. To spend countless nights with unknown men, seeking intimacy in moments of lust and desire, but never truly getting what he craved, surrendering himself to moments of loneliness and rash decisions.
Warning(s): sexual content (no actual sex), potential slut-shaming, bad mental state, mentions of toxic relationships
When Daehyeon was growing up, he had been enticed by the prospect of fairytales and happy endings. He was fascinated by the idea of a true love so strong it would stand the harshest tests the sand of times used in an attempt to bury the romance. As Dae grew older day by day, so did his desire to fall in love. To fall so fast, that it would be impossible to avoid it. To fall so hard, that his body would never forget it. To fall so carelessly, that he would never regret it.
When Daeheyon was growing up, he left the idea of being in love alongside memories in the past. He threw himself overboard from his journey in finding his true love, and subsided into a sea of yearning instead. As Dae grew older day by day, so did his disdain for the concept of falling in love once again. To fall so fast, that the adrenaline of it all wouldn’t let the pain be felt until long after. To fall so hard, that there would be reminders in and on his body of how harsh the impact was. To fall so carelessly, that he would never make another move without any thought again.
The young idol shook the drink in his hand gently, only taking sips of the water whenever nobody was around so he could freely pull his mask down. He tried to submerge himself in the waves of music that illuminated the bar, without the tinge of alcohol rushing through his body. Water, because drinking alcohol on nights like this had already burned a regret so fiercely that Daehyeon still felt the flames of its pain. The bar had become both another home, and had become a thriving reminder of the countless mistakes Dae had made and the mistakes he was bound to make.
With how comfortable and acquainted Daehyeon had become with the constant hookups and one-night stands it wasn’t difficult for him to know which streets of Seoul to venture towards to find places that had what he was looking for. Never trying to become too familiar in a particular bar or club, in a specific part of Seoul, Dae spent countless nights bouncing between Itaewon and Jongno, sometimes going to buildings hidden in dark alleys and quiet streets.
He never made it a habit to visit a particular establishment too much: although Moonlit wasn’t booming with popularity, he wasn’t looking to take the risk. Plus, it was a hit or miss with the guys Dae spent the night at hotel rooms with.
Some of the guys were the type who Dae knew he’d never see again: the type who used Dae like an experiment. The ones who would fuck Dae without caring a bit for the idol’s pleasure or desire. Simply wanting to see if their attraction to men was something real or not, before slipping out of the room the moment they finished, never intending to return. If they realized they had no interest in men, Dae simply became a memory hidden in the darkest corners never letting the light reach. If they realized they had an interest in men, Dae was out of the question: they wanted someone who was made for a relationship, not someone who was good for spreading their legs within seconds.
Some of the guys were exactly what Daehyeon was looking for. Men who were on the same path of simply wanting a good fuck, no strings attached and no romance threatening to peek around the corner. If they both enjoyed their companies, they’d share numbers and solely contact whenever one wanted the other, no simple pleasantries.
Yeah, maybe Daehyeon was just something to be used to these men, but it wasn’t like it was any different for him. Being used meant being needed, and it had gotten to the point where as long as Dae felt needed, it was ok.
He suddenly felt someone slip into the seat next to him in the bar, looking from the corner of his eyes to see a guy who’s back was to the bar, idly sipping his drink. If it had been Dae’s first time out like this, he would’ve simply turned and continued to mind his business, but having spent so many nights like this he knew what it meant.
It wasn’t the easiest thing to simply walk up to someone and ask if they wanted to have a good time for countless reasons ranging from the awkwardness of it all, to the possibility of a blunt rejection. Little motions and movements like these were simpler and got the message across in a way that was solely known between the two people.
Daehyeon leaned back just a bit, to the point where he made eye-contact with the man and gave a small nod. He had a striking face, his straight brows highlighted his sharp eyes, cheekbones that would’ve made Dae think he was a model if he wasn’t so confident showing his face like this, and soft red lips that had a playful smile the moment he met Dae’s eyes.
It wasn’t even a moment after he got up and left towards the bathroom that Daehyeon followed, leaving his water at the bar. Taking barely a step into the bathroom, he felt a hand grasp onto his wrist, tugging him into one of the stalls. Dae slipped off his mask almost out of habit, ready to speak before he felt lips pressed against his.
A surge of worry spread through his body like a bolt of electricity, feeling the man’s hands grab onto his back pulling Dae closer into him. However, the momentarily worry fades when he finds himself seeping into the kiss, letting his desire take a hold of him.
A gentle gasp slips from his lips at the man’s sudden movement to Dae’s ass, grabbing a hold of it as he pushes Dae back against the stall wall, the gasp allowing for his tongue to touch against Dae’s. The daze that the idol’s become far too familiar with, the feeling flourishing from his mind to throughout his body was what he was craving the moment he stepped into the bar. The feeling of being wanted; the feeling of being needed.
Daehyeon couldn’t stop himself from moaning into the nameless man’s mouth as he got harsher with his hands, squeezing his ass with both a sense of desperation and lust. He left himself in the mercy of the stranger, allowing for the latter to take full control and lead Dae however he wished.
It wasn’t until both men were out of breath that they pulled away, locking eyes again for what seemed like only the second time before he made a move once again, this time his hands darting towards Dae’s jeans only for the idol to stop him.
“Hold on, I’m not getting my back blown out in a bathroom stall.”
“I thought that’s why you followed me?” the man’s voice was smothered in a tone that made the question falter more like a statement, Dae having to stop his knees from feeling weak when he heard the deep raspiness emitting from his words.
“Ok, well, yeah. Definitely wouldn’t mind getting my back blown out, but bathrooms aren’t my thing.”
“Speaking from experience?” the man now had the slightest smirk growing on his face, leaning over just to the point where his shoulder was resting on the opposite wall.
“Maybe, maybe.” Daehyeon ran a hand through his hair, licking the same lips he wished were still pressed up against the lips of the man in front of him. “Not planning to try it out again here, though.”
The man whose eyes seemed to dance with a light-hearted brightness that rivaled the bright lights of the bar outside simply took a moment to catch his breath, idly looking Daehyeon up and down as if he was questioning if he was worth something more than a quickie right next to a toilet.
“Fine. Let’s go.” his words were brief and lacked any real care, as if he was the one in full control of what happened tonight; as if Daehyeon was simply just something from him to tug along until he no longer wanted him around. And maybe that was the truth.
The two left the bathroom together, neither making any type of move to look as if they were together; it was simply the man who smelt like the most cautious mixture of cigarettes and the woods walking in front, while Dae idly trailed behind him. It wasn’t until they were both out of the bar that the idol finally matched his pace, walking side by side to the man who was just moments ago feeling every part of his body, only to walk now as if he had little to no care if Dae would follow.
“So, can I get a name?”
“Nah.” Daehyeon only smiled at what he assumed to be a joke from the man, only for the smile to fall as fast as it appeared when he realised he was completely serious. “It’s not like you need it, and it’s not like we’ll see each other after tonight. I know a cheap hotel, c’mon.”
Daehyeon grew silent, realizing any idle chatter created in an attempt to lay down a comfortable environment was not needed. It wasn’t rare for Dae to meet someone like this, after all he’d fucked married businessmen who made it seem as if they didn’t even want to know anything about Dae aside from how he looked bent over a bed. It wasn’t uncommon for Dae to feel like a slut on nights like these, after all he had since long lost track of the number of men he let fuck him in the most questionable manners and places.
However, he was more than fine with feeling like that.
Daehyeon didn’t mind feeling like a slut or being called a slut, because it was the truth.
Daehyeon didn’t mind it, because he would much rather wear his scarlet letter brightly on his chest, than to let his heart beat on his sleeves. Being used as someone who was just good for a quick fuck, sometimes not even in private, and sometimes not even with a care for his own pleasure, was much better than being someone who was vulernable to having his heart stolen from him; to have each aorta ripped out in the name of love, each valve ripped open, leaving nothing for himself while having given everything to someone else.
Before, Daehyeon was drowning in the waves of bad memories that someone he once so clearly loved and cared for, had decided to pull the tide against him. Every time he attempted to raise himself up, another wave simply crashed into him, always casted upon him by the people he loved but never truly loved him.
Now, Daehyeon had decided to simply float amongst the countless waves, instead of fighting against them.
It was different now. Rather than being vulnerable to pain that he would never see coming, Daehyeon was in control of what happened to him. Maybe he got hurt every so often, but it was different to be in charge of the hurt, than to be hurt by others.
When university student Seo Daehyeon is in need of cash, a friend of a friend asks him to be a model for his art project. Little does Daehyeon know that with random coffee meetings to discuss the project, being the focus of the artist for countless hours, and feeling a sense of happiness he’s never felt before whenever he sees him, the painting isn’t the only work in progress.
CHAOTIC (2018)
Love comes in countless forms, but love isn’t always a blessing. Stuck in a relationship where the feeling of despair and pain is more prominent than the love that’s become lost memories, Seo Daehyeon has to learn about putting himself first: loving himself is the only way to get out of this.
FIND YOU (2020)
When Cha Changyun wakes up one morning to find out all his loved ones have no recollection of him, all hope feels lost. When Cha Changyun attempts to lean on his boyfriend he finds out he no longer exists. But when notes and hints are scattered around in the places that only these two know, Changyun is determined to find him. To find everything he's lost.
99 DEGREES (2019)
Being the son of one of the world's largest spy agencies, Changyun expected a lot out of this life: from insane missions across the globe, high speed chases in the middle of the dessert, and fights that would leave countless scars, both physical and mental. But what he didn't expect was falling for the son of an enemy agency, and realizing his greatest fight had just begun.

It’s dark, but a bright light snaps on to reveal the set as two men walk in to see a stage surrounded by stands modelled after the Coliseum in a semicircle with a space to walk beneath the stark banner with the show’s golden logo embroidered onto the weathered black and blue fabric. The stage lights seem to be suspended in midair, vanishing into the dark of a miles-high ceiling.
Earlier this year, CHANNEL M+ announced that it would be hosting its very first competition show for boy groups to compete for the the crown. The show will take six groups and have them compete with a variety of challenges, with the winners receiving a special comeback show and accompanying reality series.
