Seo-joon was currently at the set of MNET watching the live show, produce 48. He was invited to watch the final episode of the show since the company was going to handle the group and had a free day for today

" Wahh almost all the seats are taken" Seo-joon commented since he was seated with Shi Jin at the top watching over everyone

" It is a popular show after all" Shi Jin commented as both og you waited for the show to start

" Hey hyung" Shi Jin hummed to Seo-joon as he was scrolling through his phone

" If the new group would be under our company, wouldn't that make you their new manager?" Shi Jin stopped scrolling realizing that their wasn't any posts of hiring new managers for the group

" Huh how come I never realized that?" He asked himself making Seo-joon chuckle

" Maybe you're getting old that you keep forgetting" Seo-joon's tease wasn't unaccounted as Shi Jin hit the top of his head 

" Pabo you're only a few years younger plus you have a lot of schedules I have to take care of so it just slipped my mind" 

" But still. It's a little weird the company hasn't announced that they were hiring managers or other stylists" Seo-joon commented rubbing the top of his head

" True but I think that would change once we know who are going to be in the group. Who knows, maybe the companies the girls are in have their own personal manager that the company would acquire" What Shi Jin shared made sense. On stage, Lee Seung-gi came out ready to start the program

Once he announced the start of the show, the stage lit up with lights and fires exciting the crowd and all the trainees of the show started dancing to the theme song of the show 'Pick Me'

" Hey hey hey" Both Seo-joon and Shi Jin were singing along to the song earning strange looks from their neighboring tables but didn't mind as they were enjoying the song. Seo-joon even joined in dancing the chorus part 

The show continues on with the first team performing and he was smiling from ear to ear the whole performance. For him it was cute and refreshing performance for the team as he sways and dances to the beat of the song but what caught his eye was the small Japanese trainee who looked cute due to her height

Seung-gi then announces the rankings of those who were 11th - 14th and Seo-joon was happy to see Chaewon be a potential member for the group and was proud to see her a step closer to her dream. Next came the second team to perform and he was clapping after their performance. He was proud to see Eunbi and Chaewon perform their best and was hoping they would both debut 

" Noona don't cry or else you'll be ugly" Seo-joon texted Soyou after the heart warming speech given by the trainees to here

" Pabo ya where are you?" Soyou texted back finding him while he texted back for her to look upwards. They exchanged glances with each other with Seo-joon chuckling at Soyou. After watching a video of their guerilla fanmeet in Japan, it was now time to announce the 12 trainees who would be part of the group and tensions were high on that night. Seo-joon was feeling nervous for Eunbi and Chaewon since he knew both of them before the show and he really wanted both of them to debut

" The trainee in 11th place is Kim Minju from Urban Works" The girls surrounded her congratulating on being on the debut group as the crowd celebrated also having achieved her dream

" The trainee in 10th place is Kim Chaewon from Woolim Entertainment" Seo-joon cheered loudly hearing Chaewon's name. He was happy for his friend to finally debut as he was the loudest in his floor
