All So Jung Min has wanted ever since her dad got remarried has been to move out of the family home without hurting his feelings. Given her penchant for dance routines, she figures she can kill two birds with one stone by becoming an idol trainee and moving to the trainee dorms. If only it was as simple as that...This is her story as she navigates through trainee life, trying to squeeze in her precious eight hours of sleep everyday while keeping up with her schoolwork, forming new friendships, rediscovering old friends in very unexpected places and in the process discovering a great many things about herself. Now that she is being given the privilege of seeing behind the facade presented to the rest of the world, she is determined to see how far she can make it in the entertainment world.If she doesnt run screaming for the hills first, that is. ForewordGreetings, denizens of AFF!! Nice to meet yall! This is my first time attempting a story here (or anywhere, really) so please bear with me because Im still figuring stuff out as I go.       This story was inspired by the many (some bad, some good) idolau and traineelife stories Ive read on this site. This is my attempt at a realistic story in that genre. Just a heads up, while there will be a love-line with Sehun and appearances by most of Exo and some other idols, the story will mainly be about Jung Min and her journey, especially in the first few chapters.      The story will most likely have a lot of chapters, and might move too slowly for some, so be warned. Having said all of that, I do hope you give this story a chance and see if you like it! Comment and let me know what you think if you like (or dont like) the story. Comments and subscribers are what keep me going!      Shin-oppa from Pomelo Graphics was kind enough to make me this amazing poster (and the background as well), and Im not embarassed to admit that Ive been sneaking looks at the poser every 5 seconds since Ive gotten it. Its just so beautiful, sniff... Shes really good at what she does, so head on over if you are in need of any graphics!       Also, I only own my plot and original characters, so dont sue me. And PLEASE dont plagiarise.      Right, so I think thats everything I wanted to say, and uh, please read my story?  Peace!Love,PrathyuUPDATE (28/11/15): I somehow ended up writing an angsty one-shot from dear old Suhos POV when he was still a trainee. Check it out if you feel like it. :)The Dark Side Of The Moon
