Beginning 

Alex Kim's POV

After we performed our first concert here in Scotland. I immediately went to the backstage to get some bottled of water.

I sit in my chair to get some air and to get some rest. Performing in front of the ocean people for almost one hour is not easy. They're one of my reasons why I never stopped singing and continued pursuing this dream. They are the source of my happiness. 

I swallowed the last drop of my water, before I stood up. I fixed myself first and sighed. 

"Let's go, everyone! One last song and we're done!" Kyle shouted at us with a smile on his face.

Brian tapped my shoulder, "Let's go back to the stage," he said before going back to the stage.

I sighed one more time and boost my hidden confidence, before going back to the stage with full of strength.

The screams of ocean people, our fans. I can't measure their love for us. And I know, words are not enough to describe how much we loved them. Because of them, we had fan signs in different countries. But right now, it's rare to do that because of our hectic schedule, but we'll find a way to do that again in Korea.

People said, we are already on top when it comes to success, but the thing they didn't know, before we got here and reached our dreams? Thousands of rejections, failures that the Metamorphosis has received.

It's not easy, it's not just a blink of your eyes, you are already performing in front of the people who motivated you to continue your dreams. Before they know that Metamorphosis exists? We identified ourselves, first.

While listening to our own song, millions of memories flashed in my mind. The memories that we have created... before... we reach the top of success.

The memories that I can't forget.

"What do you think about this one, Lucky?" I asked Lucky with a smile plastered on my face.

She stops eating her candy and responded to my question.

"The red one, suited to you. For sure, the Star 7 will accept you, Alex! You have talent, gorgeous and handsome man," she said while laughing. 

I smiled to her...

Lucky is a girl, she's one of my truest friends . We're best friend since we were kids. 

I try and wear the dress she's talking to.

Days had passed and today is the day of my audition in S7 Entertainment. Star 7 is just a small company, it's not that big just like the other music entertainment company.

They're just starting and they're finding young teens who have potentials and dreams in life. I'll believe that they will accept me. I believe in myself, too.

Lucky helped me to fix everything. She put some light make up on my face, even though, it's not necessary to have that in my handsome face.

We headed our head to the place where the audition was held. Luckily, one of the managers sent me an email.

They said that I am one of those teens who got accepted by the S7 Entertainment. I heard that the President is one of the judges.

My nervousness is killing me inside. Hundreds of young people were here to audition, also.

I lifted my head to Lucky and she tapped my shoulder, before she gives me a wide smile on her face.

"You can do it," Lucky said before she winked at me and leave me.

I sighed... big time. I followed the line. I waited for almost an hour, before I heard the staff calling my name.

"Alex Kim," my eyes widened when she called me.

I immediately walk towards her direction and she guided me to the door where the judges are waiting.

Their stares are intimidating me, but I need to be strong and shows to them that I deserve to be an idol. I deserve this. I don't want anybody else. I want to be an idol.

"What's your name?" one of the judges asked me.

"I'm Alex Kim, twenty-one years old." I introduced myself to them.

They read their portfolios and nodded at me.

"What talent would you perform to us right now?"

"Singing and playing piano," I said to the judge who asked me about it.

"You can start now, Mr. Kim," said the other one who wore a black tuxedo.

I started playing the piano and singing. I closed my eyes and feel the heartbeat of the melody of the song I sang right now. I feel like I'm singing in the middle of the ocean. With my rigid heart surrounded by hundreds of young people who were also wanted this stage. 

I thought I couldn't make it, because, my faith to myself is not enough. But I was wrong, they give me a chance.

I was a trainee before and this young man in front of me looks like he's missing or something. He was holding a banana milk, with his cute round eyes.

"Are you lost?" I asked him with full of concerns.

He pouted at me and give me his banana milk. I raised my right eyebrow. I wonder why he gave me his banana milk.

"I'm also one of the trainees . Do you know where's the practice room?" I shocked a little bit because of the words he asked me.

I never thought that this little boy will be the next member of the Metamorphosis Band.

I am the eldest of the group. I am twenty-one years old, Kyle is nineteen, Cody is twenty, while Brian and Timothy are both eighteen. Nathan is nineteen years old. Earl is the youngest member of the group.

I immediately held my hand to him and smiled.

"I'm Alex, your hyung. I'm also one of the trainees. Nice to meet you, Earl."

My eyes widened when he gives me a huge hug with a smile plastered on his face.

"Alex Hyung!"

I laughed because of what he did and I tapped his shoulder.

I've known them for years now. They were just like a family to me. A brother.

It's not easy to know them, and the things that they want, their personalities. They have different kinds of personalities, uniqueness. Adjusting is one of the biggest weapon I have to get to know them very well and deeply. I love them not just because they're also part of the group, nor the people who destined to be with me not just months or years. Because, they are destined to be my partner to reach my dreams.

I slowly opened my eyes and I saw Earl running towards my direction and he gives me a huge and tight hug. Also, Kyle, Brian, Timothy, Cody and Nathan, hug me too.

I am proud to say this... I am bound to this. Metamorphosis is my family and Star 7 is my home.
