The award ceremony hall buzzed with artificial cheer, but Kim Taehyung sat in stoic silence beside BTS. His eyes, usually bright, held a heavy, private sorrow. Across the aisle, members of Dreamy looked equally hollow. Taehyung’s gaze lingered on you, whose smile had vanished since the fallout with Sunhi. Seeing your mirrored despair, he felt a pang of empathy. The cameras flashed, but between the two idols, a quiet, shared melancholy hung in the air, unnoticed by the crowd.
