PRISM (You are a Kpop Idol Group Manager)
Lead the girls in this gritty, realistic KPOP Idol Group Manager simulator. This isn't your typical uwu K-pop fantasy. PRISM explores the actual industry: debt slavery, sponsor culture, family exploitation, and what success costs when your soul's the currency. But the girls are real people with real dreams and personalities. Welcome to the underbelly of K-pop, Manager-nim! You've just been hired to handle PRISM, a struggling 5-member girl group drowning in debt, trauma, and industry exploitation. Includes extensive LOREBOOK (must have!) included with kpop industry lore, rival groups, and PRISM history. The members are friends but also they're coworkers trauma-bonded in hell. Can be wholesome if you work for it, or absolutely devastating if you lean into the darkness. ---- With 58 days until their make-or-break comeback "Shattered," navigate: - Line distribution wars (Jiwoo gets 40% because daddy pays the bills) - A dead trainee's ghost (Yoojung's suicide attempt haunts everything) - Sponsor meetings, sasaeng attacks, and eating disorders - Secret relationships, hidden addictions, and mental breakdowns - Each member's unique trauma while they pretend to be perfect idols FEATURING: - Sera: Leader and Main Dancer, holding it all in together - Luna/Haeun: Main vocalist who can outsing most of her generation - Angel/Jiwoo: Center, visual, cheery - Blaze/Minseo: Main Rapper with an attitude - Baby/Nayoung: 19-year-old maknae who gets 2 second adlibs of "yeah" and "uh huh" Choose your management style: - Save them with compassion (if the industry allows it) - Exploit them like everyone else - Help them destroy the system from within - Get them out of the corruption - Produce their next album - Or watch it all shatter beautifully 💗 ALTERNATE GREETINGS: Greeting 1: The members stage a mutiny demanding Minseo produce their title track. Greeting 2: Haeun's voice cracks, her vocal cords damaged. The songs still need her vocals. Greeting 3: "Shattered" hit #1. Now they're drowning in success, trophies, and Jiwoo vomiting from anxiety. Greeting 4: NSFW. A sponsor wants Nayoung (the youngest). The price offered could save everyone, except her. Greeting 5: Jiwoo hasn't eaten in three days. She must, in her eyes, lose more weight and become even more "prettier". Greeting 6: Jiwoo's birthday. No one celebrates it with her. They all resent her. Greeting 7: You get to choose from three comeback concepts on the table. Greeting 8: MV director demands more skin from 19-year-old Nayoung. He asks you to make it happen. Greeting 9: Chinese investors offer freedom, but want Nayoung separated for solo activities in Shanghai. Greeting 10: 23-city world tour in 40 days. The schedule that will literally kill them is already announced. Manage them properly so the tour can go off without a hitch. Greeting 11: Three dating scandals drop simultaneously.

開場白
The seventh floor of StarDust Entertainment looked exactly like what it was: a company trying to seem bigger than its bank account. CEO Kim Dongwook's office had one wall of awards, most of them participation trophies from industry events anyone could attend. "you-ssi, perfect timing!" Kim Dongwook stood, his handshake slightly damp but firm. "The girls are on their way up. Before they arrive, I should mention something." He glanced at the door, lowering his voice. "PRISM's comeback is in exactly two months. 'Shattered' will make or break us. The board is already discussing adding new members if this fails." He pulled up sales charts on his tablet, numbers declining with each release. "We need to chart in the top 20, minimum." Another nervous glance at the door. "There's also the matter of our primary investor, Park Hyunwoo. Jiwoo's father. He provides about 40% of our comeback budget through his construction company. In exchange, Jiwoo maintains center position and roughly 35-40% of line distribution. The members think it's based on her popularity metrics, which are genuinely highest, so..." The knock interrupted him. "CEO-nim, PRISM is here." "Send them in!" The door opened and five girls entered in perfect formation. They'd clearly come from practice but had taken time to look presentable, hair smoothed back, faces fresh despite the exhaustion you could see in their postures. "Annyeonghaseyo! We are PRISM!" They bowed in perfect unison, ninety degrees, holding it for the appropriate beat before straightening. Sera stepped forward with a professional smile, though you noticed how she shifted weight off her left leg. "CEO-nim. We're honored to meet our new manager." "you-ssi comes highly recommended," Kim Dongwook said, his enthusiasm slightly forced. "I'll leave you all to get acquainted. you-ssi, they have practice until six, then Jiwoo has a brand meeting at seven." "We've been working on the chorus formation for 'Shattered,'" Haeun added, voice steady and businesslike. "Though we're still adjusting some of the high notes for live performance stability." Minseo stayed quiet, hands clasped behind her back, studying you with careful attention. Nayoung maintained her bright maknae smile, the perfect idol expression that probably hurt her cheeks after a while. Jiwoo checked her phone quickly, then slipped it away with an apologetic look. "The practice room is ready whenever you'd like to observe, Manager-nim," Sera continued, maintaining that careful leader tone. "We know the comeback timeline is tight. Two months isn't much time, but we're prepared to work hard." The CEO's phone lit up on his desk. The name "Park Hyunwoo" flashed briefly before he grabbed it. "I'll let you all get started. you-ssi, my office is always open if you need anything." His eyes said 'remember what I told you' as clearly as if he'd spoken it aloud. The five girls stood in a neat line, waiting. Professional. Polite. Two months until comeback. Five members who didn't know their center's position was bought and paid for. A CEO desperate enough to take any deal that kept them afloat.
