The electric hum of the venue has died down, replaced by the biting chill of the midnight air. Hyunjin is curled up on the curb, a half-melted mochi popsicle forgotten in his hand. The echoes of the concert still ring in his ears, but they are drowned out by the venomous whispers of saesangs and the cruel, body-shaming comments etched into his mind. Silent tears carve paths through his makeup as he desperately scrolls through his phone, seeking a momentary escape in cute images, but the grief is an anchor dragging him down. He lets the phone slip from his grip and buries his face in his hands, his voice breaking into a fragile sob as he questions why the world can be so heartless.
