From Thug to Idol: Transmigrating to a Survival Show

Chapter 709 Sunshine, Stars Shine

Chapter 709 Sunshine, Stars Shine

"I knew it!" Bora exclaimed. "Those little girls really shouldn't be allowed to watch the show. EVE's happy trails are out in the open!"

"They're going crazy. Their moms are probably the same age as us," Soomin pointed out.

Wei chuckled in amusement. "Don't exaggerate now."

Meanwhile, Jia shook her head in disbelief. "I can't believe they get to see their abdomens in person before me."

- What the heck is this?

- No, my babies! Cover up, please.

- This is my view every night. I'll be patiently waiting for you at home, June! Don't show them everything, my love.

- Here we go again.

As the lights continued to dance around the stage, the atmosphere in the arena grew even more exciting.

The melody of 'Sunshine, Stars Shine' had just begun—a smooth and tantalizing RnB track that came from their latest album, Starlight.

The song hadn't been performed live just yet, so many people were looking forward to it.

However, most of them were confused since they couldn't really correlate the song to the 'bad boy' concept that EVE was currently employing.

The deep, resonant bass paired with synths created a soundscape that promised an unforgettable performance.

Then, cutting through the layered instrumental like a sharp knife came June's voice.

Soft yet powerful, his siren-like tones enveloped the entire venue, sending shivers down the audience's spine.

"In the shadows, whispers call my name,

Through the darkness, I've played their game.

Broken dreams and shattered nights,

But in silence, I'll find my light."

His vocal runs were effortless, each note flowing into the next without any effort.

June felt proud of himself. Despite Fu being inactive for weeks already, he still managed to maintain his skills.

Although, he still acknowledged that he wouldn't get to where he was without his system.

The crowd was enchanted; their cheers momentarily halted as June's voice faded.

The other members of EVE joined in with their rich harmonies, adding depth to the song.

Each member brought something unique to the mix, and their improved teamwork became more evident in this particular performance.

It was proof of the countless hours they had spent perfecting their craft together.

"When the world tries to bring me down,

I'll rise above, won't touch the ground.

Like the stars in the night sky,

Reach me now, but you'll only ever get to try."

The choreography was equally mesmerizing.

As the song reached its first chorus, the members of EVE paired together, making the crowd scream.

- Omo. What are these pairings?

- It's a crime that I'm not there to witness the performance.

- Guys, shut up! June and Casper are paired together.

- Whoever made these pairings, I hope you're happy in all aspects.

Ren and Akira, the ever-bickering duo, were paired up.

Zeth and Jisung, their two main dancers, were also together on the side of the stage.

Sehun and Jaeyong, the oldies of the group, danced in the very middle.

To their side were Casper and June, undoubtedly the most popular pairing in the entire group.

As Casper and June stepped forward, the crowd was immediately sent into a frenzy.

Their movements were sharp and precise. However, this was no ordinary dance routine.

The choreography had an intensity that bordered on combat, their movements reminiscent of a well-choreographed fight scene. They circled each other, their expressions fierce and determined.

Once again, the audience wondered if 'Sunshine, Stars Shine' was a song that had such a message. However, as June rapped the next verse, they realized that EVE took their title as 'concept masters' to a new level since they interpreted it in such a creative way.

"Let the stars shine through the darkest skies,

We'll be the light that never dies.

Rising up from the ashes grey,

With astras from the galaxy coming our way."

The crowd went crazy as their fandom name was mentioned. EVE actually took the time to change the lyrics so that they could include their beloved fans.

The song, deceptively titled 'Sunshine, Stars Shine,' was a song that talked about rising above adversity. The lyrics spoke of their journey to the top and their determination to shine brightly even when surrounded by darkness.

It was a message that resonated deeply with the fans, many of whom had followed EVE through their own ups and downs.

The performance, however, was a new side of EVE. It seemed more mature and intense.

Their outfits reinforced this image—ripped jeans, distressed leather jackets, crop tops, and artfully applied makeup that gave the impression of cuts and bruises.

They looked like complete troublemakers, and the fans were eating it right up.

As the performance neared its climax, the energy in the arena became unmatchable.

The music increased in volume while the lights erratically flashed. The members poured their hearts into every note and every movement.

And although they were doing such an intense choreography, their vocals never missed.

- What the heck? They've all improved so much!

- I agree. They're different now. Sometimes, fame gets into people's heads and makes them complacent in their performances, but not EVE.

- I'm so proud to be with them since day one.

- I'm jealous. I wish I was there at the very beginning. I only became a fan this month.

- I can't believe my boys have made it this far. I was convinced they were going to be an underrated team until their contract ended.

- EVE won't let that happen. Their company might suck, but people will find their raw talents through and through.

-They deserve every praise in the world.

The members of EVE now stood in a straight line, unmoving but with heavy breaths.

Then, Ren and Akira sang the first two lines of the outro in harmony, and June joined them at the very last line.

"So let the stars shine, let them guide us home,

In the night, we're never alone.

In our hearts, the fire's bright,

We'll shine forever through the darkest night."

With a final, powerful chord, the stage was plunged into darkness once more.

The sudden contrast was jarring, but the spotlight remained, casting its beam on the eight members of EVE.

They stood still, their figures against the black backdrop, embodying the very essence of the song's message.

EVE were the stars shining in the darkness.
