#koc trainee

[lobotomyhaver]

Hi! Myself and my friend are hoping to start a discord for an idol OC project called Girls Galaxy Star.

Girls Galaxy Star is an in-universe international idol survival show taking trainee applicants from any country and putting them to the test through various challenges in order to find the ultimate international girl group to debut at the end of the season.

We are not strictly an RP-focused group and the challenges will be decided upon by muns and will focus, OOC, on completing writing/art tasks for each character to share with the group, though we both have around a decade of RP experience and would be happy to include RP channels.

My friend is more familiar with KOC and general KPOP gg content, but I'm a big animanga rp and jpop fan, of both 3D and 2.5D groups like Love Live or Bang Dream, and this setting we're building is a way to bond over those interests together and we're looking for people who are interested in either of those things to help us create a fun story together.

We'd especially love people who don't shy away from the eclectic, and are passionate about strange or unique concepts, fun and fleshed-out characters, and, of course, f/f romance. And drama. Lots of drama. The best people are interested in worldbuilding and character dynamics both in and out of RP.

We are both 18+ and would like it to remain 18+. If interested, shoot me a DM! Thanks!

Baby Don’t Stop

Summary: Daisuke gets evaluated by the trainers with his teammate, Kou. [EPISODE 1]

Series: Produce 101 Japan Addition, Produce 101 Japan OC

A/N: Yes, I’m behind in PD101JP. At least now I’m not posting any spoilers 🤩

Also! I do not own Kou! The loveable Kou is owned by the equally lovable @luvnaka.

                            ⊶⊷⊶⊷⊶⊷⊶⊷ ⊶⊷⊶⊷⊶⊷⊶⊷

Daisuke rolled out his shoulders and adjusted his stance, trying to make himself look taller and broader, and maybe just a little bit older. He gazed at his reflection in a piece of glass in the waiting area, trying to practice his facial gestures.

The eighteen year old thought he was looking pretty suave until a shadow loomed behind him in the reflection of the glass and a hand covered his shoulder. “Looking good, big man.” Kou, Daisuke’s partner for the evaluation, teased. “Ease up though, you don’t want to intimidate the national producers too much.” “You should have picked a different partner,” Daisuke wilted, his posture slouching back down to his typical 5′7 stance. “I’m not manly enough for this song.” Kou rolled his eyes. “Here we go again...” “I should have just gone solo instead of dragging you down.” Daisuke mourned. The taller boy sighed and turned the younger boy around by his shoulder, forcing eye contact. “Daisuke, if I didn’t think we were a good match, I would have worked with someone else. You kill this song in practice, just keep doing what we’ve been doing. I wouldn’t want to be a Basement Boyz with anyone else.”

Daisuke sighed, but nodded. Even if he objected, it wasn’t like they had much of an option. He had to perform Baby Don’t Stop weather he was feeling himself or not. “Basement Boyz, you’re on.” A staff member alerted them. Kou straightened up instantly and Daisuke tried his best to mimic the older boy’s confidence. “Alright, let’s get it.” Kou said with gusto before leading the pair to the stage.

Daisuke walked out onto the stage confidently, but he noticed very quickly that the way the contestants were gazing at him differed greatly from how they were observing Kou. “Ah, that one’s so cute.” He heard someone compliment from the seats, but he couldn’t identify the speaker. He also heard voices gushing about a height difference. Daisuke’s cheeks started to flush and he cursed himself for not packing higher insoles.

When the two were positioned in center stage, Kou glanced at Daisuke, giving him the signal to introduce themselves.

“One, two! We are Basement Boyz! Please watch over us!” The two introduced themselves. Daisuke was painfully aware of how high pitched his voice sounded.  “Why ‘Basement Boyz’?” Okamura Takashi wondered. Kou gestured to Daisuke to explain. Daisuke cleared his throat before pushing the microphone attached to his cheek closer to his mouth. “Both Kou and I have received training in South Korea for several years. There’s a joke among trainees and Kpop fans that trainees are kept locked away in their company’s basements until they debut.” Daisuke explained, pausing for the chuckles in the audience. “We call ourselves the Basement Boyz because we share that common background together.”  “But you’re still under a Korean entertainment, aren’t you?” Sugai Hidenori questioned. Daisuke gulped. Another thing he was nervous about bringing up. He was currently the only trainee that wasn’t independent.

“Yes,” Daisuke began to explain. He paused to elaborate further but Warner nodded and brought the microphone up to his lips.

“Alright, let’s see what the Basement Boyz have prepared.” The dance coach stated. Daisuke hurried to his starting position and took in a deep breath, waiting for the music to start.

Baby Don’t Stop by NCT U echoed through the audition hall, causing the other trainees to exclaim in surprise. The sexy song was definitely not expected, but all eyes were on them while they performed.

Daisuke and Kou performed to their best ability, putting every ounce of effort into making this performance enjoyable for both them and their audience. When they finished, applause erupted from the other trainees. Daisuke fought off the urge to smile at the approval from his peers and focused on what the coaches had to say.

“Great. Please let us consult each other.” Hidenori said before turning his back to them and comparing notes with his fellow coaches. After brief discussion, the coaches sat back down, ready to give the final evaluation.

“Grade A...” Warner anticipated. “Amamiya Kouichi.”

Next to him, the tall boy let out a sigh of relief. “Thank you.” Kou bowed forward. Daisuke clapped and smiled brightly. He knew Kou was going to get a high grade. His partner was just too talented to be ranked elsewhere.

A painful silence passed over the coaches and audience, the whole hall was still. Daisuke was sure that he hadn’t made the cut for grade A. The pause was too long.

Yet the microphone was brough to Warner’s mouth once again. “And Tanaka Daisuke.” the trainer finished. Daisuke blinked a few times, barely registering the congratulatory clap on the back from Kou.

“Both of you are amazing performers. We’d love to see what other sides of you will be shown in the future.” Bose explained.

The Basement Boyz nodded in unision, both of them understanding that just because they made A Class doesn’t mean they don’t have room for improvement. The real challenge has yet to come.

Former child actress and even received a few awards.

Participated in MNET survival show GIRLS PLANET 999 and was very popular but chose to drop out around the fifth episode. Her grandfather got very sick and was hospitalized. Despite his pleas for her to stay on the show, she stubbornly went against his wishes. Thankfully, he made a full recovery.

Her most notable performance was ICE CREAM and other members of that group revealed that Chaewon helped mentor them and give vocal tips because the members had been nervous about their singing. Of course when that was revealed, some “antis” accused her of being arrogant or bossy.

Chaewon is known to be blunt but never with the intentions of being mean.

She’s said her role model is Sora of @divine-group-official​ and there is even videos of the two interacting cutely at a fan sign around DIVIN3s debut. 

She likes to help people with any and everything (cooking, cleaning, training, shopping for things, pretty much anything lol). She’s like an eager puppy wanting to be involved and contribute in some way.

She’s expressed an interest in song writing and works on them in her spare time. Nobody knows what she writes though as she keeps them in a notebook hidden away in her pillow case.

The Cute One

Summary: While taking a break during practice with DNA Team 1, Daisuke realizes that his image on PD101 Japan is different than his image at HBH. [SOMETIME DURING EPISODE 3] 

Series: Produce 101 Japan Addition, Produce 101 Japan OC.

Takumi sighed and placed his chin on Daisuke’s shoulder, staring at his reflection in the mirror in front of the two boys. Daisuke grinned and patted the side of Takumi’s head.

“What’s wrong, Takumi-kun?” Daisuke asked. “I’m so tired. I think my legs are going to fall off.” Takumi sighed, shifting his head downward so that his forehead pressed against the spot where his chin used to be.  “That’s what happens when you ignore my snack break invite and practice non-stop all day.” Daisuke teased, his shoulders still tense. ��Hey,” Takumi peeled himself away from Daisuke, furrowing his eyebrows. “Why is your body language so awkward?”

“He does that.” Togo spoke up. “I pinched his cheek yesterday for acting cute and he seized up. It’s like he’s not used to the affection.” 

Daisuke chuckled. “That’s because I’m not.” 

“Wait, really?” Takumi looked surprised. “You seem like someone who receives a lot of skin ship...” 

“At my company they treat me differently than you guys do.” Daisuke shrugged. “I don’t really get much affection back at HBH.” 

“You don’t get cuddles?” Heecheon inserted himself into the conversation. “Why not? Usually people want to smother the cute one with affection.”  Daisuke blinked a few times before pointing his index finger at his own chest. “I’m the cute one? Usually I’m the more serious one of my team.” 

“That’s what makes you so cute though.” Takumi explained. “You usually are really focused, but when you let loose it’s like a burst of energy.”  “Yeah, like when you came into my room and woke me up.” Heecheon recalled the other day when the theme song had played through the dorm speakers. “I wasn’t expecting that from you, but it was still really cute.” 

Daisuke was at a loss for words. How did he fall into the ‘cute’ category without even trying? Suddenly he frowned at the other boys, crossing his arms over his chest.

“Hey, you’re not calling me cute just because I’m short, right?” He narrowed his eyes at the others. “No, we call you cute because of what you’re doing right now.” Togo laughed. “You’re pouting like a child.”  “This isn’t pouting, this is glaring!” Daisuke insisted, letting his arms fall to the side.

“I’ve never seen a more endeering glare.” Heecheon teased. “How about you work on your facial gestures while we practice. This break has been long enough.”

I went through the wiki’s Ranger category and made a list of Rangers that we probably all forgot about:

LIAM, first-year apprentice in KoC, killed in Royal Ranger by Jory Ruhl when his horse went over a trip wire.
