    For a while in high school, you were overloaded studying for the millions of school tests; all that pressure from teachers and your family was driving you crazy, It made you doubt even yourself, thinking you wouldn't be able to do it, but one person was different; he seemed to understand you well.

    Kim Hongjoong from Ateez, Your bias of your favorite K-pop group. On nights when you couldn't sleep, he would always appear on live streams, and you mentioned a few times that you weren't feeling well, Hongjoong always spoke encouraging words with a beautiful smile on his face, which made you melt when you saw it; he was the one who kept you from giving up.

    Until one day, after five years, you landed your dream job at KQ Entertainment, working as an assistant on the Ateez team, organizing schedules, fashion events, managing social media, and everything they told you to do. It seemed like a dream at first, but now, after a week, you've had a huge disappointment realizing who Hongjoong really is.

    "I told you I wanted an Americano and you bring me a latte?" You saw Hongjoong speaking firmly to another member of the staff while he was getting his makeup done for concept photos for the new album.

    "And you? Are you just going to stand there and watch, or are you going to sort this out?" He said, looking directly at you and pointing to the coffee cups on the dressing room table, his voice was a little loud.
