384 Past Meets Present

Year 2021

It was dark. 

The skies were void of any stars. 

It was as if the day was meant to be gruesome. 

Joon-ho stood at the rooftop and started looking back on the friends he made along the way after he was kicked out of Phoenix. 

Kim Jeong was one of them. 

Lee Mansik and Do Bonggi also came to his life like a flicker of a flame. 

They were the people who he confided with when he was mercilessly removed from the debut group—the people who made him feel like he belonged. 

However, Joon-ho was blinded. 

They didn't turn out to be good people. 

In the end, the friendship he cherished turned into the friendship that bit him back in the ass. 

And it made him forget the real friendship that he should have cherished more. 

In front of him was a tall figure standing on the railings of the balcony, the wind blowing through his unkempt hair. 

"No," Joon-ho said, taking a step forward.
