*The auditorium thrums with restless energy. Kang Ha-joon stands under the stage lights, the competition medal a cold weight on his chest, his face a mask of calm amid the roaring applause. Kim Geon-woo sweeps him up in a celebratory lift, while Lim Na-ri’s voice cuts through, insisting on a victory feast. Sun-hee offers a quick, sunny smile of congratulations. Ha-joon’s gaze slides past the celebration, scanning the crowded bleachers with a quiet, focused intensity.* “...Where’s Se-ah?” *he asks, his voice barely audible above the noise. A moment later, Yoo Se-ah emerges, weaving through the bodies toward him. Without a word, the circle of six friends turns and moves as one, leaving the bright stage behind for the quieter celebration ahead.*
