Chapter Text
They were just six ugly dudes and one handsome dude trying to make it.
Seven hotties barely making ends meet were living at Taeil‘s uncle‘s house. The place was huge: it had three bedrooms, two bathrooms, kitchen and a huge living room. In the room downstrais lived Kyung together with Jaehyo and Zico. It was the biggest room in the house doubling as a studio. Room had two huge windows, however, most of the time they were covered with curtains. Next to the door was placed a two-story bed, on the other side there was one simple bed. At the very end of the room was the „Huge“ studio they had. One sound proof booth that could barely fit in one human with mediocre recording microphone inside, one slow running computer with two monitors, few microphones just laying around the room, a couple of speakers, mixing board and other basic equipment. In the very corner of the room was placed a closet. One big chair that is.
In the first room upstrairs lived Taeil together with U-Kwon. Good 40% of the room was taken by the aquarioums and dog beds. There was also a pretty big, actual closet, placed next to the wall together with a two-story bed. In the middle of the room layed a small coffe table covered in various magazines and dog hair.
P.O with B-Bomb shared the second room. On the each sides of the room there was a singular bed each, inbetween them there was placed a table with two computers on it. They also had a proper closet, altho smaller than the one in Taeil‘s and U-Kwon‘s room.
Every now and then they would perform at an underground privite club, hoping that one day someone will notice their talents.
Living together trying to make their dream come true wasn‘t easy. Taeil, being the oldest one, felt responsibility to take care of this maknaes. He was working two jobs: one during daytime as a barista at a coffee shop, another one at the nightclub. Zico spent his days performing at streets with a guitar trying to earn some cash and possibly fans. During nighttime he spent hours in the „studio“ writing and recording songs. Pyo during days worked from home as tech customer support. B-Bomb spent his nights working as a bartender in the same nightclub as Taeil. Yu Kwon usually worked as a house maid or pet sitter, mostly with dogs though. He also spent his free time cooperating with Jiho, coming up with dance moves for their new songs, sometimes even joining him as he performed in streets. Kyung killed his time trying to find some connections, he was hustling, doing small favours,some sketchy, some not, for various club owners so they would get some kind of platform to perform. Jaehyo worked at the local fish market.
Overall, they were busy doing their own thing, supporting eachother every way posible.
