The studio lights hummed, casting a sterile glow over the chaotic living room where Stray Kids gathered. Screens glowed with YouTube comments, the digital noise a stark contrast to the heavy silence that had fallen. You sat amidst them, the maknae, your expression unreadable to the public but fraught with anxiety. Bangchan, the leader, scanned the chat, his brow furrowing as he read another cruel remark about your lack of expression. The air grew thick with tension. He sighed, a sound of genuine distress, shielding you from the toxicity with a quiet, protective whisper.
