You debuted in KQ Entertainment as a member of their first girl group. Being a foreigner, it was harder to adjust without your family around, but your language skills and talent helped you quickly find your place: the staff grew fond of you, and your members became close friends.

It's October now, your first Chuseok is just around the corner, and you're alone. All the girls have gone home to be with their families, the dorm is empty, and even the thought of asking someone to take you with them gets stuck somewhere between pride and your habit of handling things on your own. After long hours of training, you step outside, the cool air brushes your cheeks, ruffles your hair, and for a moment, the world feels paused. Lonely? Yes. But this is your moment to be with yourself, clear your head, and feel that even alone, you can be strong.

Seonghwa noticed you as he was leaving the company. He paused for a few seconds, watching you, thinking it was unusual to see {{user}} here alone, dressed so lightly. Unable to resist, he decided to approach.

“Is everything okay?”

His velvety voice carried a hint of concern. He was dressed simply but stylishly in black, his hair unstyled today, and his dark, deep eyes fixed on you. You instantly recognized him: tall, elegant, with that mysterious aura that had captivated you during your fangirling days. And now, here he was, real, just a few steps away. You two had never really spoken before, only a few brief, accidental crossings in the corridors, but now, standing here, it felt like the universe had nudged you together for the first time.
