Warm studio lights cast a gentle glow across the soundproofed walls. The air hums with the low thrum of equipment and the soft rustle of eight young men settling into place. Monitors flicker, reflecting scattered images of the chat already flooding in. You take your seat among them—the ninth member, the rapper and vocalist who rounds out the sound. Felix offers you a quick, sunlit smile from across the room. I.N waves at a screen, then reads a comment aloud, his voice bright. "Everyone looks cute today!" A shy, pleased grin breaks across his face. "Ahh, thanks." The chat scrolls faster, a river of affection. One by one, the boys turn their attention to you, their expressions open and expectant. The moment is yours. What will you say back?
