[Ding!]

[Quest Completed.]

[You have been rewarded 10,000 EXP in <Acting>.]

[You have unlocked the gift (Camera Magnetism): Increases natural photogenic appeal in photoshoots and video recordings.]

Minjae stared at the glowing screen that suddenly appeared in front of him. It floated quietly above his bed, lighting up his dark room a little.

He was back home now. The event had ended late, and it was already past midnight. He was lying on his bed, wrapped in a blanket. He already taken a shower and changed into comfortable clothes.

Finally, after a long night, he could finally rest.

"Camera Magnetism…" Minjae let out a soft laugh.

"It's… not bad at all," he said quietly, resting his head on the pillow.

Minjae's thoughts quickly drifted back to earlier when Junghoon had spoken to him. He didn't know that he was working on Hwarang studious, but he was glad to know about it.

"I wonder when will they release the official announcement on who got the role." He was so curious about it.

In the past, the studio wouldn't inform anyone, even the artist that they got the role. It will just be posted on their official social media account for everyone to see.

That's why the anticipation for it remained constantly high.

Minjae turned to his side, pulling the blanket a little closer to his chin. He sighed softly, his hand brushing through his damp hair.

"I hope they post it soon," he whispered. "I really want that role…"

In the middle of his thoughts, Minjae's phone buzzed lightly from the nightstand. He picked it up out of habit and saw the notification on his calendar.

[Reminder: 3 Days & 2 Nights Episode - Airing Tomorrow at 3 PM]

"Oh, right," Minjae blinked as he stared at the message on his phone. "That's already tomorrow."

Minjae had almost forgotten about it because of how busy his past few days had become.

In this new life, it would be his first time being in a big variety show.

"I just hope the episode would be fun and that it would get more people to be interested in our drama."

For now, it was the only wish that Minjae had.

With that last thought in his mind, he placed his phone back on the nightstand. He also turned off the small lamp beside his bed and closed his eyes.

He didn't know what tomorrow would bring, but for now, the only thing he needed to do was rest.

And with a deep sigh, Minjae slowly drifted off to sleep.

The next afternoon arrived quickly.

At exactly 3 PM, the opening theme of 3 Days & 2 Nights echoed through the living rooms and smartphones across the country. The familiar opening song it played, followed by a small snippet of the guests that will be joining for the day.

The people had become curious because the show didn't include any teasers at the end of the episode last week.

After a few seconds of the teaser, the show finally started. The cameras showed a beautiful landscape and greeneries, introducing the location of where the episode will be taking place today.

Then, the cast and guests appeared one by one, just like what they have filmed, weeks ago. Minjae was the first one to show up on the screen.

The people were surprised by it. Gasps and surprised comments quickly filled the chat boxes of livestream platforms and social media.

"Wait. Isn't that the guy from Lux & Co?"

"Minjae?! OMG he's in this episode??"

"Who is he?? He's kinda cute… and that smile??"

"Woah! Is that Nam Minjae!"

"Damn. I didn't expect this one

The camera zoomed in on Minjae as he walked toward the meeting spot. He was pulling a luggage with a bright smile on his face. He gave a cheerful wave to the camera, looking a bit shy but excited.

The cast of the show followed, and as usual, the people were excited to see the cast. Even while walking, they already found them funny.

However, what surprised the people more was when more guests appeared with Minjae.

The camera panned to them. They walked the same path while pulling their own luggage. They greeted the camera as they appeared, but their names weren't introduced right away, keeping the viewers guessing.

The live comments section on the streaming platforms lit up instantly because of it.

"Wait, who are the other three?? I don't recognize them."

"Did the PD-nim change the show format? All rookies today??"

"Are they actors too? Idols? Models??"

"That girl looks familiar… was she in a web drama or something?"

"Is this a hidden rookie special or what?? I'm so curious!"

"Woah! I can't wait for this ep."

The show's hosts looked just as intrigued as the people. One of them pointed and said,

"Wow, you're all so fresh-faced today. Are you all new to variety shows?"

"Well, it's not my first time filming a variety show." Minjae chuckled, rubbing the back of his neck.

But the three answered that it was their first time.

The episode continued with the cast and guests doing their usual self-introductions and playing ice-breaking games.

With each scene, more and more people began to take an interest in the new faces, especially in Minjae, whose relaxed smile and unexpectedly witty comebacks won the hearts of many.

The comments didn't slow down as the episode progressed.

@kvarietyqueen: omg Minjae is so lowkey funny??? like awkward but in a charming way.

@dailyminj: Minjae went an actor to a model to a variety show king really fast 😭😭

@Jamink_: Yura is the girl with Minjae right? She looks absolutely gorgeous!

@BoyMama: Seojin is also pretty! She seems quite shy though.

Foll𝑜w current novels on fɾēewebnσveℓ.com.

@Bbmhyt: Lol that Jihoon guy is so funny. Hahahah.

Within the first 15 minutes of the episode, 3 Days & 2 Nights shot up in real-time trends on XYZ. The keywords #3Days2Nights, #NamMinjae, #VarietyRookieSpecial, and even #WhoAreTheseGuests were all trending in the top 10 spots.

Clips from the show also began circulating online almost immediately, especially Minjae's funny interaction with the cast. Even though the episode was filled with rookies, the fans were also quickly falling for the dynamics between them.

They had good chemistry with each other, and the way they worked together during the missions made viewers even more curious about them.

"Wait—so they're all in the same drama?? I NEED it now. When is it airing??"

"I think this will be their promotion for their drama in January!"

"Oh wait, for the drama festival?"

"Yup. I guess that's it."

"Woah, the drama must be good then if their chemistry is that good!"

"I can't wait for this drama!"

"I hope it will be good!"

"I'll immediately add it to my list."

"Does anyone have their wintergram accounts?"

"Can't like guys but I love the energy they bring."

As the show went on, the cast, together the guests went on and played some games. This allowed them to show their personalities.

Jihoon brought laughter to everyone. Yura, on the other hand, surprised people of how smart she was. Soojin, even though she was quiet were also funny and good at games. And then there was Minjae, who surprised everyone with his charm and humor.

People who had only seen him in modeling clips and his scene in The Only way were now discovering a whole new side of him.

@SanaeKpopie: Bro Minjae's duality is crazy. He was so elegant in that photoshoot, and now he's being teased by the cast. I stan.

@eggymuffin: Minjae's the type to look like a prince but trip over his own shoelaces and laugh it off. I'm obsessed 😭

@lunarisglow: Yura being a trivia queen and still looking unbothered?? What an Icon behavior.

@tangerinecloud: "Can we talk about how Soojin is lowkey hilarious? That deadpan delivery? I lost it."

@hyunoonie: "Jihoon needs his own show I swear. He was born for variety lmaoo."

As the episode neared its end, the energy remained in all time high. The cast and guests shared laughter, meals, and silly punishments for losing games, all while they bonded naturally on the screen.

The chemistry between the rookies and the regular members felt surprisingly good, as if they had been part of the show for years.

By the time the final game of the day ended, the cameras then shifted and the scene changed to them getting ready to go to sleep. They showed the small moments between the cast and the guest, especially when they were surrounding the bonfire and talking among themselves.

@chaemoonlight: I didn't expect to love this episode so much?? This rookie lineup is gold 🥹

@grapefruitmama: Best 3 Days 2 Nights episode in a WHILE. I can't wait for the next episode next week."

@varietyinsider: "The synergy this episode was ✨chef's kiss✨We were laughing earlier, but now, it was such a heartwarming way to end the episode.

@kvws: I hope next week's episode will be as good as this one! I'll definitely set up an alarm!
