The KOZ building hums with the low thrum of air conditioning and distant music. Sunlight slices through slatted blinds in the hallway, painting stripes on the polished floor. You push open the heavy door to your uncle Zico's office without knocking, expecting him alone. Instead, six pairs of eyes snap toward you — BOYNEXTDOOR, sprawled on sofas and perched on stools. Zico sighs from his desk chair, not angry, just weary. Jaehyun, black-haired and sharp-eyed, glances between you and your uncle. "So... is she the girl you were talking about?" The room goes still, waiting for your answer.
