Not Just For Show
When nineteen-year-old engineering student Sky is scouted by Dream Entertainment, he thinks it’s a scam—until life throws him into financial uncertainty and he decides to take the leap. What starts as a desperate attempt to help his family quickly evolves into something far more complicated: a chance to star in a reality show where contestants pair up and compete for a coveted lead role in a new Boys’ Love (BL) series.
Night, a successful but emotionally guarded model, isn’t the type to sign on for flashy reality shows—until he sees Sky’s casting photo and feels something he can’t explain. Against his manager’s advice and his own better judgment, he joins the project, drawn to the boy with the shy smile and uncertain eyes.
Thrown into a house with six striking and wildly different contestants, Sky and Night are assigned roommates—others, not each other—and must navigate awkward first impressions, lip-sync battles, late-night conversations, and the growing tension between competition and connection. As the cameras roll and emotions blur, the question that hanging in the air: Is this just a path to fame in the entertainment industry—or is it something real?
Is it all just for show?

Chapter: Trapped in Your EyesAfter finishing the modeling workshop, the contestants were driven back to the villa. The sun had already dipped past the horizon, leaving a mellow orange glow that reflected on the car windows. The air was heavy with exhaustion—but also quiet buzzes of excitement.Aston and Kim, who had been dramatically vocal during the workshop, groaned in unison as they stepped into the van.“Finally, we get to enjoy this giant house for ourselves,” Aston announced, stretching his arms like he had just returned from war.Kim nodded. “Yeah, we can hog the kitchen and hot tub without feeling guilty.”But their tone betrayed them. Underneath the dramatic sighs and exaggerated stretches was something else—a subtle disappointment. Neither of them had ma

Chapter: Walk on the Runway, But don’t run awayAfter getting to know Night more during the dinner, Sky returned to his room visibly lighter. His usual cautious aura had softened. His mind kept replaying their conversation—about how Night had no siblings, how he started modeling when he was seventeen, and how he only spoke when he truly wanted someone to listen.Night was so different from Sky, yet there was something about him that pulled Sky in—something that made him want to know more.When he opened the door, he found Aron and Kim sitting on the carpeted floor, playing a mobile game. It looked like the two had also grown closer during dinner."Someone's glowing," Aron said as Sky dropped down onto the bed, trying not to smile."He's not denying it," Kim added, glancing up from his phone for a second be

Chapter: Candle light dinnerAfter the last pair wrapped up their shoot, the instructors clapped their hands and thanked the contestants.“That’s it for today’s workshop!” one of them announced. “You all did great. Now go rest up while we wait for the votes result. We’ll announce the results after sunset!”The staff brought out trays of snacks and drinks to the waiting area. Most of the guys still had makeup on—just slightly faded from the shoot—but no one cared. After the tension of the photoshoot, even small cookies felt like luxury.Those who had skipped lunch earlier were now hovering near the snack trays like bees around honey.Aron grabbed two soft buns from the tray, stuffing one into his mouth before holding the other out toward Sky. &ldq

Chapter: PhotoshootSky woke up feeling disoriented.Last night, he could barely sleep, his heart still fluttering from the anonymous letter. Aron had teased him a bit about his dreamy expression but didn't pry. Somehow, Sky felt like Aron already knew who it was from.For a moment, he forgot where he was. The unfamiliar ceiling reminded him—he was at the Dream Entertainment workshop, a mix of reality show chaos and career-defining opportunity. The memory of the previous day's events rushed in all at once.He sat up, glanced at the room's soft, stylish decor, and blinked at the figure still sleeping soundly on the other bed. Right. He was sharing a room with Aron.It was only 7 AM, but Sky was already freshened up. The crisp suburban air called to him, so he stepped out onto the balco

Chapter: Secret LetterWith full stomachs and hearts slightly more open than they were that morning, the six contestants leaned back in their chairs, dinner plates nearly wiped clean. Laughter still echoed from the corners of the dining room—mostly from Kim and Ten’s antics, and Aron’s dramatic retelling of how he almost died trying to get rice.The atmosphere had shifted. Walls lowered. Smiles became easier.Suddenly, the soft chime of background music faded out, replaced by the familiar voice of the host through the ceiling speakers.“Good evening, everyone! Are you full now?”“Yes!!” came a chorus of happy responses—everyone except the two alphas, Sam and Ni

Chapter: It’s Getting SpicyThe contestants moved together through the hallway, curiosity buzzing between them.The First Room they peeked into was simple but charming. Medium-sized, it had two single beds, a small wooden wardrobe, and pale yellow curtains that fluttered slightly with the breeze from the open window. The view outside revealed a vast stretch of green rice fields, glowing under the early evening sun.“Oh, this is cute,” Ten said softly, walking in and sitting on one of the beds. “Kind of cozy, right?”“No bathroom though,” Sam noted, pointing to the empty wall. “We’d have to walk out every time we need a shower or pee.”“But that view…
