After gender swapping, my best friend and I hardcore BL (Boys' Love) became top influencers.

At 8 PM, all the trainees' initial performances on "Super Star" were released online.

Data is a crucial aspect that all idols and fans value immensely. Therefore, once the initial stage performance is released, randomly opening a stage link will reveal that many people are watching simultaneously, with some even playing it on multiple devices and repeatedly refreshing the view count.

However, amidst the chaotic fan battles, one initial stage video stood out from the rest.

[I came here because I've heard so much about it. Is this the legendary, epic "anti-depression miracle"?]

Yes, yes, that's it!

If you don't laugh after seeing this, you've never laughed in your life!

Among all the initial performances, this one immediately topped the popularity chart, and every time the numbers were refreshed, it surged again, almost ten times higher than the second and third place rankings.

I clicked on the video to take a look.

Warrior

—"The last crack before the darkness fades away,"

The city's pulse harbors unspeakable pain.

This intense dance track, blending heavy metal rock style, boasts a powerful rhythm and catchy melody, making it one of the most well-known hit singles among K-pop fans.

What's more, the people performing this song are two incredibly handsome guys; I wonder how explosive the stage effect will be when they sing and dance.

Logically, that's how it should be.

but……

[I'm speechless! What are you guys even doing with those two handsome faces?!]

[Those who can't laugh should check this out]

[Hahahaha, this is hilarious! How can someone's voice crack the very first word they say?!]

[I laughed so hard I cried. The production team was even worse in the final cut. This off-key note was cut three times, and each time they cut it, they showed a shot of the mentors and other trainees' expressions. Everyone's expression was like, "Damn, how did you grow up like this? Damn, how did you sing like this?" They used eighteen cameras to repeatedly mock him.]

These two faces are so deceptive! I fell in love with the one named Jiao Wangshu at first sight. He looked so ethereal and had such a beautiful voice. I thought I had finally met the great vocalist I had been dreaming of. But when he opened his mouth, I was dumbfounded. He was not as good as the one next to him named Ling Tinglan. Out of ten lines of lyrics, one of them missed eight lines and the other missed two lines...

You thought it was going to be "knockout from the first word," but it turned out to be "knockout from the first word," right?

[The most profound and extensive display of the Chinese language ever]

[Who understands? My first thought was to doubt my own ears and the production team's equipment, but I never doubted the two of them...]

[The production team's multi-million dollar sound system is like: May Heaven discern the truth!]

Why only criticize their off-key singing? Do you think their dancing is good? (doge)

In short, they're a perfect match in terms of looks and talent. Who wouldn't say we're a match made in heaven!

[So that's what "a perfect match" means! (laughing and crying)]

【Huh? They already have CP fans after just their first stage performance?】

[Your favorite couple might just be colleagues who've known each other for less than three days, while this pair are inseparable childhood friends of over twenty years. Why ship them as artificial sweeteners instead of real couples? Is there something on your mind?]

[Two stunningly beautiful people and two childhood sweethearts... When have I ever eaten such a delicious meal?!]

The comments section was buzzing with excitement, while Ling Tinglan in the video was squinting, and a deafening explosion rocked the stage as he turned around to play his solo.

The strong abdominal muscles tightened instantly, the core exerted its power, and with a burst of powerful force, the long legs turned, resulting in a beautiful side flip. The posture was upright and the movement was graceful, with every muscle line on the arms showing its best shape at this moment.

Unfortunately, this cool move was fleeting. The next second, as he entered the beat, he simultaneously extended his left hand, stepped out with his left leg, and confidently began to dance.

[High-energy warning ahead!!!]

【Here it comes!】

I burst out laughing when I saw this! How can someone dance with their feet on the same side?!

[Just looking at his face, he's definitely a top dancer. Who knows how sexy he looks when the stage lights shine on that bead of sweat on his jawline? This cool, aloof guy makes my legs weak, and then I looked closer and realized he's doing the same thing with his hands and feet.]

[Begging for Ling Tinglan's confidence-building tutorial (hands clasped together)]

The more serious he gets, the more I want to laugh. He's swinging his fists so powerfully, I'm afraid he'll just punch me twice through the screen (surrenders).

[Isn't it Jiao Wangshu next to them who's even funnier? The child is visibly forgetting his pose and keeps sneaking glances at Ling Tinglan.]

[The child is too honest; it's obvious they haven't copied any homework. They didn't even try to hide anything. The mouth shape they made while counting the beats was so obvious!]

I don't blame the kid, I'm really speechless. How can the student who's last copy the homework of the second-to-last student possibly understand it?

As they were talking, they saw Jiao Wangshu on the screen making the next dance move while stepping to the chorus. Her stiff body and her elegant and otherworldly temperament were so strangely similar to those generated by AI.

It looks like my grandpa is practicing Tai Chi in the park...

To be honest, the timing was pretty good, the child has a great sense of rhythm, and today's clothes were beautiful, the long ribbons were flowing, the little bows were tied neatly, and the hair was combed nicely... I'm sorry, I really can't praise her anymore (crying)

So what? Let the kid jump however they want!

To be honest, these two have incredibly good physical attributes. As a dance student, I can really speak to this. I even showed their photos to my teacher before, and she excitedly asked me where they went to school and what kind of dance they studied. Then I just forwarded this video to her, and she was silent for half an hour after watching it. Now she keeps repeating "What a waste of talent!" "What a waste of talent!" I'm dying of laughter.

[What a waste of talent! What were these two doing before they became trainees? They look like that, don't they have any conscience at all, not being idols and benefiting their fans? I'm punishing them to debut immediately and sing and dance for a hundred years!]

After seeing their initial performance, I finally believe they really are complete novices. Their information is absolutely genuine; honestly, they're so honest. They could have practiced for a few more days.

They probably don't have time. They wouldn't have come on the show if their uncle hadn't gone bankrupt.

[Although, this is already at a practiced level (laughing and crying). I just saw a video of another fan site admin's Lu Jing lens that brought them together a little bit. They were even trying to memorize lyrics on the bus. They were basically forced into this, but I don't care, I'll spoil them.]

[Yes, yes, I also became a fan because of their looks when the official photos were released, and then I learned more about them. The three-person nephew-uncle trio is really pitiful. Donghai Media is a small company. The two people who were supposed to participate in the talent show ran away together half a month before the show started filming. The boss brought in his own nephew and his nephew's childhood friend to save the day. If they didn't participate, they would have to pay compensation. Our Donghai uncle is about to go bankrupt, so let's just let them have it.]

So, does this mean they're already set on being eliminated in the first round? That won't do! This lousy show already doesn't have many handsome guys; if they eliminate two more "mountains of good looks," who'll want to watch? Production team, I advise you not to be so ungrateful.

[It's impossible for them to be eliminated in the first round, right? Their initial stage performance broke a million views in less than an hour after it went live, and now it's even reached number one on the global trending list. They're trending on Chinese social media, and anyone who followed K-pop after watching "Superstar" knows how difficult it is to climb the global trending list. Superstar's first breakout stage performance is here!]

The show has just started airing and needs to generate buzz, so they'll likely stay on for a few more rounds. They can just be eliminated before the final group is formed.

Those who understood cried...

[I can vouch for these two. Their supertopic was only created two days ago. After their initial stage performance went live, a bunch of foreign IPs flooded into the supertopic. Now there are more foreigners in the supertopic than Panda Girl. They all use some kind of translator, and it sounds like they're using a machine. For the first time in my life, I'm asking for a Chinese-to-Chinese translation tutorial.]

I like doing English reading comprehension exercises:

[And they're all incredibly proactive and enthusiastic, frantically asking for information about these two in the supertopic, sharing anything they see, and once they reply to me, they're like ghosts clinging to me. The thing is, I'm a newbie to this fandom too (crying). The only advantage I have over them is my native language.]

[This is what happens when you become a fan of ordinary people and a small company. There's so little public information about them except for their personal biographies on their respective accounts. Those who are joining now are the original fans. Let's cherish the days before any big fans start stirring up trouble and causing chaos (smoking)]
