All the trainees were set and were given back their phones to use for their live broadcast that will take place at 7 p.m. Related communities and social media on the internet were full of opinions and excitement.

- Ninety-four people are doing the same waste of a live broadcast again this season?
   └ Haha, I just hope the contestants don't get hurt in the process.
       └ Considering this is UNet. That's just funny ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

- This is technically their first appearance after the release of those profiles, huh? I looked through the articles and read that this would be their introduction instead of those common videos on youtube last season.
   └ Ain't that unique?
   └ UNet is shameless though. They're using the trainees to advertise products, saying that the profits would go to charity. Doubt 💀
       └ Anyway, crazy fans believe in everything hehehe next is the dog-pig~

- I saw JYP's former trainee Shin Ryujin participating. A real shocker! I love her so much, so even if she promotes a massage chair. I will buy it!
   └ Even if she doesn't do anything, her pretty face is already content ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
   └ You guys should look at this contestant named Yu Jimin. Her visuals are insane! 😍
   └ You know, sometimes visuals don't just level their talent 🙄
       └ Hater alert.

It was getting chaotically confusing as people represented their egos. Though one thing is certain. The number of mentions for the participants jumped up several times.

6:58 p.m... Only two more minutes before I need to press the "start stream" button. All of us trainees were given the freedom to choose the location where we'd do our live introductions.

For me, I chose our living room dorm. Because I got sweet and spicy chicken as an item to promote, this was the only plausible option. I had to cook everything too. That's why I had this small stove placed under the table beside me as it was still cooking.

I prepared a sauce too. Just in case I get tired of eating it as it is.

I feel kind of bad for those who didn't get to find any envelopes though...

Nonetheless! Those who ranked higher will be placed on UNet's official page. Their live placements, banners, will be placed depending on how high they've ranked last time.

So the higher you've ranked. The better the audience will find your live stream. It's unfair honestly, but that's just how it is.

I was lucky enough to be placed within the top thirty.

Of course, the audience was not aware of that fact and the writers decided to place us like that on purpose as a hint.

Now, when the clock hit seven... I took a deep breath and sat down on the floor, leveling the table. Promptly tapping on the phone placed in front of me— not to mention I only borrowed this phone from staff since mine was old and outdated.

I'm broke, okay?

And I don't even know what I would've done if that agent who recruited me didn't cover for that crappy apartment of mine, Taeyeon was it?

Ugh, I shouldn't be thinking about this right now... I'll focus on now's situation. I only have thirty minutes to promote this food and myself.

Tapping on the phone, I didn't expect fifty people to immediately appear and watch me do whatever the heck I'm about to do. At the same time, my chicken finished cooking so I turned off the stove and placed them onto the flat wood I prepared on the table.

They gave me too much chicken, but it was cool since they gave me good pieces. The comments started to appear too.

"Hello, I'm going to promote this chicken recipe I got from Kkanbu Restaurant."

「Kim Minjeong? That's her name right? ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ Did she really just cook something?」

「She's cute!」

「Don't tell me she's really going to eat that in front of us ㅋㅋㅋㅋ」

「Now this is different!」

"I will eat and review..."

The viewers were slowly rising, from fifty to a hundred, a hundred to five hundred, and so on...

「I came here from the top banner's stream and I think I'm going to stay.」
