Announcement of successful applicants
Miro, the video Kim Soo-hyun uploaded was so different in vibe compared to the other contestants that people were split on it.
It stood out because, unlike the others, he uploaded a singing cover video. But at the same time, it also drew people who looked down on him.
[Miro <— If this chick is actually Song Queen #1, that's a massive upvote lol]
(Video of Miro's singing uploaded on The Six channel)
Who the hell said she can't sing?
LMAO half the contestants should just get beaten up tbh 😂
Not that good tho ㅇ
What is this? Miro's the one singing?
ㄴ Yup
ㄴ But the gallery kept saying she sucked tho
ㄴ Yeah, nah, yeah
Bruh how much mixing did they do on this? 😂
ㄴ They said there wasn't any mixing
Yeah but she can't do it live~
[Why's Miro acting cocky?]
LOL even Anna and Roa only uploaded highlight edits, but who does she think she is uploading a singing video? 😂
Why you so salty?
ㄴ Just ignore him, he's baiting
This dude's special trait: hardcore simp who watches Anna & Roa streams all day 😂
ㄴ Miro's the same, don't pretend she's different
[Miro <— If this dude is actually adorable, upvote ㅇㅇ]
(Video description on The Six channel under Miro's video)
Imagining Miro tearing up because people flamed her singing and then enrolling in a vocal academy to practice—if that's not adorable, massive upvote 😂😂
Isn't it normal to go to vocal lessons if you suck?
LMAO
Da King Miro
[Miro's voice really is busted OP level]
(Video of Miro's singing on The Six channel)
Heard it yesterday and been looping it nonstop.
Hmm.. is it really that good?
ㄴ I listen to a lot of covers, and it's definitely different
Why not just listen to the original tho?
I work in music and yeah, it's good ㅇㅇ
And just like that, the community was on fire again.
But after Miro's 4th audition video was uploaded, she didn't stream for two days, so the buzz quietly died down.
Two days after uploading the 4th audition video.
Since they said the results were coming out today, I turned on the stream.
[Song King Miro's Audition Result Livestream]
The audition process and results being announced feels a little fast, but I guess that's just how quickly trends shift in internet streaming culture.
As soon as I started, viewers quickly filled the room.
hiii
Goat has arrived
Why so late
What were you doing while on break?
Song King lol
"Alright, welcome back. Long time no see, right? Did you all rest well? I came back from a break too."
What did you even do to need a break?
"What did I do? Ha… didn't you guys see the singing video on The Six channel?"
You sang really well ㅇㅇ
Yeah I saw it
But what does that have to do with anything?
"Do you know how much I practiced just to do that?"
[Thank you ㅇㅇ for the 1,000 won donation!]
Be honest, wasn't it just mixing? Will I get banned if I say that?
gasp
whoa
what
oh
Mixing?
So they're saying the singing was machine-edited?
Mixing itself isn't bad, but using it to dismiss my skills? Unforgivable.
"Ha, there wasn't a single bit of mixing, okay? That was all me."
Yeah sure lol
If you were that good you'd be doing a karaoke stream—almost said it lol
Nah you did well
It hadn't even been long since I started streaming again, and already chat was trying to rile me up. My blood was boiling.
Where were all the people who praised me in the community?
"Anyway, today is the final announcement of the Celestial Project. You all voted for me, right?"
uh…
ㅇㅇ (voted for Anna instead)
This guy's name is Roa, right?
Yes, we voted for you~
(secret comment)
"Ha… why's everyone so mean."
Clicking my tongue, I started telling them what I did during break.
"I just watched movies and anime."
What movie?
Oshi no Ko is fun af
"Movies? Just random popular stuff on OTT. Oshi no Ko? Yeah, that was definitely good."
It's only one episode out, but it was the most impressive anime I've seen recently.
"The music's great too, right?"
I also know the opening song is a massive hit right now.
Isn't that a weeb anime?
Didn't you say you hate that stuff?
Did I? Can't remember, so I brushed it off.
"Ah, this one's different. And as for movies I watched…"
Listing out the OTT movies I binged, time passed quickly until The Six official channel started their livestream.
[Celestial Project, the Final Journey! Who Will Be the Glorious Winner…]
"Look at that title…"
LOL
Manager wrote that, huh
Can you even say that?
"I was saying it's a good title though?"
Covering up my slip, I entered the stream and saw a 3D map.
On the big screen, a male MC with a 3D avatar was moving around, explaining stuff passionately.
[Now, let's briefly look back at the journey of the Celestial Project…]
Seeing the 1st audition footage pop up, I quietly ended my stream and turned off the screen.
??
What's going on?
No commentary?
"Ah~ it's kinda embarrassing… just tell me when they announce the winner."
Looked like they were gonna play everything from the 1st round onward, and honestly, I was too embarrassed to watch my past self.
"How about a game instead?"
And with that, I booted up LoL.
It was a fresh account I made yesterday, just for streaming.
???
Isn't this supposed to be a result commentary?
Bruh I'm speechless now
Finally, actual gaming
Since I hadn't played games once during the auditions, chat was shocked to see me open one.
"Yep, just gonna do a bot game."
[Thank you God-tier Miro for the 10,000 won donation!]
Bruh are you seriously playing LoL during the final audition results?
"Thank you for the donation! But hey, they're not announcing it right now. A bot match is just the right timing."
? Bot game, really?
Weak
K
"I'm only level 7. Made this account yesterday."
With that, I hid the screen and logged in. After the loading screen, the basic UI popped up, showing nickname and level.
[SongKingMiro (Lv. 7)]
Now he's obsessed with 'Song King'?
Is this your first time playing LoL?
Just play a normal match
"My main account's separate, but I made this one just for streaming. Normal games take too long, so nope."
Then level up off-stream, why the hell on stream? lol
What's your main account's rank?
"Rank? Eh, I manage to live like a decent human being."
Translation: Silver 😂
Same, I'm a decent human too (Iron 2)
"Ah yes, of course~"
But I'm not like them.
I actually have a rank in the top 3%.
And lately I'd even been on a winstreak, so if things go well, I might climb even higher.
So I queued up a game, picked one of the new champions, and started a bot match.
"These skills are tough to use."
Why are you mid on a support champ?
Damn, bots are pretty good these days
Why are the bots so cracked?
"Hold on, give me a sec."
Just as I was struggling against the stronger AI bots—
Dude, it's starting
Hurry up and get in here
What are you doing
[Thank you StationeryEraserThiefMiro for the 1,000 won donation!]
This ain't the time to be gaming, bro
"Eh?"
It's already starting?
The match hasn't even hit 10 minutes yet.
"They won't lose without me, right?"
ㅇㅇㅇㅇㅇ
How would you even lose a bot match
Just get back in here already
Flustered by how fast things were moving, I closed the game window and switched to the livestream—
and sure enough, they were already announcing winners.
On the big screen above the MC's head, a cute brown-haired girl avatar with a bread hat was smiling.
[And that concludes the first interview with our first successful candidate, Anna! Now let's move on to the next winner!]
So Anna had already been introduced as the first winner, and now they were onto the second.
"Phew… thank god. Would've been awkward if I was first, right?"
LOL
Don't even dream about it 😂
You're lucky if you're fourth or fifth at best ㅇㅇ
They type stuff like that, but deep down they're all hoping I make it.
…Probably.
[Now, the second winner is…! Congratulations, Roa!]
With the MC's shout, the screen lit up with a character with shiny sky-blue hair. I clapped my hands.
"Oh, isn't that the one who sings K-pop really well?"
Oh wow, you knew?
You actually watch other contestants' streams?
Can't believe you know that
"I watch other streams pretty often, actually."
rly?
Wouldn't it be better to stream instead of watching streams?
"Excuse me, this is studying. There's a lot to learn from other contestants."
Learn what exactly??
Don't you know studying means actually applying it?
"Copying them exactly would be plagiarism. I'm going to arrange and adapt it."
Chatting like that, I kept watching as winners were announced one by one.
[And the next winner is…! Congratulations, Mile!]
But even at the third announcement, it wasn't my name.
[And the fourth winner is… drumroll… Congratulations, Maho!]
Even at the fourth, still not me.
By then, uneasiness was creeping in.
"Huh? Ah…"
You looked so relaxed, now you're nervous huh?
LOOOOOL
Just go back to LoL
Your bot game's probably still running
"Are you guys seriously laughing when it looks like I might not make it?"
Hmm…
Honestly, I wouldn't pick you either
Shame, but oh well…
These bastards… don't tell me they actually don't like me?
No, if that were true they wouldn't even be watching.
[And so, here we are…]
Time moved on regardless of my nerves. Finally, it was time to announce the fifth contestant.
'They said they'd pick 5 total, right…?'
Which meant if I wasn't chosen now, I was out.
Failing wouldn't be the end of the world, but saying it wouldn't sting would be a lie.
After all, winners and losers start on completely different footing for their future streaming careers.
Heart pounding, I clasped my hands politely.
[Ah… we've finally reached this point. Now! Let's introduce the fifth winner! Ah, this one is really entertaining.]
As the MC hyped it up, a black silhouette appeared onscreen.
[Congratulations! The fifth winner is Haru!]
A white-haired, red-eyed girl avatar appeared.
"Ah, f*ck, not me…"
The thought slipped straight out of my mouth.
ah…
sigh…
rip…
There's still a 6th tho
But it feels like this was the last one…
Even though I swore, the chat went quiet.
[Thank you God-tier Miro for the 10,000 won donation!]
It's not over till it's over
At that supportive message, I nodded.
"Right, there's still the sixth spot!"
So I stayed and clapped politely as Haru gave her tearful thank-you speech.
Even glanced at my game icon, wondering if the bot match was still running.
But as a fellow contestant, it felt like proper manners to hear all the winners out, so I held on.
When Haru's speech ended, the MC came forward again.
[And that's our fifth winner. Now, let's reveal the final contestant!]
Final?
There's still one more?
Contrary to what I'd thought—five picks—the MC declared there was a sixth winner.
And then, a familiar silhouette appeared on the giant screen.
[Congratulations! The final winner is… Miro!]
The pink-haired avatar popped up, and I clenched my fist in triumph, shouting with joy.
