NOTE: THE UNDERLINED TEXT IS THE VOICEOVER FROM WHOEVER IS HOLDING THE CAMERA IN THAT MOMENT.

TEXT IN [BRACKETS] IS A NOTE FROM KYU, THE TRANSLATOR, TO HELP THE READERS UNDERSTAND WHAT HAPPENED ON CAMERA. FOR IMAGINATION PURPOSES.

"HOON" [STAFF] ━ ... Oh? You want me... To give my input on the trainees?

"HAO" [STAFF] ━ They asked me first, but I want you to do that instead.

"HOON" [STAFF] ━ Do you like bullying me, by any chance?

"HAO" [STAFF] ━ I don't.

HE DOES.

"HAO" [STAFF] ━ You're so stingy... Come on, hyung, do it for me.

"HOON" [STAFF] ━ Damn... [sighs, scratching his head] OK, OK! I will do it.

"HAO" [STAFF] ━ Yay! You're the best. I will buy you chocolate once you're done.

"HOON" [STAFF] ━ ... I literally have diabetes? Whatever...

[HOON SEEMS RELUCTANT, BUT HE EVENTUALLY TAKES THE CAMERA AND GOES AROUND THE STUDIO.]

"HOON" [STAFF] ━ Uhm, how to start this... I think they're fine? They're not that b-

[A SCREAM CAN BE HEARD IN CLASS ONE'S TRAINING ROOM !]

"HOON" [STAFF] ━ ... Even the quiet ones are causing a mess!?

"HOON" [STAFF] ━ [opening CLASS ONE's training room's door] What the hell...

LEE TAEWON [CLASS ONE] ━ LUKA. GET OFF ME... NOW.

LUKA MIKHAILOV [CLASS ONE] ━ ... Cockroach.

LEE TAEWON [CLASS ONE] ━ I'M GOING TO FALL-

OSCAR LEE [CLASS ONE] ━ In Luka's defense, that thing is huge!

LI MO [CLASS ONE] ━ Weakling... Didn't you live in Australia? I'm sure you've seen worse.

LEE TAEWON [CLASS ONE] ━ QUICK. SOMEONE REMOVE IT AND GET LUKA OFF ME-

JANG HUIJUN [CLASS ONE] ━ Hi hi, silly~!

... HUIJUN PICKS UP THAT... WHATEVER THAT THING IS.

JANG HUIJUN [CLASS ONE] ━ Let's get you out of here, mh? Before someone accidentally steps on you...

WHILE HUIJUN SAVES EVERYONE'S LIFE BY GENTLY GETTING THE INSECT OUT OF THE TRAINING ROOM, LUKA CALMLY GETS DOWN.

"HOON" [STAFF] ━ Guys... What happened...

KWON SIYUN [CLASS ONE] ━ The class representatives are away so we're training on our own... But then, Luka silently jumped on Taewon and started kicking his feet in the air! You should've watched the scene!

"HOON" [STAFF] ━ No, I think this was enough... But whatever. Greet the camera, Siyun.

KWON SIYUN [CLASS ONE] ━ Oh...! Hello! I'm Siyun! Kwon Siyun! [starts jumping] I'm 24 years old and I've been a musical actor for as long as I can rem-

"HOON" [STAFF] ━ I said just greet... I don't have much time!

HE TALKS TOO MUCH, BUT HE'S ONE OF MY FAVORITES. PLEASE DON'T TAKE IT BADLY IF I REPLY TO HIM LIKE THIS...

KWON SIYUN [CLASS ONE] ━ Aw...

"HOON" [STAFF] ━ Here... Do you want some candy? These were the ones you wanted last time, I think...

KWON SIYUN [CLASS ONE] ━ Oh, yes! Thank you!

"HOON" [STAFF] ━ [looking at the camera] Overall... CLASS ONE is nice, I don't really have complaints about them. They're rather nice people...!

NIE XINNING [CLASS ONE] ━ Excluding Elvira, well...

LEE AEJUNG [CLASS ONE] ━ But... She's out, isn't she? We're not counting her in, after what happened yesterday...

"HOON" [STAFF] ━ ... Huh?

OSCAR LEE [CLASS ONE] ━ Eden told me she stormed out of her room with all her things... That's all I know. But I suppose it means she's out of the competition, since she hasn't even come here today?

"HOON" [STAFF] ━ And you guys let her? Just like that?

SON YEEUN [CLASS ONE] ━ ... Well, yes? It's her choice and she doesn't like anyone here anyways... I don't really have the right to stop her, do I?

"HOON" [STAFF] ━ ... Doesn't it have more to do with the fact none of you likes her, rather than the opposite?

LEE AEJUNG [CLASS ONE] ━ Oh, that too. She's so detestable... I don't hold grudges, but she-

LI MO [CLASS ONE] ━ "I don't hold grudges"... Me when I lie...

LEE AEJUNG [CLASS ONE] ━ Are you talking about yourself? That statement applies more to you than me, Li Mo.

SON YEEUN [CLASS ONE] ━ Girls, calm do-

LI MO [CLASS ONE] ━ You keep talking about Elvira as if you're not just as insufferable. I hate hypocrites like you, Lee Aejung. You're both disgusting.

LEE AEJUNG [CLASS ONE] ━ What the hell? I hope you're joking! I understand if you have complaints about Yeeun, but what do I have to do with your stupid ac-

SON YEEUN [CLASS ONE] ━ Huh?

LI MO [CLASS ONE] ━ And of course you're deflecting the attention from yourself... What did I expect?

"HOON" [STAFF] ━ Erm...

LEE AEJUNG [CLASS ONE] ━ If you don't stop spouting nonsense, I'll pull your hair out of your hea-

CHEN YUTING [CLASS ONE] ━ What.

[YUTING IS STANDING ON THE DOORSTEP AS AEJUNG SPEAKS.]

SON YEEUN [CLASS ONE] ━ Oh, Yuting...!

CHEN YUTING [CLASS ONE] ━ I thought I told both of you to solve your issues privately... I don't think anyone asked to view this pathetic performance of yours.

AHN JUNYONG [CLASS ONE] ━ This is what happens when we're away for a short while...

MAYBE I SHOULD LEAVE UNTIL THEY'RE FOCUSED ON THIS MESS...

AHN JUNYONG [CLASS ONE] ━ Oh, HOON.

"HOON" [STAFF] ━ ... Y-yes?

AHN JUNYONG [CLASS ONE] ━ I'm sorry you had to see this. [sighs] You're OK, right?

"HOON" [STAFF] ━ Oh... Yeah... Thank you.

"HOON" [STAFF] ━ ... Wait a second. I am supposed to ask you that! Are you OK, Junyong?

AHN JUNYONG [CLASS ONE] ━ [smiles] I am! Don't worry for me~

"HOON" [STAFF] ━ ... I'm glad. Well, since we're here... Say something to the camera.

AHN JUNYONG [CLASS ONE] ━ Oh? OK... Hello?

AHN JUNYONG [CLASS ONE] ━ I... Uhm... What am I supposed to say?

"HOON" [STAFF] ━ Oh, nothing! Just greet the public at home. I'm showing the trainees I like a bit more for this... Documentary thing?

"HAO" [STAFF] ━ Documentary? You make it sound like we're on Discovery Channel.

"HOON" [STAFF] ━ ... Instead of standing on the doorstep like an idiot, how about you come here and do this yourself?

"HAO" [STAFF] ━ OK, sorry. Keep going!

"HOON" [STAFF] ━ ... As I was saying-

AHN JUNYONG [CLASS ONE] ━ I'm a trainee you like a bit more than the rest? Really?

"HOON" [STAFF] ━ OH... You heard that... I suppose so...? You're admirable, that's what I can say.

AHN JUNYONG [CLASS ONE] ━ Oh... Oh...! I see... That's nice to hear... [with a prideful smile] Not like anyone can hate me, the awesome Ahn Junyong...

JANG HUIJUN [CLASS ONE] ━ Eden hates you to death.

OSCAR LEE [CLASS ONE] ━ You scare me.

JANG HUIJUN [CLASS ONE] ━ To be fair, you scare everyone in our group~

AHN JUNYONG [CLASS ONE] ━ ... I heard nothing.

"HOON" [STAFF] ━ ... Well, either way. It's time for me to leave and go meet the other trainees... See you. [waving his hand]

DAMN, CLASS ONE IS MUCH WILDER THAN EXPECTED. WHAT DO YOU MEAN AEJUNG WAS ABOUT TO PULL LI MO'S HAIR? DON'T TRY IT AT HOME, PLEASE...

[I FIRMLY BELIEVE MNET TRIED TO SET THEM UP. IF YOU WATCH THE EPISODE, AEJUNG SEEMS NEUTRAL TOWARD LI MO AND FRIENDLY WITH YEEUN... SO DON'T FALL FOR THEIR SCHEMES, VIEWERS!]

NEXT... CAFETERIA IT IS.

YOON JIHYEON ALICE [CLASS TWO] ━ Food! Food! Food!

SUNG JUNSOO [CLASS TWO] ━ [hitting the vending machine] Food! Food! Food!

RETROFRONT RETROFRONT RETROFRONT RETROFRONT RETR-

YOON JIHYEON ALICE [CLASS TWO] ━ HOON.

"HOON" [STAFF] ━ [running away] NO.

YOON JIHYEON ALICE [CLASS TWO] ━ What have I done to you to deserve this treatment... [pouts]

"HOON" [STAFF] ━ Everything.

I DON'T WANT TO REMEMBER WHEN THAT EGUCHI DUDE NEARLY KILLED ME BECAUSE OF ALICE'S SHENANIGANS.

AND FUCK THE CAFETERIA !

[THANK YOU FOR THE RAW, UNCENSORED CURSING, MNET...! I'M STARTING TO BELIEVE THIS IS ALL A FEVER DREAM.]

TAEYANG [CLASS THREE] ━ Oh, HOON.

"HOON" [STAFF] ━ Oh, Taeyang. Need anything...?

TAEYANG [CLASS THREE] ━ Yeah... Sorry for asking, but Yueliang broke his desk again.

"HOON" [STAFF] ━ ...

"HOON" [STAFF] ━ Wasn't Class Three supposed to be training now?

TAEYANG [CLASS THREE] ━ Yeah, but we're taking turns. The girls team is currently in.

"HOON" [STAFF] ━ Oh, I s-

JIN SIEUN [CLASS THREE] ━ [from the training room] I CAN'T DO THIS.

CHOI EUNWOO [CLASS THREE] ━ Siu... It's just Du, du, du, du, du, du, du... Du, du, du, du, du, du, du, du... How is that difficult?

JIN SIEUN [CLASS THREE] ━ IT'S JUST... SIHYEON IS STARING AT ME SO INTENTLY... I lose focus this way!

YANG SIHYEON [CLASS THREE] ━ Do... Do you want me to stop?

JUNG SEOLHA [CLASS THREE] ━ I don't think that will solve anything... The mentors will probably be much worse when we'll perform directly in front of them.

YANG SIHYEON [CLASS THREE] ━ ... And how do you know that?

[SEOLHA HAS BEEN IN THREE SURVIVAL SHOWS NOW. SHE WOULD KNOW BETTER THAN ANYONE ELSE, SIHYEON...]

"HOON" [STAFF] ━ [from outside] ... Yeah, I can tell they're not having a good time either... How is your team doing?

TAEYANG [CLASS THREE] ━ Fairly well... Suho is the only one who has problems catching up, I feel, but it's understandable. They're working very hard, so they'll be fine by the time we have to perform in front of the teachers.

"HOON" [STAFF] ━ Oh, great! Since you're here, can you do me a favor... Hold this camera while I call the production for the broken desk.

TAEYANG [CLASS THREE] ━ Oh... OK? [taking the camera] Do I have to talk to i-

HOON HAS RUN AWAY LIKE A WILD POKÉMON...

TAEYANG [CLASS THREE] ━ [sighs] I assume I have to talk to it...? Hello?

TAEYANG [CLASS THREE] ━ I really don't know what I'm supposed to say... Uhm... Do you want to know about how Yueliang broke his desk twice?

TAEYANG [CLASS THREE] ━ No, maybe it's not worth your time.

"HAO" [STAFF] ━ No no, now I want to know. How did he do that.

TAEYANG [CLASS THREE] ━ ...

"HAO" [STAFF] ━ Aw, what did I do to you...

TAEYANG [CLASS THREE] ━ ...

"HAO" [STAFF] ━ Is it because of me ignoring the desk issue until now~? I'm sorry, I was busy...!

TAEYANG [CLASS THREE] ━ Following your boyfriend around while doing nothing doesn't seem like being busy...

"HAO" [STAFF] ━ Who told you.

TAEYANG [CLASS THREE] ━ Walls have ears, doors have eyes... And you're so painfully obvious about it too.

"HAO" [STAFF] ━ ... Oh.

"HOON" [STAFF] ━ [on a call, approaching HAO and TAEYANG] Yes, I know it's the second desk... Some people here just think they're werewolves, unfortunately... Yes, it sounds stupid, and it is stupid... Thank you very much. Yes, we'll pay the additional fee as well... [sighs, turning off his phone] Thank you for holding the camera.

TAEYANG [CLASS THREE] ━ [with a sly smile] You're welcome~.

"HOON" [STAFF] ━ ... I won't ask what got you to smile like that, Taeyang.

"HAO" [STAFF] ━ Well, just say what you think about the trainees overall! What's your final say after what happened today?

"HOON" [STAFF] ━ I hate this place and I'm extremely grateful this is just a part time job or I would've ended my life already.

"HOON" [STAFF] ━ ... But I suppose the trainees also make my day funnier? So in the end...

"HOON" [STAFF] ━ I still hate your guts and I can't wait to get out of here with my paycheck. 

"HAO" [STAFF] ━ [sarcastic] ... So nice of you, hyung!

[HE'S RIGHT THOUGH... EXCEPT IF HE'S REFERRING TO HUIJUN. I WILL COMMIT CRIMES IN THAT CASE!]

[WITH THIS, HOON ENDS THE RECORDING... OR AT LEAST, HE TRIES TO. WHAT THE HELL IS HE DOING WHILE THE SCREEN IS COMPLETELY BLACK.]

"HOON" [STAFF] ━ How to turn off this thing...

"HAO" [STAFF] ━ You should click here!

"HOON" [STAFF] ━ ... That's your cheek.

TAEYANG [CLASS THREE] ━ Do you want everyone and their moms to know about you two? If that camera is on, I'm worried for y-

[HE TURNED IT OFF. A BIT LATE, BUT HE DID IT !]

FEVEN'S CORNER !!!

My scheduler said it was time to evil edit someone and the wheel chose...!

Although ehm. If I must say this myself, this would be scandal worth it in real life... Which is why I might decide to make a news site section someday... 😭

But here's the thing: consider this was recorded before the announcement of the results, which means that - as Kyu said in the T/N - things seem to be solved between Yeeun and Aejung and that's certainly not all there is to the whole story...! Maybe the doubt will be cleared in the future episodes? Who knows 🤭

Don't forget to check EXTRA 03, by the way!
