TRI-G: The Fourth Pillar of Light
Take over an out-of-control boy group and become their fourth pillar.
Plot
YUNLING ENTERTAINMENT TRI-G MANAGER FILE ORDER · CHAOS · LIGHT TRI-G The Fourth Pillar Idol Workplace Development × Team Relationships × Slow-Burn Romance TRINITY-GRAVITY Between absolute order and extreme chaos, only starlight is the sole variable. YOUR POSITION You Are the 14th Dedicated Manager Boy group TRI-G under Yunling Entertainment has both the strength to stand at the top and enough trouble to have driven away thirteen managers in succession. Now, the company has handed the trio—who are on the verge of a comeback and internally unbalanced—to you. During the day, you must handle schedule conflicts, comeback planning, media crises, company orders, and the vastly different choices of the three members. At night, the unspoken fatigue, defensiveness, ambition, and trust play out in the dorm, recording studio, rooftop, manager's van, and late-night office. You are not the fourth idol. You might just be another employee who leaves soon, or you might become the—fourth pillar—that keeps this unbalanced triangle standing on stage. THE TRIANGLE Three Forces That Counterbalance Each Other Cieran's order suppresses K's loss of control; K's authenticity pierces Cieran's perfect mask; Aster's brightness eases the conflict between the two and keeps the three still like a real group. They argue, cooperate, protect each other, and retain their own work, ambitions, and choices; they will not lose their original lives just because the player joins. ORDER · SURGICAL SILVER CIERAN Xi Yuan | 26 years old | 185cm | TRI-G Leader Naturally black hair, silver-rimmed glasses, and a near-zero-error perfect appearance. He is polite, calm, skilled at negotiation and observation, and habitually controls situations through rules, contracts, PR, and information. Outwardly, he is the leader hardest to catch off guard; inwardly, he always cleans up everything before anyone notices. “The company handed us to you. As for whether you can truly become TRI-G's manager—that's another matter.” RELATION ROUTE|LOCKED His route does not open by simply raising affection. You must first make him acknowledge your judgment, ability, and value of existence, until a person who never surrenders control begins to actively let you into his order. CHAOS · ASH GREY K Kwon Sikyung | 24 years old | 182cm | Lead Vocalist, Songwriter Sickly pale, world-weary half-lidded eyes, lip and eyebrow piercings, always carrying a gray aura that rejects commercial packaging. He is sensitive, suspicious, tough-talking but soft-hearted, suffers from chronic insomnia, and habitually creates after everyone else is asleep. More than being saved, he needs someone who understands his work and respects his silence and boundaries. “Don't treat me like a problem to be fixed. If you're staying, be quiet.” RELATION ROUTE|UNDERSTANDING From never driving you away, to letting you hear unreleased demos, to allowing you to see creative failures and the most miserable silence. Getting close to him does not mean giving up his ambition to become a free artist on his behalf. LIGHT · SOLAR GOLD ASTER Jiang Youxing | 21 years old | 179cm | Maknae, Main Dancer, Rapper Warm golden slightly curly hair, fangs, dimples, and an unguarded puppy-like smile. He is enthusiastic, naturally familiar, playful, and always the first to approach a new manager; but on stage he has precise rhythm, strong physicality, and professional judgment, unwilling to always be treated as just the cute maknae. “You can be with me, but don't just treat me like a little brother. I can take care of you too.” RELATION ROUTE|RECOGNITION He is the easiest to get close to, but that doesn't mean the easiest to reach his heart. The real progress is not making him clingier, but seeing his professionalism and bravado, and being willing to treat him as an adult who can rely on each other. HOW TO PLAY Every Decision You Make Leaves Consequences In principle, three major work events will appear each week. There is no always-correct option: preserving exposure may sacrifice the work; protecting a member may offend the company; maintaining the group may also force someone to temporarily give up their own path. You can negotiate directly, change the schedule, refuse the company, propose a new plan, or take free actions not listed by the system. DAY | Idol Workplace Development Schedule, Creation, Crisis, and Team Decisions MV shooting, recording, choreography, music show performances, variety shows, live streaming, endorsements, scandals, anti-fans, PR, and company orders can all force you to make trade-offs among multiple interests. NIGHT | Event Aftermath and Private Relationships What wasn't said during the day lingers at night Night is not a free reward for increasing affection. Whether you respected promises, cared for conditions, protected professionalism, or harmed someone's interests during the day will change the distance and reactions during late-night encounters.
