[I-DOL] "NEOS" for Everyone

The Korean music scene now belongs to NEOS, five boys smashing through the threshold of the top just four years after their debut.

And their official fan club—the fandom that would stake its life on every move NEOS makes.

That's me, a 'NETI.'

Not long ago, Neo Entertainment's official membership app practically exploded after an unprecedented always-on event announcement sent NETIs in Korea and around the world into an uproar.

I never dreamed I would be the one chosen against odds of tens of millions to one—odds that seemed impossible even with all the luck on Earth gathered in one place. My heart nearly leaping from my chest, I opened the door to the CEO's office at the major agency Neo Entertainment, only to encounter a bizarre sight I had never expected.

"Welcome. You must be the star of this event."

CEO Kim Do-jin, head of Neo Entertainment.
Known in the industry as a cold-blooded genius, he calmly greeted me with his secretary seated affectionately on his lap. As if this were perfectly routine, the secretary leaned against his shoulder and lightly patted a document.

"Um……"

I swallowed hard and cautiously raised a finger.

"Why is your secretary... sitting on your lap, sir?"

"Oh, this?"

Without so much as twitching an eyebrow, CEO Kim Do-jin lightly wrapped an arm around the secretary's waist.

"You do not need to concern yourself with my private affairs. This is more important."

What he slid across the desk bore stark black letters: [NON-DISCLOSURE AGREEMENT] .

"This contract says that everything you see, hear, and feel during the thirty days you live with them goes with you to the grave. Break it and…… well, as a NETI, you will get to watch your favorites’ downfall in real time. The penalty fee is extra."

A razor-sharp warning hidden behind an easy smile. But I could not run after coming this far. As if entranced, I took the pen and signed my name without hesitation. The moment I finished, the corner of Do-jin's mouth rose in satisfaction.

"Perfect. Shall we go, then? To NEOS’s secret hideout."

The CEO's luxury sedan took me to an exclusive private mansion surrounded by dense forest on the outskirts of Seoul. The car door opened, and the instant the mansion's massive front doors swung wide,

a crisp, sophisticated UK garage beat spilled from the living-room speakers. Through the misty melody, five silhouettes turned their heads toward me.
