A world where the winner takes all.

(A world where the winner takes all)

But it is not sports.

It is Universe League.

(Universe League)

Forty-two players enter the
fierce battle for their debut.

RHYTHM.

GROOVE.

BEAT.

Three teams are competing
for the one and only Prism Cup.

Who will be winning the Prism Cup?

Winning the glory and the chance to debut.

A boy who dreamed of becoming an actor...

has a new dream of becoming an idol.

I may have started late compared to others.

(Seo Jeong Woo)

But I will show you a
better me than yesterday.

My first audition in Korea.

And failure.

But...

for the precious people
who have waited for me,

I will...

take up a new challenge again.

I will prove that not giving up is winning.

Before I came to Korea,

I worked part-time all
night long to fulfill my dream.

Though it was a tough life,

I endured it by imagining myself onstage.

Right now,

I am standing before that very dream.

My dream of debuting.
I will make it come true.

From a small stage back
home in the Philippines,

with dreams bigger than ever,

I made my way to Korea, the heart of K-pop.

Standing on that glittering stage.

Just imagining it makes my heart race.

I'm ready to take on the world.

This is my destiny. And I'm going to shine.

Two auditions. One debut.

But I still have a lot to show.

Cha Woong Ki, the guy who doesn't give up.

Universe League. I will make it mine.

I admire K-pop.

Daisuke, 14 years old, from Okinawa.

My exciting first challenge in K-pop.

But I will prove that my skills
are more mature than my age.

It doesn't matter who my opponent is.

Whichever team I am
in, I will lead it to victory.

Please look forward to me
shining the most onstage.

Afraid of the survival show?

Heck no.

I'll do whatever it takes to win.

Watch me climb to the top of this game.

My time starts now.

I'm going all in.

The first step toward debut.

The first step toward debut.

It starts now.

It really starts now.

I've never stood onstage before.

I will show myself, Park Han, to the world.

(A fierce battle of the boys)

I will start with a bang.

This is a survival show.
I'm not here to goof around.

I don’t care if the Universe League...

shortens my lifespan by years.

I’ve staked everything on this show.

- Great job!
- You did an amazing job!

- It was meaningful!
- Be proud of yourself!

You did well!

(Universe League is really cruel.)

that will melt away the cold)

Yes, nice.

Gosh, he's really handsome.

(Here.)

(Turning)

(Leaving coolly after shooting a heart)

Okay, please head to the bench.

He's adorable.

(Stiff)

I was quite nervous.

Okay.

(Tense)

Here's the next player. Let's go.

JL.

(The next player appears.)

Come on.

(A cute charm, )

(along with chicness)

A chic guy. Nice.

JL? He controlled his expressions well...

and stood out the most.

Hi. I'm JL from the Philippines.

Even though I debuted
as an idol in the Philippines,

I'm really a huge fan of K-pop...

and survival shows specifically.

This is a chance that...

we never know if it will come back or not.

It's really true. I'm here,
and I'm seeing all of these.

I'm in total bliss.

(A ceremony of happiness)

(Startled)

Why are you being self-conscious?

Thank you.

(That's amazing.)

(As expected from the
world-class MC, Jay Park)

- Hi.
- Hi.

Hi.

(JL is seated.)

Let's meet the next player.

(The next global players appear.)

Sirin.

(Sirin, Nickname: Thai Ice Boy)

He's cool.

- Cool.
- Yes, sir. Good job.

Zen Zen.

(Catch my heart!)

(He got it.)

- Eito.
- Eito's cool.

Xie Yuxin.

He looks like Jaehyun from BOYNEXTDOOR.

Jin Ziming.

(The tallest with extraordinary
leg length appears.)

He's super tall.

(Tall)

His proportion is out of this world.

If only I could live with that height.

We've got players from all over the world.

Let's meet the next player.

- Who is it?
- Who will it be?

- Who?
- Who is it?

(Amazed)

(Who is the player that
made everyone cheer?)

Kenta.

(Kenta, Nickname: The
First Love from Japan)

I'm Toyota Kenta from Japan.

My nickname is The First Love from Japan.

I still lack skills.

But I promise to improve
until the league is over...

and debut, so keep watching me.

I'll do my best.

He was incredibly good-looking.

I couldn't stop admiring his beauty.

(After Kenta, the first love
who charmed everyone, )

(the next player walks in powerfully.)

(Focused)

I recognized him right away.

He was in another audition show.

I was surprised.

(The player recognized by players appears.)

Cha Woong Ki.

(Cha Woong Ki Nickname: Survival Addict)

His presence is really captivating.

Hi. I'm Cha Woong Ki born in 2002.

I was a member of TO1,

a group that debuted in 2020.

I was in several survival shows.

To make this my final audition show,

I came to Universe League.

How cool!

Is that an autograph?

Nice acting.

Cute.

I like how confident you are.

Here's the next player.

(The players continue to come onstage.)

Zhang Shuaibo.

He's cool.

(Zhang Shuaibo)

- Let's go!
- The Asian Prince.

Asian Prince.

(I'm the Asian Prince.)

Hi. My name is Zhang Shuaibo.

I feel nervous.

Slightly nervous.

I last participated in a competition...

with many people a while
ago. So it's making me nervous.

But I'm still happy.

Hi. I'm Zhang Shuaibo.

This is the second time I have
come to Korea to achieve my dream.

It took a lot of courage
for me to come here.

But since I'm here,

I will debut this time.

I will do my best.

He's cool.

(Overflowing with cuteness)

Zhang Shuaibo and I
were on the same team...

in a different audition show.

Seeing him made me really happy.

Hi.

Okay. Let's meet our next player.

(The next player appears.)

He's stunning.

Jang Kyung Ho!

- He's cool.
- The one with charisma.

Hello. I am Jang Kyung Ho.

I made my debut with a group called TOO.

(He made his debut with a
group called TOO in 2020.)

Our group came to an end last year.

(The group disbanded
after 3 years of his debut.)

It was at the start of the group.

That was when...

I felt...

the worst of what I could experience...

("Group TOO's Management Conflict
Gets Serious With Trademark Rights")

("TOO's Trademark War Leads
to New Group Name, TO1")

There were issues between companies.

Members left, and new members came in.

There were many things that
happened within the group as well.

I felt very anxious
while being in the group.

I was in a group called TO1.

I then left the group.

(Woong Ki and Kyung Ho
were in the same group.)

We always had bad results.

I could tell with the results that we get.

"We worked this hard,"

"but these are the only results we get."

I had these thoughts
since the start of my debut.

I felt anxious staying still.

(I felt anxious staying still.)

I felt anxious before I fell
asleep and when I woke up.

I felt anxious while getting
my hair and makeup done.

I had to perform, but I
teared up out of anxiety.

I started doing this at a young age.

(He felt anxious about his
unclear future at a young age.)

I think that was why...

I always had that in mind.

(He chose to leave the group.)

I am hoping for things to go well...

with this opportunity.

I have those thoughts and worries.

- Hello.
- Hello.

Hello.

- Hello.
- Hello.

Was there anyone that
you knew out of the players?

There is one that I do know.

But I don't think I have to talk about him.

I'll make no comment about him.

(I'll make no comment about him.)

We just naturally got distant.

(We just naturally got distant.)

I wouldn't say we were on bad terms.

But there is no one that I
could say that I'm close to.

I don't even have anyone's number.

A member of your former group...

- Yes.
- appeared in front of you.

What did you think about that?

Well...

"I guess he wants to
be a part of this as well."

Right.

That was all I had in mind.

(What happened between the two of them?)

Time to meet the next player. Let's go.

An Yul!

He was born in 2010?

(The cute youngest born in 2010 appears.)

- He was born in 2010?
- Oh, my gosh!

- You're 14, right?
- I was born in 2009.

- He Junjin!
- He's so cute.

Hiroto! Tough guy!

- Sexy!
- Kwon Hee Jun.

- Gosh.
- He's handsome.

There must be something on
his lips. Did you just have a meal?

Nam Do Yoon!

(Nam Do Yoon, Nickname:
3-second Jung Hae In)

Check out his confidence.

(The so-called 3-second
Jung Hae In appears.)

He's an actor.

Hello. I'm 17-year-old Nam Do Yoon.

My nickname is Three-second Jung Hae In.

When I was in elementary
school, I starred in "D.P." briefly.

I was Jung Hae In's child actor.

I resemble him when I'm seen briefly.

The nickname holds that meaning as well.

From being a child actor, I
developed a new dream...

of becoming an idol star.

I still lack a lot right now,

but It would be great if you
could show me your support.

Is there a secret move that you prepared?

Something like showing off my looks?

Like this.

(How do I look, everyone?)

Something like this.

(He checks his looks as if
the camera were a mirror.)

(Awkward)

- One strand of your hair...
- Sorry?

Is sticking out.

- Right.
- There you go.

- Thank you.
- He's so cute.

Hello.

(The clumsy Nam Do Yoon enters as well!)

It's the last player, everyone!

- It's the last player.
- It's the last player.

- There's one person left.
- Who could it be?

Let's meet the last player!

- Let's go!
- He must look amazing...

to be the last person.

(The last player finally appears
with everyone's attention.)

Chih En!

(Chih En)

You look great!

(He appears with a great presence.)

- You look amazing!
- He looks amazing.

Gosh!

Gosh, he's so handsome.

That guy was so handsome.

He looked so handsome, and he stood out.

(Save in my heart)

Hello. I'm 19-year-old Chih En.

(Smiling)

I will do my best in all the missions...

and make sure to come in first place.

I love you!

Thank you.

(Shy)

My heart is pounding.

(With Chih En as the last player, )

(all 42 players have entered.)

Boys' dream match, Universe
League. Are you ready?

(Universe League)

Welcome to Universe League,

all 42 players.

(Welcome!)

Good luck, everyone.

(Welcome!)

I will tell you how...

you can make your debut
through Universe League.

- Gosh.
- Gosh. Right away?

- I feel nervous, all of a sudden.
- I'm scared.

(The way to make their debut
through Universe League)

In Universe League, there's RHYTHM,

(RHYTHM)

GROOVE,

(GROOVE)

and BEAT.

(BEAT)

You will split into these three teams...

and compete with each other.

The winning team...

will lift up the Prism Cup...

and have the honor of making their debut.

(The winning team will win
the Prism Cup and debut.)

The rule sounded exciting.

It really felt like a sports match.

The whole team has to
survive for me to survive.

My team must win. I'm confident.

I'm confident.

The Prism Cup? It's mine.

Prism.

- Prism.
- Prism.

P, R, I, S, M.

There are five stages
that you must go through.

- What?
- I feel nervous.

(The winning team is
decided after 5 stages.)

- There are five of them.
- Five times?

There are five stages
that you must go through...

to lift the Prism Cup.

(The winning team is
decided after 5 stages.)

Today, the first stage will begin...

with the P.

It's Pick.

(The first stage, Pick)

- Gosh.
- I feel nervous.

Do we choose our teams?

With the pick of the directors,

your teams will be decided.

(Their teams will be
decided by the directors.)

- The directors will choose us.
- Right.

- Gosh.
- I feel nervous.

The players who don't get picked...

will be on the verge of elimination.

(They are unable to be in the
league if they don't get picked.)

- No way.
- This is scary.

(They are unable to be in the
league if they don't get picked.)

All right.

I will introduce to you the directors...

who will be picking you into their teams.

First,

it's TEAM BEAT!

(TEAM BEAT's director)

Drop the beat!

- Push the beat!
- Let's get it!

He's amazing.

(GOT7's main dancer)

(and solo artist)

He can do it all.

(YUGYEOM)

You're so amazing!

- Gosh!
- Gosh!

(Another director of TEAM BEAT)

He's so cool.

(Hit K-pop producer of BTS, TXT, and IU)

(EL CAPITXN)

The solo artist who displays
high-quality performances,

YUGYEOM.

K-pop hit song producer, EL CAPITXN.

(Where are they?)

(A great reaction)

Give it up for TEAM BEAT!

They look amazing.

You're amazing!

Hello, everyone.

I'm TEAM BEAT's director, YUGYEOM.

- I'm EL CAPITXN.
- It's great to see you all.

It's great to see you.

I was so surprised when
Director EL CAPITXN appeared.

He's a really hot producer these days.

("eight" by IU)

(BTS, PSY, Jung Yong Hwa, SUNMI,
Heize, NCT U, TXT, ENHYPEN, )

(PLAVE, tripleS, ZEROBASEONE, WHIB, etc.)

(The hottest producer these
days of various hit songs)

A team with a producer?

I thought it was a very precious merit.

YUGYEOM is an experienced idol star...

who has tried many different things.

I thought that he would
be able to lead us very well.

I'm really enjoying
YUGYEOM's songs these days.

I want to impress him...

and really join TEAM BEAT.

(Specialized in producing)

I will introduce the
directors of the next team.

TEAM RHYTHM!

RHYTHM!

My gosh.

(World-class performance group)

(TEN, YANGYANG)

(Amazed)

The ones who are taking over global stages,

NCT's global unit, WayV.

- Gosh.
- Hello!

(This is amazing.)

This is touching.

- Hello, this is WayV.
- Hello, this is WayV.

- Awesome!
- Gosh!

I'm TEAM RHYTHM's YANGYANG.

I'm TEAM RHYTHM's TEN.

I'm KUN, leader of WayV.

(Special Director KUN)

Awesome!

It's a super dream come true for me.

It's because TEN...

is one of my role models in dancing.

The performances that WayV showed us...

were incredible.

I think practicing under them
will be a good experience for me.

That is why I really want
to get into TEAM RHYTHM.

(Specialized in performances)

Here comes the last
director of Universe League.

- TEAM GROOVE!
- GROOVE!

GROOVE!

I don't have a clue about this team.

(Who will appear this time?)

(The one with an unrivaled
tone and amazing singing skills)

Gosh!

(The trustworthy K-pop vocalist at the top)

The representative idol vocalist,

TEAM GROOVE's director, Lee Chang Sub.

(They all get up.)

GROOVE!

Hello, I'm TEAM GROOVE's director,

Chang Sub of BTOB.
It's great to meet you all.

Hello!

Director Lee Chang Sub...

is known to be an outstanding vocalist.

I thought it would be great
to learn how to sing from him.

I had the heart of wanting to...

have my vocal skills trained by him.

I want to get a good scolding by Chang Sub.

Based on singing.

(Specialized in vocals)

(While being specialized
in different areas, )

(the directors of the three
teams gathered together.)

I'm really curious to see
which players will get picked...

by the directors.

The first stage of Prism, Pick.

The teams will be decided through a draft.

A draft?

What's a draft?

The selection of rookie
players is called a draft.

- I see.
- A draft.

(Draft)

The 42 players have been
split into 7 groups of 6...

and have prepared a performance.

(Universe League rule: The
directors will watch the performance...)

(and will select a starting
player with the First Pick...)

(after a 60-second discussion.)

A team will consist of 7 starting
players, 1 from each group.

The players who do not get
picked will head to the bench...

and be on the verge of elimination.

(Shocked)

Really?

- Gosh.
- Okay.

- No way.
- Just 21 players...

- will make it.
- That's half of the players.

The other 21 players won't get picked.

It was intense from the start.

Right. This was a survival.

I wasn't here to goof around.

We were matched up against
each other in such a cruel way.

I lived just for this dream.

I thought that I could never lose...

and that I should find my way up.

I don't want to lose my
place as a starting player.

Whatever I am asked to do,

I am ready to work hard
for it with confidence.

Is there a main position...

that the directors consider
to be important in a team?

(Curious)

I think the vibes of the
players are the most important.

It's the same for me
and my other members...

when it comes to singing or dancing.

There's always room for us to improve.

As it's something that can be improved,

I believe the charms of
a player are important.

You're talking about the
traits of becoming a star, right?

- That's right. Yes, sir.
- Okay.

(That's me.)

I will focus on the basics.

- The basics.
- The basics.

The basics and their eagerness.

- The eagerness is important.
- I will focus on them. Right.

I will look for their potential,

and as they will be dancing together,

I want to focus on their
synergy and chemistry.

I will look out for their
eyes of persistence.

I will find the ones...

who have what it takes
to work hard until the end.

The directors all have a certain
direction in their standards.

However, there is another important
rule that the directors must know.

If the First Pick is made
for the same player,

(If the First Pick is made
for the same player, )

the player will get the
right to select the team.

(the player will get the
right to select the team.)

(If the First Pick overlaps, )

(there is a chance of losing that player.)

Both the directors and players
must be focused for this draft.

Things are just about to start.

I do believe that I am talented.

I will do my best to get picked...

and mesmerize the directors.

I will do my best. Let's go!

(Coming soon)

(The 1st Pick of the 3 teams is revealed.)

(I think we will have the same player.)

(I think we have the same
player as they're all laughing.)

(A fierce competition
to recruit their players)

(We will show you everything
from SM Entertainment.)

(An intense draft)

(How will things end up?)

Where are you going?

(Do you have any popcorn? This is fun.)

All right. This is the first
performance for the draft.

These are players with great potential.

Gosh.

This group consists only
of members in their teens.

All of them?

The first group with the spirit of teens.

- Teens are precious.
- Right. They're all teens.

We'll bring them right up. Let's go!

We'll bring them right up. Let's go!

We will show you all of our young energy.

Please enjoy the performance
we worked hard for.

We will make sure to
show you our true teen spirit.

(Confident)

Let's go!

They're young!

They're really young. They're all teens?

Gosh.

They're cute.

Their heads are all so small.

They're all wearing blue.

- An Yul!
- He looks cute.

Nam Do Yoon!

You look amazing!

Park Ju Won.

He's cute.

- Cute!
- Mac!

Yeo Gangdong.

And Zen Zen.

Their cheeks are all blushing.

- In 2, 3... Hello.
- Hello.

- We are Group "THRILL RIDE!"
- Group "THRILL RIDE!"

(We are Group "THRILL RIDE!")

- "THRILL RIDE?" - Thank you.

(They prepared "THRILL RIDE" by THE BOYZ.)

- They're cute.
- You are so cute!

(How was their first
encounter with each other?)

Gosh.

(Group "THRILL RIDE's" practice room)

Hello, everyone.

- Hello.
- I'm Zen Zen.

I greeted them. You should greet them too.

I'll film you too.

(These two boys are waiting
for the other members.)

- Greet them.
- Hello.

Gosh.

(Who is this boy that is very shy?)

Feel comfortable.

Hello. I'm 19-year-old Park Ju Won.

(During the audition in Korea)

How long were you in your agency?

It has been 12 months.

- You were there for a year?
- Right.

After dreaming of becoming an idol star,

I loved dancing so much.

I have been practicing every single day.

I will work hard...

to be able to make my debut
through Universe League.

(He waits for the others
with an excited heart.)

Everyone...

- It must be him.
- No.

- Oh, hello.
- In 1, 2, 3...

- Hello!
- Hello!

Hello.

Where are you all from? Are you Korean?

Where are you from?

I'm from Gangdong-gu, Seoul.

- Gangdong-gu?
- Yes.

- My name is Yeo Gangdong.
- Oh, right.

(My name is Yeo Gangdong!)

Right.

(The last member still hasn't arrived yet.)

Should we greet him in a special way?

- Let's do something together.
- What should we do?

- Like this?
- Should we scream...

when he's around here?

- Should we?
- While being like this...

- Gosh!
- Gosh!

(The last member arrives.)

Gosh.

Hello!

Why aren't you getting up?

In 1, 2, 3...

- Hello.
- Hello.

Why aren't you getting up?

- Come on, Zen Zen!
- What was that?

How old are you?

I'm 15.

(Surprised)

- The youngest!
- The youngest!

I think our group will be fresh.

Am I wrong?

(A fresh first encounter
for Group "THRILL RIDE")

We were all teens.

We had a bright energy...

and great teamwork.

(Their practice room was full of energy.)

We'll give a bright and
happy performance...

that can showcase our teenager energy.

How refreshing.

Okay. Are you ready?

- Yes!
- Yes!

Let's go!

- Yes!
- Let's go!

- We can do this.
- One, two, three.

- Baby catch me go!
- Baby catch me go!

- "THRILL RIDE!" Let's go!
- Let's go!

I like their energy.

Let's go!

I want to be the youngest member...

who isn't outshined by the older members.

Even at school, I was on the bench.

Here, I want to be a starting
player and go to the next round.

I plan to give my all...

on Universe League so I have no regrets.

Ready? Go.

Let's go.

("THRILL RIDE" by An Yul, Mac,
Nam Do Yoon, Yeo Gangdong, Zen Zen)

Very powerful.

Nice.

He's so cute!

So good!

Very nice.

Him and the guy in the middle aren't bad.

Give it up one time for "THRILL RIDE!"

Give it up one time for "THRILL RIDE!"

So good!

They're all good.

- Thank you.
- That was so good.

They're good.

Who do you think...

The member with the 26 on his arm.

Park Ju Won.

Directors. What did you
think of Group "THRILL RIDE?"

The song, your outfits,

and the energy you exuded
really went well together.

The colors blended well together.

And the young energy...

you exuded...

made those watching it feel happy.

I liked it.

- Thank you.
- Thank you.

First,

I noticed Park Ju Won...

because of his strong energy while dancing.

- Thank you.
- It was nice to see.

I also thought Park Ju Won...

We thought the same thing.

I also thought Park Ju Won stood out a lot.

(Player Park Ju Won also
caught TEAM RHYTHM's eye.)

When you were performing,
your facial expressions...

and gestures were so natural.

It was so nice to see.

- Thank you.
- Thank you.

- Thank you.
- Thank you.

Now, this is the important part.

I'll give you 60 seconds.

(The first draft begins.)

In 60 seconds, choose your 1st Pick...

to be your starting player.

One player from each
group will be picked...

to create a starting lineup of
seven players for each team.

(The directors will choose
their 1st Pick in 60 seconds.)

If 2 teams have the same 1st Pick,

the player will get to choose the team.

(If 2 teams have the same
1st Pick, the player will choose.)

Oh, goodness.

My heart is pounding.

Please pick the player you want.

(Your 60 seconds start now.)

- No way.
- Oh, right now?

Right now?

Oh, goodness.

What should I do?

I like him.

- Visually.
- Right.

These two stand out.

- Right.
- Earlier, RHYTHM and BEAT...

I think he did a better job
with portraying the concept.

- The song...
- Right, the concept...

Time is ticking.

- Oh, my goodness.
- Gosh.

- I think everyone will choose him.
- Right?

If you look at the performance,

- he's good, - I think so.

But whether he suits the song...

That one minute of
standing there is so scary.

It must be so nerve-racking.

There are ten seconds left.

Seven, six...

(There are less than 10 seconds left.)

- But if we do that...
- Five, four,

- Hurry. Should I go with him?
- Three, two...

- Five, four, - Five, four,

- three, two, - three, two,

- one!
- one!

Your time is up.

Your time is up, everyone.

(They seriously chose their First Pick.)

Okay.

Nice.

We're doing well.

I'm curious about your decisions.

This is an interesting situation.

They prepared this performance together.

But actually, they have to
compete against the members...

they practiced with to be chosen.

You can't let your guard
down even for a moment.

Universe League is very cruel.

Oh, right. This was a survival program.

Okay. We will now reveal
the 3 teams' 1st Picks.

First, we will reveal TEAM BEAT's...

First Pick.

Yes!

Will they pick me?

If they do, I can work very hard.

I really hope they pick me.

I waited, thinking, "Please call my name."

(TEAM BEAT's First Pick...)

(Park Ju Won.)

- TEAM BEAT...
- Thank you.

Chose player Park Ju Won...

- Thank you.
- as their First Pick.

Good job.

Oh, my gosh.

We will reveal TEAM GROOVE's First Pick.

(First Pick, BEAT, Park Ju Won)

I could only see him.

Right? I think the votes will go...

to Ju Won.

(First Pick, BEAT, Park Ju Won)

(First Pick, BEAT, Park Ju Won)

(Who is TEAM GROOVE's First Pick?)

(Zen Zen)

TEAM GROOVE chose...

player Zen Zen.

Congratulations.

Okay.

The starting player...

- that TEAM GROOVE chose...
- He's handsome.

Is player Zen Zen.

I mostly paid attention to vocal ability,

and he had the pretty
voice that I was looking for.

Thank you.

Two teams have chosen different players.

Lastly, we will reveal
TEAM RHYTHM's First Pick.

(First Pick, GROOVE, Zen
Zen, BEAT, Park Ju Won)

I think it might be him.

(Will they have the same pick as
TEAM BEAT or TEAM GROOVE?)

I'm nervous.

(Will they have the same pick as
TEAM BEAT or TEAM GROOVE?)

(Or will they pick another player?)

(Park Ju Won)

TEAM RHYHM...

- also picked player Park Ju Won.
- Thank you.

Oh, no.

(It's just the first performance, )

(and TEAM RHYTHM and TEAM
BEAT already chose the same player.)

Already. Oh, no.

Thank you.

This is fun.

- Thank you.
- This isn't easy.

Oh, spicy. Okay.

RHYTHM and BEAT...

both chose you, Ju Won.

I really wanted to go to these two teams.

I'm so grateful...

that they both wanted me. Thank you.

First, player Zen Zen...

has become...

a starting player for TEAM GROOVE.

Please go to the team
seat right away, Zen Zen.

(Oh, my.)

GROOVE. It's time to groove.

Congratulations, Zen Zen.

Let's do a wi-fi handshake. Okay.

(Jealous)

I'm so happy. I feel so happy.

Director...

Lee Chang Sub, now that I'm on TEAM GROOVE,

I'll work even harder and do well.

Thank you.

(TEAM GROOVE has
drafted its first starting player.)

- The greatest happiness.
- Let's wear that too.

Let's wear that too.

If 2 teams have the same 1st Pick,

the player...

- gets to pick his team.
- Spicy.

Oh, my.

We will reveal player Park Ju Won's...

(Which team will player Park Ju Won pick?)

decision!

I will...

(I will...)

teach you how to have a long career...

as much as possible
and teach you everything...

about basic techniques and such,

so please come to our team.

Thank you.

(I can't lose to that.)

Our team...

will teach you the tips...

on showing off your
personal charms onstage.

And we've done both group...

and solo activities.

We'll teach you many things,

so please believe in us.

I'll say something since
I didn't get to speak.

Okay.

(So happy)

What I want to say is...

You know what songs I've produced,

right?

Yes, I do.

("eight" by IU, "Take Two" by
BTS, "Stay Alive" by Jungkook)

("We don't talk together" by
Heize, "Kangaroo" by NCT U)

("Girls Never Die" by tripleS,
"Honestly..." by Eric Nam, etc.)

That's all.

- Hold on.
- Hold on.

- You can't lose, NCT and WayV!
- Yes, let's go.

One second.

I'll show you how we practice at SM.

You can use HYBE's practice rooms here.

I'll take you to HYBE's practice rooms.

- This is insane.
- Seriously.

What? I want to go! What about me?

Oh, gosh.

I can't believe I'm seeing a
fight between SM and HYBE here.

- Oh, my.
- This is insane.

Spicy.

This is just the first performance,
and it's so intense. Oh, no.

Okay, we will...

hear...

player Park Ju Won's...

decision.

(YUGYEOM and EL
CAPITXN's TEAM BEAT versus...)

(TEN and YANGYANG's TEAM RHYTHM)

The team I want to go to...

(Which team will Park Ju Won choose?)

is TEAM RHYTHM.

(Park Ju Won's decision)

TEAM RHYTHM.

(Welcome to RHYTHM.)

- Welcome.
- Of course. Nice.

Welcome.

TEAM RHYTHM.

(Oh, no!)

Gosh!

(TEAM BEAT didn't get its First Pick.)

Please go to the team seat right away.

I really want to do well...

with my performance,

and I want to learn a lot.

I thought I could learn a
lot about those things...

from TEN and YANGYANG.

That's why I wanted to go to their team.

- Oh, my gosh.
- Very good.

(Draft Starting Lineup: Park Ju Won)

- Congratulations.
- It's a bummer.

(Park Ju Won)

(TEAM RHYTHM's first starting player)

You lost your player, TEAM
BEAT. How do you feel?

It doesn't feel great, to
be honest. Oh, goodness.

But still.

Please tell us your Second
Pick, BEAT directors.

(Revealing TEAM BEAT's Second Pick)

(Which player will get
to take this last chance?)

An Yul.

(TEAM BEAT's starting player, An Yul)

- Thank you.
- The Second Pick is An Yul.

Congratulations, An Yul.

Nice. He's a good singer.

- Nice.
- Nice!

(TEAM BEAT drafts An
Yul, the youngest player.)

- Good job.
- Thank you.

Good job.

Should we do a fist bump?

(An Yul takes a starting
player spot as the Second Pick.)

- Yes.
- Good job.

(An Yul takes a starting
player spot as the Second Pick.)

- I'm so emotional. I'm tearing up.
- I think I'm tearing up too.

I was so happy that I became...

TEAM BEAT's first starting player.

Oh, my. I've already made it halfway.

(Draft Starting Lineup:)

(An Yul)

The three remaining players,

please return to the bench
with the other participants.

Good work.

- Thank you.
- Thank you.

Good work.

What will happen to me now?

I could go home like
this. I was really worried.

I felt a bit down.

I felt really sad, actually,

because I'm doing my best, but still,

it wasn't enough to impress the judges.

I wanted to go home
instead of going to the bench.

I was so sad.

(The different fates...)

(of those in the starting
lineup and those on the bench)

Oh, no. This is what happened?

- They take three, and it's over.
- Right.

So we realized...

that not everyone in the group
could go down the same path.

I thought they might be...

testing our mental resilience.

(They ended up in different
places after just one performance.)

We will continue with the draft stage.

I want to see him in
person. He's so good-looking.

He does really stand out.

He's so good-looking.

(Checking his name)

Okay. Please come out, players.

What?

- You're so cool.
- They're so cool.

- Oh, my.
- Oh, my.

- Oh, my.
- Gosh.

They're so cool.

- He's Chih En, right?
- Originally...

So handsome.

His face is so small. He's handsome.

He's handsome.

(This boy caught everyone's attention.)

In August, 2021, I came
here for the 1st time.

- To Korea?
- Yes.

(What kind of idol does
Chih En dream of becoming?)

I used to get energy...

from watching K-pop.

If I get to debut,

I want to become an artist...

who can give people energy.

I'm not a perfect artist yet.

I know I need to improve on
both my dancing and singing,

so I put in a lot of effort
to find my own charms.

So people can...

Oh, gosh.

Oh, gosh.

So people can fall for me.

(Feeling shy about saying it)

I want to be that kind of idol.

(Shy)

I'm doing...

(Shy)

I'm doing my best.

So I would...

appreciate it if you looked forward to me.

Chih En.

Kairi.

Eito. Bae Jae Ho.

Kim Joo Hyoung.

And Sirin, everyone.

- Two, three. Hello!
- Hello!

We're Universe League,

- Group "S-Class!" - Group "S-Class!"

- Group "S-Class!" - Group "S-Class!"

(Shaking)

We are in your care.

(They're cute.)

Gosh. "S-Class" by Stray Kids is difficult.

Energy is our strength.

This is our introduction!

- We're special!
- We're special!

Let's go!

- My goodness.
- Let's go.

Universe League, are you ready?

I want to show you my
infinite potential. Yes.

I’ll show you all of my
potential in this stage.

They're cool.

Ready? Go.

("S-Class" by Bae Jae Ho, Chih
En, Eito, Kairi, Kim Joo Hyoung, Sirin)

What was that?

Their live performance is so good!

My goodness. They're good.

Hey!

Hey!

They're so good.

My goodness.

This is difficult.

I like him.

Yes, he's good.

- Thank you!
- Thank you!

- Thank you!
- Thank you!

He can be the center.

Directors, how was the performance?

Watching a bright and
cheerful performance earlier,

and now seeing a powerful stage,

the contrast made it
feel even more intense.

Everyone is good at live performance.

He's right.

So...

I think it would be difficult
to choose from this group.

(Deeply moved)

- Thank you!
- Thank you!

(They are praised for their stable vocals.)

(Envious)

On this stage, Sirin...

Did I pronounce it correctly? Yes.

It was obvious that you had great talent.

Even though it was a group choreography,

you fully showcased your own charm.

- You were cool.
- Thank you.

- Thank you.
- Thank you!

- Thank you.
- Thank you!

Surprisingly, it was my first time...

seeing Chih En.

And I found myself constantly drawn to him.

He was...

(Grinning)

- I found myself constantly drawn...
- We cross paths again.

Why do we have the same taste?

(TEAM BEAT was interested in one person.)

Chih En.

(TEAM BEAT was interested in one person.)

He's the third person there, right?

Yes, you're right.

(His First Pick in his heart, )

(Chih En)

It's...

your aura.

Or maybe, it’s your
star quality. I'm not sure.

But you constantly had my attention.

Thank you.

(Feeling nervous)

I'll give you 60 seconds from now.

Directors, within one minute,

choose a First Pick starting player.

(The directors will choose
their 1st Pick in 60 seconds.)

If two teams choose the same person,

the decision of which team
to join will be up to the player.

Gosh.

This is the most nerve-racking part.

Please pick your starting players.

I'll give you 60 seconds.

- This isn't easy.
- I don't know about this.

- But we need to choose wisely.
- But...

But he is...

- Right.
- But I think...

he was more visible.

Because these two are similar.

Their vibes are.

(Their First Picks are different.)

- This is driving me crazy.
- Please pick...

- your starting players.
- This is...

Shall we try to pick him?

(Yes.)

- This person? Okay.
- Yes.

- We should just try first.
- Okay.

Okay.

(His eyes look anxious even
though he sounded brave.)

(TEAM GROOVE looks peaceful.)

(Staring intently)

(Who is he looking at?)

(The intense deliberation
felt through his hands)

My heartbeat...

I could hear my own heartbeat.

I wished my name to be called.

Everyone. The time to
choose is almost over.

Five, four, three, two, one!

(Nomination complete)

The First Pick nomination is completed.

- The First Pick nomination...
- I think we chose the same person.

Is completed.

Directors, do you think...

you chose the same First Pick again?

- Yes.
- Oh, is that so?

I think so too.

(Did they choose the
same First Pick again?)

- I see.
- Oh, is that so?

This will be fun.

I don't think I chose the same person.

(Lee Chang Sub)

(His taste is unique.)

- TEAM GROOVE is definite.
- Yes.

Chang Sub is definite.

Yes, I don't think I chose
the same person as them.

Okay. Now, we'll reveal...

the results.

He keeps looking at us.

(Is this a green light?)

We'll reveal TEAM BEAT's First Pick.

(TEAM BEAT reveals its First Pick.)

(Chih En)

TEAM BEAT chose Chih En!

I knew it.

Chih En!

Yes, sir.

We'll reveal TEAM GROOVE's First Pick.

(Who did TEAM GROOVE choose?)

(First Pick, BEAT, Chih En)

(Kim Joo Hyoung)

Kim Joo Hyoung is picked.

Congratulations.

(First Pick, GROOVE, Kim
Joo Hyoung, BEAT, Chih En)

We didn't cross paths.

- I knew he would pick differently.
- Kim Joo Hyoung...

He's a great dancer.

He has a good voice too.
That's why I chose him.

Congratulations.

Now, this is the highlight.

We'll check the last First Pick.

We'll reveal TEAM RHYTHM's First Pick.

(First Pick, GROOVE, Kim
Joo Hyoung, BEAT, Chih En)

(Sirin was praised for
his good expression.)

(Chih En grabbed attention
from the start and throughout.)

(Kim Joo Hyoung was picked by TEAM GROOVE.)

Who did they choose?

(Sirin)

- TEAM RHYTHM picked...
- Thank you.

Sirin as their starting
player. Congratulations.

(They picked Sirin who was
praised highly by YANGYANG.)

Congratulations.

(Very satisfied)

All three teams successfully...

scouted their starting player.

Yes.

(Draft Starting Lineup:
Zen Zen, Kim Joo Hyoung)

(Draft Starting Lineup: An Yul, Chih En)

Welcome.

(Chih En)

Come on.

You're good-looking.

- Good work. Yes.
- Thank you.

- They're like our kids already.
- Exactly.

- I guess this is how fathers feel.
- Right.

- Nice to meet you.
- Nice to meet you.

- Hello.
- Hello.

(Sirin: Hello.)

The second starting player spots...

are filled for all teams.

(The second draft ended peacefully.)

Nice to meet you.

I think this is the start, and not the end.

I want to improve more...

and secure my seat as a starting player...

until my debut.

(Unlike the starting players
thinking about their future, )

(the players on the bench only
have regrets of not doing better.)

(Two different atmospheres in one area)

This group's song itself is its concept.

(Concept)

- What is it?
- So...

It's "Love Shot" by EXO.

- "Love Shot!" - My goodness.

"Love Shot!"

("Love Shot" by EXO: A song
that emphasizes powerful...)

(and captivating charms
with a restrained sexiness.)

(I know this song very well.)

EXO is your senior.
You'll know this song well.

It's quite sexy.

- Sexy?
- It's sexy.

It's sexy and powerful.

- Powerful.
- Yes.

First of all, EXO members...

performed this song very
well, so it's difficult to remake it.

- Yes.
- He's right.

So I'm worried, but I hope they do well.

I'm looking forward to
seeing their performance.

Yes, sir.

Group "Love Shot" that will
showcase their sexiness in suits...

with model-like physiques.

Let's see them now!

I'll debut...

and become the Asian Prince.

Especially in choreography.

I've spent so much time
on it that I can't do bad.

I'll show you.

(Less talk, more action.
(I’ll prove it onstage.)

- Let's go.
- Yes!

(They make a powerful
entrance in sharp suits.)

They look amazing.

Oh, suits.

You look amazing.

"Love Shot" is famous for the suit.

My goodness. The white uniform.

- They're so tall.
- They look amazing.

Being tall makes it feel different.

- You look amazing.
- Let's go!

(Looking carefully)

Zhang Shuaibo.

Oh, okay.

Li Zhiwei!

Park Ji Hoon.

Hiroto.

Jin Ziming.

Jang Kyung Ho.

He did a lot of things too.

Universe League, are you ready?

- Yes!
- Yes!

Two, three. We got this!

- "Love Shot!" - "Love Shot!"

I'll do my best and debut.

I'm going to make it. I can do it.

The results will be good.

I feel weird.

Ready? Go.

("Love Shot" by Hiroto, Li Zhiwei,
Zhang Shuaibo, Jang Kyung Ho, )

(Park Ji Hoon, Jin Zi Ming)

- Yes!
- Zhang Shuaibo!

They were Group "Love Shot."

- "Love Shot." - Thank you!

(The directors with unreadable expressions)

(Reading the room)

Oh, gosh.

(Reading the room)

I think everyone is shocked.

Directors, how was the performance?

Well...

(Director TEN is speechless.)

I think "Love Shot" has...

the potential to craft...

a flashy stage when used effectively.

So I was looking forward to this stage.

But...

this performance feels slightly lacking.

(Gulping)

At the start, it had an impact,

and it was dynamic, which was good.

But I felt that the dynamics
slowly disappeared toward the end.

(The opening was impactful and intense.)

(But as the performance went on, )

(the movements became slightly offbeat, )

(the choreography didn’t quite match, )

(and the exaggerated facial expressions...)

(made the energy fade, turning
the stage increasingly dull.)

I think we all felt the same.

The performance needs to keep us focused.

But it felt like each player
was focused on his own parts.

You went, "Now, it's
time for the dance break."

I couldn't feel any emotions.

That's how we felt.

Yes. That's it.

(The first harsh critique
heard during the draft stage.)

It's my responsibility that
our team received criticism.

As I was the leader,

I couldn't show or appeal...

my own charms.

It ended just like that, highlighting
the group's weaknesses.

That was the most stressful part.

Oh, okay. So today...

This stage received some criticism.

Do you still have players
that you want to pick despite it?

Yes.

- You do?
- Yes.

- Someone did draw my attention.
- I see.

I would need to think further.

I'll give you all one minute from now.

I'll give you 60 seconds.

Please nominate your players.

(It's him, right?)

(Yes.)

(As soon as the countdown starts, )

Nice.

(two teams choose their First Pick.)

(TEAM BEAT is still thinking.)

- It was...
- But he grabs attention too.

Yes.

His vocals weren't bad.

(Two players had a lot of vocal parts.)

Honestly, this player...

lacks a bit of star quality.

Then shall we go with him?

- But he's also...
- This is hard.

I'd rather...

- listen to his vocals more.
- Six, five,

- Oh, no.
- four, three,

- Him? No, let's choose him.
- two, one!

Everyone, the time is up.

- Now, - This is too difficult.

- It's okay.
- let's see who they picked.

I'm curious about their decision.

Name one charm about
the player of your choice.

He knew where to keep
his gaze while performing.

He knew where to keep his gaze? Okay.

There's something
prudent about his behavior.

He seems prudent.

I don't know anything about him
other than that he's good-looking.

- He's good-looking.
- Gosh.

Okay. Then,

let us see the result.

Let us reveal TEAM GROOVE's First Pick.

There were no words that
could describe my feelings.

I had never felt that nervous before...

in my life.

I didn't receive any positive feedback,

so all I could do was pray.

(Who is TEAM GROOVE's First Pick?)

(Jang Kyung Ho)

(First Pick, GROOVE, Jang Kyung Ho)

TEAM GROOVE chose...

- Jang Kyung Ho. Congratulations.
- Thank you.

(First Pick, GROOVE, Jang Kyung Ho)

There seemed to be weight
to the way he carried himself.

He's older than the others as well,

so I thought my team...

would function well with
him as the eldest of the group.

That's why I chose him.

Okay, next.

We'll reveal the First
Pick for TEAM RHYTHM.

(TEAM RHYTHM chose someone...)

(who knew where to keep
his gaze while performing.)

(Will their choice be the
same as TEAM GROOVE's?)

(Zhang Shuaibo)

(First Pick, GROOVE, Jang Kyung Ho)

TEAM RHYTHM chooses...

Zhang Shuaibo. Congratulations.

(Zhang Shuaibo won over TEAM RHYTHM...)

(with the way he held his gaze onstage.)

Zhang Shuaibo!

(Smirking)

The two teams chose different players.

Lastly, let's check the First
Pick for TEAM BEAT. Let's go.

(They pondered until the very last second.)

(Their First Pick is someone
who is good-looking.)

Let's check the First Pick
for TEAM BEAT. Let's go.

(Nervous for some reason)

(Please don't pick the player I chose.)

(Who is TEAM BEAT's First Pick?)

(Park Ji Hun)

(First Pick, RHYTHM, Zhang
Shuaibo, GROOVE, Jang Kyung Ho)

Gosh. TEAM BEAT chooses...

Park Ji Hun. Congratulations.

Ji Hun.

The 1st round of drafts has
ended, and all 3 teams were able...

to welcome their First Picks.

- Is he good-looking?
- Those chosen...

- will sit with their teammates.
- I'm suddenly on the fence.

I didn't expect it at all.

It felt...

really good,

but I didn't know if I had
the right to be chosen.

I only thought about
working harder from here.

(Draft Starting Lineup: Park Ji Hun)

(Draft Starting Lineup: Jang Kyung Ho)

(Draft Starting Lineup: Zhang Shuaibo)

(Zhang Shuaibo runs to the team's dugout)

- Hi.
- Hi. Thank you.

Good luck.

- I'm over the moon.
- You were amazing.

Good job.

- Bring it in. Let's work hard.
- Thank you.

- Thank you.
- You did great.

- Can I get a fist bump too?
- You did a good job.

- Good job, guys.
- Thank you.

(He finally gets to wear the team jersey.)

It gave me hope that I could get up...

on the stage again.

I have a greater desire to debut.

(I'm more determined than ever to debut.)

I won't be satisfied with
what I accomplished today.

I will keep this spot...

and keep on moving up the ladder.

Each team has three starting players.

There are now only four slots left...

in each team.

We will now continue...

today's cutthroat draft.

I will come out on top, no matter what.

I will debut, so watch me do it.

I will bring down the
Universe League stage.

- I can't wait.
- Nice!

Looking good.

Look how handsome he is.
Wait, they're all handsome.

You all look great.

It's my goal to be
known as an all-rounder...

and be acknowledged by everyone.

I will debut, so watch me do it.

Kenta.

Gosh.

Kwon Hee Jun.

Kim Dae Yun.

Keum Jin Ho.

Royce.

- And Kim Gi Joong.
- Kim Gi Joong.

They're dressed in military green.

Hello, I'm Sergeant Kim.

(Kim Dae Yun, Nickname: Sergeant Kim)

I was only recently
discharged from the military.

Ever since I was a kid,
I idolized K-pop idols.

Thank you for granting me
this incredible opportunity.

- You've completed your service?
- Yes.

It's only been two weeks.

That must be why your hair is still short.

- Yes.
- I see.

To be honest, I consider
myself to have been reborn...

after my time in the military.

I'll work hard, thinking
that it's do or die for me.

(He was reborn after
serving in the military.)

Can you face the camera?

(Seeing how he looks on camera)

- Are you trying to lose weight?
- Yes, I'm on it.

Is that so?

I gained a lot of weight
while in the military.

You were only discharged in June.

Right.

I just weighed myself, and it said 81kg.

I'll drop down to 74.

- We met at the meeting.
- That's right.

(It's good to see you.)

- I didn't expect this.
- Neither did I.

- Salute.
- Hold on.

(Salute)

I also completed my military service.

(They didn't expect to
have that in common!)

(The three men entered the competition...)

(to chase their dreams after
completing their military service.)

I am here to compete,

thinking that this is my last chance,

so I'll work until my body breaks.

It's been three years
since I performed onstage.

I wanted to show them
how much I've improved.

I'll perform with the determination...

to go to the military
if I don't get to debut.

- Are you ready?
- Yes!

- Go for it.
- Let's do this.

Let's go.

Ready?

Go.

("BOOMERANG" by Kenta, Keum Jin Ho, )

(Kim Dae Yun, Kim Gi
Joong, Kwon Hee Jun, Royce)

Yes, sir. That was Group "BOOMERANG."

And now...

Yes, sir. That was Group "BOOMERANG."

And now...

This is a tough one.

(They're panting harder than anyone else.)

(They're panting harder than anyone else.)

In my opinion, this
performance demonstrated...

how your experience could work against you.

You were losing your cool,

and there was too much power.

With confidence and experience,

we're able to understand...

and control ourselves when performing.

However, I believe
you took it a bit too far.

You hit every move too hard,

which was why the moves...

weren't to the beat.

The energy level was
constantly at 100 percent,

so if you were to perform the entire song,

you would've had to give up midway.

- What should we do?
- Experience...

(Pondering)

I wanted to make an impression,

and leaving an impression
was all we thought about.

That had us going over the top,

which probably hurt us.

I thought about how I lacked.

It was my first time performing on a stage,

so I wasn't able to relax.

I told myself not to get my hopes up.

Let us reveal the First
Pick for TEAM GROOVE.

(Who did TEAM GROOVE
choose as its First Pick?)

(Who did TEAM GROOVE
choose as its First Pick?)

(Kenta)

(First Pick, GROOVE, Kenta)

Gosh. TEAM GROOVE...

chose Kenta to join the team.

Congratulations.

(First Pick, GROOVE, Kenta)

I could only see him.

I guess he has a face that I like.

His build is quite manly as well.

Here's the First Pick for TEAM BEAT.

(Keum Jin Ho)

- Thank you.
- TEAM BEAT chooses...

Keum Jin Ho. Congratulations.

(First Pick, GROOVE,
Kenta, BEAT, Keum Jin Ho)

He stood out.

The 2 teams chose 2 different players.

Lastly, let us see the First
Pick for TEAM RHYTHM.

(Who's the First Pick for TEAM RHYTHM?)

(Royce)

Gosh. Thank you so much.

(First Pick, RHYTHM, Royce)

He was an all-rounder.

He was a decent dancer and singer.

That's someone we needed on our team.

(Draft Starting Lineup: Royce)

(Draft Starting Lineup: Kenta)

(Draft Starting Lineup: Keum Jin Ho)

- What a relief.
- Thanks.

(What a relief.)

I'll work harder to be
a better performer...

and end up debuting.

(The 3 ex-soldiers are back on the bench.)

I could've done better.

The result really hurt me.

I didn't know I was that invisible.

"Yes, this is a survival show."

It finally hit me that I was
competing in a survival show...

and that it was cruel.

We'll take a 30-minute break.

- Good job, everyone.
- Good job.

(Celebrating being picked with a song)

(A blue spark will fly on your beat)

Are you Kang...

- I'm Kim Joo Hyoung.
- Kim Joo Hyoung.

Be honest with me.

Which team did you want to join?

Me?

(Taken aback)

I... TEAM BEAT.

- Same here.
- Really?

- I don't really mind, though.
- Yes, exactly.

- Hello.
- Hi.

Can I ask how old you are?

- Sorry?
- How old are you?

My age?

- Are you 22?
- Yes.

I'm 19, and he's 16.

Yes, I'm 16.

(Laughing)

No way.

(Things are awkward since
it's day 1 as teammates.)

(We'll slowly get to know each other.)

I want to go to the Jay Park team.

(Since he's on the bench
and not on any team)

Jay Park's team is named Universe League.

We are the best.

(The birth of a new team?)

I'd give anything to
sit up there with them.

(They're still waiting to perform.)

They don't have...

- to be worried anymore.
- Tell me about it.

(Those who haven't
performed yet are still nervous.)

Is "little" better or
should I pronounce it "lil'?"

- Lil'? Little?
- Little. Sure.

What should I wear?

Let me choose one

Black is so simple,
matching colors stand out

(Nationality doesn't matter when
it comes to advice for the stage.)

- Right.
- What's better?

- "Little." - "Little?"

I want to sit there.

(Listening)

Join TEAM BEAT.

(Pitching his team)

I'll write you a good song.

(Amazed)

That's so cool.

We'll resume the shoot.

Gosh, I'm nervous.

(Which group will perform next?)

RHYTHM and BEAT.

It seems as though...

we should be choosing
the team we want to join.

That's right.

However, what matters
more is our personal color.

Hold on. Who here has warm undertones?

- Who has cool undertones?
- Me.

Do you have a cool undertone?

What's your favorite color?

I want the best color.

Daisuke, take a seat.

Yes, sit.

- Daisuke, take a seat.
- Sit.

This is how they determine
your personal color.

Do you see the difference?

Cha Woong Ki.

Even though we were
on set, he talked a lot...

so that it wouldn't be awkward for us.

I was able to learn how friendly he was.

Guys, let's... What is it again?

You need to show off
in front of the camera.

Think that the camera
should only be on you.

When you see a camera,
look straight into it.

That will guarantee a lot of airtime.

Hey, there.

I don’t care if the Universe League...

shortens my lifespan by years.

I'm doing my best and giving it my all.

I want to show people...

that working hard can lead to success.

I know I can manage
whatever is thrown at me.

I'll do my best.

I think I can come out on top.

Yes!

- Let's do this.
- You've got this.

Looking fresh, boys!

- They're in school uniforms.
- It's young and fresh.

- They look like students.
- Yes, students.

They look adorable.

- That's cute.
- I know.

They're like baby chicks.

- They're like cute baby chicks.
- Right. In 2, 3.

He's 14.

(Who's the cute boy
that is like a baby chick?)

Daisuke.

He was just so adorable.

Daisuke is cute when he smiles.

Daisuke's my bias.

Daisuke, I like you.

Sorry about that.

Hello, I'm Daisuke.

I may be young, but I will show you...

how confident and powerful
this 14-year-old can be.

Guys, show me your love.

Bye.

Daisuke.

- He's adorable.
- He's so cute.

Cha Woong Ki.

Go, Woong Ki.

Xie Yuxin.

- Nice.
- Ayumu.

- He's cute too.
- Kang Jun Hyuk.

- Seo Jeong Woo.
- Look how handsome he is!

He's really good-looking.

Jeong Woo... That face of his.

He's pretty.

(A boy with a pretty smile
who catches your attention)

Hello, I'm Seo Jeong Woo.

How old are you?

I'm on the older side.

- Really?
- Yes.

I thought you were in high school.

- No way.
- I mean that.

- I'm 24.
- Really? No way.

(His adorable smile makes
you forget about his age!)

I've been a trainee...

- for three weeks.
- What?

(The rookie trainee is still
awkward in front of the camera.)

I have no experience being a trainee,

so I'm worried the most
about my level of talent.

I just hope I don't bring the others down.

I can confidently say I can
give it everything I have.

(I can confidently say I can
give it everything I have.)

(Today will be the
beginning of his new dream.)

Let us watch the next performance.

- Universe League, are you ready?
- Yes!

Go, Woong Ki!

- All right.
- Let's go.

Check this out. Daisuke has a solo dance.

Is that so? He's dancing solo?

Go!

- Go, Woong Ki!
- Good luck.

The fiery boy Daisuke will burn hot.

I have to do my best to
survive in this competition.

It's do or die for me.

I'll show you I'm serious.

Ready? Go.

("Replay" by Ayumu,
Cha Woong Ki, Daisuke, )

(Kang Jun Hyuk, Seo Jeong Woo, Xie Yuxin)

I haven't heard this song in a while.

Nice.

I like it.

He's adorable.

They're adorable.

They have good teamwork.

This team is amazing.

Who's that in the center?

Nice.

"Replay."

They're even prepared for the ending.

Oh, what?

Very good.

Cha Woong Ki did a good job.

They're good.

Yes, sir. This was Group "Replay."

(What will the judges say?)

When you first began...

the choreography,

it was incredible.

In terms of the choreography,

you had good teamwork and chemistry.

I enjoyed watching your performance.

The girls will love it.

Thank you.

It's a bummer that there are no girls here.

I know.

We only have boys here.

(The boys liked it too.)

Chang Sub, any player you have an eye on?

I have one.

- You do?
- Yes.

He's my only pick.

Only pick?

Only pick?

I hope we don't overlap.

In terms of the choreography...

Now, you have 60 seconds.

Pick your nominees.

It's happening again.

This is hard.

- Look.
- Okay.

I picked two. But what if...

It might overlap, right?

He was overwhelming.

Yes, from the start,

he stood out.

He knows that he's cute.

Yes. And that can be an advantage.

While I was waiting for their choice,

I thought about how I fell.

I was nervous that I wouldn't get chosen.

I can never guess.

(TEAM GROOVE goes with its only pick.)

(TEAM BEAT also quickly makes its choice.)

I hope we choose him.

Why does a minute feel so short?

Five, four,

three, two,

one.

Can you give us ten more seconds?

- Ten seconds?
- Yes.

(No way.)

No. Never.

- You can't change.
- Sorry.

- It's so hard.
- It's hard?

(Time's up. All three
teams made their choices.)

That's Universe League for you.

That's Universe League.

Then let's reveal TEAM BEAT's First Pick.

(Revealing TEAM BEAT's First Pick)

I want to join TEAM BEAT.

- Get closer.
- I want TEAM BEAT.

(Cha Woong Ki chose TEAM BEAT.)

- Come here.
- Because...

when I learned to dance,

I started with GOT7's songs.

It feels like they're my first step.

So I choose TEAM BEAT.

- BEAT.
- BEAT.

(Will TEAM BEAT choose him as he wishes?)

(Cha Woong Ki)

- TEAM BEAT chose...
- Thank you.

Cha Woong Ki.

(First Pick, BEAT, Cha Woong Ki)

Thank you.

(TEAM BEAT chose Cha Woong Ki.)

If you're that thankful, come to us.

(That's right.)

Next, let's reveal TEAM GROOVE's...

First Pick.

(First Pick, BEAT, Cha Woong Ki)

(First Pick, BEAT, Cha Woong Ki)

I hope there's a spot for me.

(Seo Jeong Woo)

TEAM GROOVE chose Seo Jeong Woo.

Congratulations.

(First Pick, GROOVE, Seo Jeong Woo)

His boyish image.

I came to think that once
he gets used to the camera,

he'll become even cuter.

- What's your wish?
- If you had to choose.

I'll have to go where I'm accepted,

but my wish is to sing better.

GROOVE?

GROOVE.

(Seo Jeong Woo chose TEAM GROOVE.)

Congratulations.

(Director Chang Sub and I connected.)

I hope no one overlapped.

This is really hard.

Two teams chose different players.

Lastly, let's reveal TEAM
RHYTHM's First Pick.

(Revealing TEAM RHYTHM's First Pick)

(First Pick, GROOVE, Seo
Jeong Woo, BEAT, Cha Woong Ki)

(Will their First Pick overlap?)

(Or will it be a new player?)

(First Pick, GROOVE, Seo
Jeong Woo, BEAT, Cha Woong Ki)

(Daisuke)

(Daisuke)

TEAM RHYTHM chose Daisuke.

- Congratulations.
- Don't cry.

Don't cry.

(First Pick, RHYTHM, Daisuke)

It's okay.

Why are you crying?

(Bursting into tears due to anxiety)

It's okay.

Is there a reason?

I wanted to join TEAM RHYTHM so badly.

You wanted it so badly, and
you're happy that you made it?

- Yes.
- They're tears of joy.

- Yes, I'm so happy.
- Okay.

- It breaks my heart.
- Why are you crying?

(He's cute.)

I chose Daisuke because...

you slipped while dancing, right?

Oh, yes. I saw it too.

(He continued performing
firmly even after the mistake.)

Yet, you continued...

without showing it.

I like professionals.

(Daisuke caught Director TEN's attention.)

Still, you're chosen...

- by the team you wanted.
- Good luck.

Good luck.

(Both directors and players
connected in this draft.)

All three teams succeeded...

in scouting the players they wanted!

(Both directors and players
connected in this draft.)

(Draft Starting Lineup: Daisuke)

(Draft Starting Lineup: Seo Jeong Woo)

(Draft Starting Lineup: Cha Woong Ki)

Directors, focus on this team.

Korea, Japan, China, Thailand,

and even the Philippines.

National players who
represent the five countries...

are all on this team.

- Oh, so global.
- That really is global.

I have someone in mind.

- Already?
- Yes.

- How?
- It's just my feeling.

Your feeling?

KUN also has a feeling.

- You too?
- He said...

we should watch this person.

When I saw him, he caught my attention.

He has a good hunch.

(Who is Special Director KUN eyeing?)

We have someone in mind too.

But we won't know for sure
until we watch his performance.

Right. It's the 1st time
all 3 teams have said that.

I know.

I'm afraid we might overlap.

What happens if we all overlap?

- What?
- What happens if we all overlap?

- If that happens...
- It's going to be fun.

- Right.
- How is that possible?

Let's try overlapping.

I joined Universe League
to become a K-pop idol.

I came to Korea to break my own frame.

To take on new challenges.

(6 players enter the
stage with determination.)

Come on.

That's a cute outfit.

That's cute.

They're so cute.

So cute.

Kim Dong Yun.

He's cute.

- He's wearing a backpack.
- I want to wear a backpack too.

Yuito.

JL.

JL.

(Are the directors interested in JL?)

Park Yeon Jun.

James.

Oh, James.

He Junjin.

They're all wearing different colors.

(They're all from different countries.)

(Applicants from 75 countries)

(Numerous applicants gathered from
around the world to become an idol.)

- Hello.
- Hello.

Hello. My name is He Junjin.

I'm from China.

I'm 19 years old.

(Hitting)

I'll hit the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd bases,

and come home in Universe League.

Please look forward to it. Thank you.

Hello. I'm Yuito.

I'm here to achieve my dream...

of becoming a K-pop idol.

(In-person audition in Thailand)

(In-person audition in the Philippines)

Beautiful love

(If I get to be with you
under the same sky)

(6 players gathered with the same goal.)

The one in the colorful
sweater can really sing.

- We can do it.
- Okay.

Hello, world. This is Universe Boy.

- Let's go.
- Nice energy.

I like their energy.

Universe League, are you ready?

- Yes!
- Yes!

(Good luck!)

- Okay.
- Let's go.

(The players get ready to perform.)

I'll show you with the
result instead of words.

I can make it to the
First Pick of the mentors.

I'll pull it off big time onstage...

and become the starting player.

Let's go.

Ready?

Go.

("One and Only" by He Junjin, James, JL, )

(Kim Dong Yun, Park Yeon Jun, Yuito)

They're cute.

This was Group "One and Only."

- I enjoyed watching them the most.
- He's the one.

- It's guaranteed.
- The directors...

I like this guy.

He was way too good.

The directors had feelings...

about a few players before the performance.

Now that you've seen
it, were you right about it?

- Yes.
- We're doomed without him.

- Really? That good?
- Yes.

- I can feel how desperate you are.
- I'm excited.

He's very excited.

I know. I can't wait to find out.

(Who's the one that seized
Director EL CAPITXN's heart?)

The third guy did a good job.

I think he was the best.

The boy named JL stood out the most.

I think he's the only one who stood out...

in "One and Only."

While singing and dancing,

his expression was... Gosh.

He knew how to grab attention.

He shined.

(He shined onstage.)

- He was a good singer.
- Yes.

He's not only good at
dancing, but he can really sing.

He's an all-rounder.

Now,

I will give you 60 seconds.

Pick the player you want to nominate.

We're sticking to our first pick.

- I think everyone will choose him.
- It'll overlap this time, right?

If it doesn't, we'll be grateful.

Then we couldn't be more
grateful. It's basically a giveaway.

(Director Lee Chang Sub makes
his decision without hesitation.)

(Tapping)

Look.

I'd choose him for a stronger performance.

I think he'd pull it off the best.

He was mostly in the center.

He stood out.

- He was good.
- Actually...

He stood out to me the most.

- Okay.
- Okay?

- I'd choose the third one.
- Me too.

I'd go with the third one too.

I think the three
groups will all choose JL.

(Will there be 3 identical 1st
Picks in the draft for the 1st time?)

Four, three, two,

one.

Your time's up...

for the nomination.

I can't wait to see your choices.

I think it'll overlap.

(Anxious already)

(On eggshells)

Will it overlap?

I think so.

That's how it feels, right?

(A scout fight is expected
among the three teams.)

Now, let's reveal the 3 teams' 1st Pick.

I can't wait to find out.

(Who will become the 1st
Pick among the 6 players?)

I think all three teams overlapped.

Revealing TEAM BEAT's First Pick.

- I think it's him.
- Ta-da.

- Ta-da.
- We'll see.

(Will the result be just
as everyone expects?)

(JL)

- Thank you.
- TEAM BEAT chose...

JL.

(First Pick, BEAT, JL)

(Exclaiming)

JL.

Next, let's reveal TEAM RHYTHM's...

First Pick.

They're smiling. It overlapped.

(Is TEAM RHYTHM's First Pick also JL?)

- See?
- See?

- TEAM RHYTHM chose...
- Gosh.

(JL)

TEAM RHYTHM chose...

JL.

Come on.

(First Pick, RHYTHM, BEAT, JL)

He was that good at singing.

It's unbelievable.

Lastly, let's reveal TEAM GROOVE's...

First Pick.

What if all three teams overlap?

Three First Picks for the first time.

(Will it be 3 identical 1st
Picks for the 1st time?)

(Or will it be a different player?)

No way.

(Anxious, Nervous)

- Gosh!
- That's crazy.

My goodness.

(JL)

(TEAM GROOVE's First Pick is also JL.)

TEAM GROOVE also...

picked...

- JL.
- Let's go.

(This can't be happening.)

TEAM GROOVE also...

(3 identical 1st Picks for the 1st time)

How is that possible?

It's like, I couldn't really believe it.

While being on the
stage, I tried not to cry.

I was surprised by how
good of a singer you are.

While dancing, you
were singing in falsetto,

and yet you were firm.

That surprised me.

(Right!)

I hope he joins our team.

When you were
performing, you were flirting.

That stood out immediately.

He was wonderful.

After watching his performance,
they couldn't help but choose JL.

Just choose the team you want.

- We have to appeal to him now.
- Just choose the team you want.

(Taking his time)

We'll make Korea your second home.

And with all our welcoming heart...

Please come to our team.
We'll take care of you.

I'll teach you some
Korean. A lot of Korean.

Hey.

Your weapon is your vocals.

Come to the team that will
help you use your weapon wisely.

Gosh.

Your weapon is your existence.

(Touched)

That was unforgettable. My goodness.

Do I get popcorn? This is fun.

I love you

(Melting JL's heart with his sweet song)

(Touched)

I love you too.

Hey!

(JL)

If you love us, join us.

Now,

(Time for JL to choose)

it's time to choose.

(When the First Pick overlaps,
the player chooses the team.)

- Please. Join us.
- Now...

(Who will JL choose?)

The team that I've chosen is...

Come here.

- BEAT.
- We will welcome you.

(Join our team!)

Where is it going to be?

TEAM RHYTHM.

(JL's choice)

JL chooses TEAM RHYTHM.

Welcome home.

Congratulations.

Gosh, that is...

- It hurts.
- It hurts.

(TEAM BEAT is hurt many times today.)

(Congratulations.)

Hurry up. Hurry.

It's a bummer.

Welcome.

TEN is really my role model.

Seeing them super close...

and being with them...

as my mentors.

It's a super dream come true for me.

(Draft Starting Lineup:)

(Park Ju Won, Sirin, Zhang
Shuaibo, Royce, Daisuke, JL)

Now, it's time for your Second Pick.

Let's reveal TEAM BEAT's Pick first.

TEAM BEAT.

Thank you.

(TEAM BEAT chooses Kim Dong Yun.)

Come here.

Revealing TEAM GROOVE's Pick.

(James)

(TEAM GROOVE chooses James.)

- Thank you.
- Congratulations.

Thank you.

Good job.

- Congratulations.
- Come on.

Hello. Gosh.

(Draft Starting Lineup:)

(Zen Zen, Kim Joo Hyoung, Jang
Kyung Ho, Kenta, Seo Jeong Woo, James)

(Draft Starting Lineup:)

(An Yul, Chih En, Park Ji Hun, Keum
Jin Ho, Cha Woong Ki, Kim Dong Yun)

Now, we only have one draft stage left.

Already?

(Only one seat remains in each team.)

What are we missing now?
We're missing the main dancer.

No. We don't have the main dancer yet.

We need to think about what to do.

(Will the directors be able
to finish their last lineup?)

I barely have experience of
dancing with applause onstage.

I only have what I have left to show them.

I want to show that I can do it.

For everyone to see me.

I'm going to be the starting player.

My goodness.

- Let's go.
- Let's go.

(Appearing in intense outfits)

I love their outfits.

Li Zhinuo.

Kim Hyo Tae.

Jiang Fan.

Hi.

Koo Han Seo.

- Park Han.
- Hey.

Steven.

He's really cool.

Yes.

He's debuted before.

I lived in Australia.

Eight years ago, with the
dream to become an idol,

I moved to Korea alone.

(He began living in Korea
alone when he was 16.)

Then I debuted in LUMINOUS.

(Steven debuted in LUMINOUS 5 years later.)

After performing for a year,

we paused for a while.

Because I wasn't doing anything,

my parents told me...

to come back if there was
no result or performance.

I didn't want to go back like that.

I decided to show them.

So I didn't give up.

(Starting over again)

Hold the mic.

I came to Korea at 16...

without knowing anything.

I chased this dream for eight years.

I think...

this is my last chance.

I'm desperate for this dream.

(I'm desperate for Universe League.)

Sometimes, I wonder if anyone
can be as desperate as I am.

Because I've been
waiting for seven years now.

(Because I've been
waiting for 7 years now.)

I joined an agency when I
was 16 and became a trainee.

I spent most of the period...

for building my ego...

in the practice room
with my fellow trainees.

- Happy birthday to you
- Happy birthday to you

(He chased his goal to debut for 7 years.)

When I think about it, I've
never been onstage before.

I've never performed
properly onstage before.

I never sang or danced
in front of a crowd before.

No one knows who I am.

I don't want to...

sing and dance in front
of a mirror anymore.

I want the whole world to know.

I want to show them who I am.

(The players are trying for
Universe League with desperation.)

This is a tough song.

This is a hard song.

(What's the song every
director says is hard?)

(RIIZE released "Siren"
before their official debut.)

(It's an intense song with
a difficult performance)

Honestly, no one pulled it off yet...

- on audition shows.
- Right.

No one.

Either they really pull it
off or mess it up big time.

That's why I'm looking forward to it.

- If they pull it off...
- Universe League.

- Are you ready?
- Yes!

(The players send a loud cheer.)

Good luck.

(How will they perform the
extremely difficult song?)

My teammates are the ones you go to...

for a great performance.

I'm confident we'll kill it.

I will devote my seven
years to the performance...

and become a starting player.

I'm a fighter. I will not lose.

I will become a starting player.

("Siren" by Jiang Fan, Kim Hyo
Tae, Koo Han Seo, Li Zhinuo, )

(Park Han, Steven)

They're good at dancing.

Hey!

- Hey.
- Goodness.

They're good.

(How cool.)

Isn't he amazing?

Hey!

What?

- Who is he?
- This guy.

Gosh, here he comes again.

That was fantastic.

Nice.

(All the directors were satisfied
with the quality of performance.)

That was legendary.

They were incredible.

That was the performance by Group "Siren."

All right. Directors.

What did you think about their performance?

The song, "Siren,"

is quite tough.

- It looks tough.
- You either do well...

or do really bad.

It's 1 of the 2. There's no middle.

From what I saw,

you killed it today.

- Thank you.
- Thank you.

That's a high praise.

I've watched many covers of "Siren."

But this performance was the best...

among all the covers.

- Really?
- Yes. I was very happy with it.

What a high praise.

I wasn't sure if they could
sing live while dancing.

But everyone was powerful...

and did an overall good job.

I was very satisfied and
enjoyed the performance.

That was cool.

Seriously.

I was bewitched by the performance.

- Were you?
- Yes. It was so cool...

that I simply kept watching.

You were seriously cool.

(All the directors praised "Siren.")

Whoever gets picked, I agree with it.

I bet this is the toughest performance.

No wonder they went last.

Really.

Is it Park Han?

The guy in the center
wearing a black jacket.

He stood out to me.

Same here.

He was flying around.

I can't even do push-ups.

(At a crossroads while scouting players)

- Let's do it.
- I'll go with this guy.

Okay.

I'm in.

He really caught my eye.

Honestly, we only need three players...

who are great at dancing.

Everyone was amazing.

- It's hard.
- Right?

- Four, three, - Let's go.

Two, one.

That's all the time you
get to nominate the players.

Performing onstage has
always been my dream.

I want to keep performing onstage.

I must become a starting player.

Let us reveal the First
Pick for TEAM GROOVE.

Who is it?

I hope we don't overlap.

(Who did TEAM GROOVE pick?)

(Park Han)

Here it is.

(First pick, GROOVE, Park Han)

TEAM GROOVE picked Park Han.

Let us reveal the First
Pick for TEAM RHYTHM.

(First pick, GROOVE, Park Han)

(Come to our team.)

Here's TEAM RHYTHM's First Pick.

(Steven)

TEAM RHYTHM picked Steven.

Thank you.

Congratulations.

(Feeling relieved)

(Glaring)

Without knowing, I kept looking at him.

He has a mysterious vibe.
That's why we picked him.

The two teams have
nominated different players.

Lastly, let us reveal the
First Pick for TEAM BEAT.

(Who is TEAM BEAT's First Pick?)

I have no idea.

- I think they overlapped.
- I think so too.

Here's TEAM BEAT's First Pick.

(First pick, RHYTHM,
Steven, GROOVE, Park Han)

(How could this happen?)

(Park Han)

TEAM BEAT has picked Park Han.

(First pick, RHYTHM, Steven,
GROOVE, BEAT, Park Han)

(TEAM GROOVE and TEAM
BEAT's First Pick has overlapped.)

(Having fun)

- How come?
- I got drawn in by him.

- How come?
- He drew me in.

- I'm with you.
- Right?

Thank you.

Firstly, Steven who has been...

picked first solo can
head to the team seat.

Okay. Thank you.

Thank you.

I'm jealous.

Congratulations.

You were great.

I'm grateful they called out my name.

It's a chance I cannot miss.

Now then, TEAM BEAT is having...

the hardest time forming the team.

The First Pick overlapped again.

Why do you need Park Han?

I saw his desperation
during the performance.

And he just grabbed my attention.

My reasons are similar to his.

(Being loved by the directors)

I know the feeling of
desperation. I've been there before.

I will make that desperation come true.

Okay.

If you have any questions,
feel free to ask them now.

I already have a team in mind.

Already?

(A bolt out of the blue)

Please.

(Praying earnestly)

Chang Sub. Don't look so down already.

(He has given up on hope.)

(Please.)

Let's hear it right away.

Tell us which team you have chosen.

(Which team will Park Han choose?)

- Okay, I...
- Please come to our team.

Okay, I...

(Even the players are hoping for Park Han.)

Okay, I...

choose TEAM GROOVE.

(Park Han chooses TEAM GROOVE.)

(Hurrah!)

(Feeling incredibly proud)

Welcome.

(The players are as happy as the director.)

(TEAM BEAT has failed
to scout 3 players in a row.)

(TEAM BEAT has failed
to scout 3 players in a row.)

(Devastated)

TEAM BEAT.

TEAM BEAT. YUGYEOM!

(Leaving his seat)

(What do we do?)

Where are you going?
You can't quit already.

(He wants to go home.)

(The choice makes one
happy while the other sad.)

- I'm feeling dizzy.
- Wait.

You keep losing whenever
the player overlaps.

(The players TEAM BEAT failed to scout)

Our team will prove itself from now on.

- Totally.
- We'll prove it.

Let's do this!

(Let's go, TEAM BEAT.)

All right. TEAM BEAT, pick your...

starting player.

(Who is TEAM BEAT's Second Pick?)

Actually...

- I picked him.
- He was great at dancing.

His dance moves were extraordinary.

(A player TEAM RHYTHM identifies at once?)

- Jiang Fan.
- Jiang Fan.

(Jiang Fan)

- Jiang Fan.
- Thank you.

(TEAM BEAT's Second Pick is Jiang Fan.)

- Welcome.
- Hi.

- Hi.
- Thank you.

(TEAM BEAT's last
starting player is Jiang Fan.)

- Welcome.
- Hi.

- Great work.
- Good job.

Welcome. Thanks.

(Welcome. Thanks.)

I wasn't sure if it was real.

I'm a step closer to my dream now.

I had a mix of many feelings.

The starting players of each
team have been decided.

(The 7 starting players are complete.)

Good work to everyone.

Here are the lineups of
the drafted starting players.

TEAM RHYTHM.

Here are the starting
players of TEAM RHYTHM.

(Park Ju Won, Sirin, Zhang
Shuaibo, Royce, Daisuke, JL, Steven)

TEAM GROOVE.

Here are the starting
players of TEAM GROOVE.

(An Yul, Chih En, Park Ji Hun,
Keum Jin Ho, Cha Woong Ki, )

(Kim Dong Yun, Jiang Fan)

On the bench...

are 21 players who have not been picked.

(The fates of the teamless players)

The teamless players on the bench...

cannot participate...

in Universe League if they
are not scouted to a team.

(The players are eliminated if not picked.)

(Someone might leave this place.)

Today? Are they eliminated today?

How scary.

I don't want to go home right now.

I want to stay here longer.

I have much more to show.

You are given...

one more chance.

The last chance to be scouted into a team.

(The last chance to survive)

(The last chance for the teamless players)

(I will perform like it's my last stage.)

(It starts now.)

(I will show them for sure.)

(It's the last chance.)

(Sing the Korean national anthem.)

(Again. You're out of tune.)

The meaning of this time

(Disappointed)

(I'm losing it.)

- Good grief.
- I'm done.

(What is the fate of the boys
who are near elimination?)

(I want to try.)

(Player...)

(You are eliminated.)

(What is the final result
of the Bench Test?)

(Was I bad?)

(And...)

(the competition to
debut officially starts.)

They're good.

We'll win.

It's worth a shot.

I will do my best and
defend my starting position.

(Universe League)
