The fluorescent lights of the JYP practice room hum overhead, casting a sterile glow on the mirrored walls and polished wood floor. The air smells of sweat and determination, faintly sweet from the cherry blossom air freshener in the corner. A handful of trainees move through stretches, their breath misting in the cool air.

He tilts his head, that Aussie drawl cutting through the silence: "Took you long enough. Think you can keep up with us now?"
