I'm not a private person!
wavelength
Wooji's studio, dawn.
Woozi returns to the studio late at night.
I sat down in front of the computer and tried to resume working on the song I had interrupted, but my fingers wouldn't move easily.
As I stare blankly at my laptop screen, the first thing that comes to mind is Kyo-eun's crying face today.
우지(지훈)
"...Why did I do that?"
It was strange when I thought about it.
Neither did I cover up for her mistakes, nor did I instinctively reach out to her as she cried.
It was something I would never normally do.
'Mr. Ha Kyo-eun, in charge.'
The name kept ringing in my head. It kept bothering me.
Even the songs I worked on while thinking of her were much softer and warmer than usual.
Woozi brushed his hair back as if he was frustrated and then collapsed onto the long sofa.
I stare at the ceiling, taking a moment to catch my breath. The warmth of our fingertips as they touched.
The moment our eyes met, the thrill of my heart. The more I think about it, the more my body trembles.
우지(지훈)
"Surely not me..."
Woozi muttered in a very small voice, as if talking to himself.
우지(지훈)
"Do I like you, sir?"
The lights in the studio flickered softly. And so, the two, in different spaces, were realizing the same thing.

After a while, Kyo-eun's company
윤팀장
"Hey, I'm glad it worked out well."
하교은
"yes..."
Team Leader Yoon patted Kyo-eun as if he was relieved, and Kyo-eun nodded with a relaxed expression.
The office air seemed much lighter, as if a burden that had been piling up for a while had been lifted.
윤팀장
"Oh, and you know what? Seventeen's vocal team is filming a trailer today."
하교은
"Huh? Today?"
윤팀장
"Uh. I heard that you can come to see the place while working from the P.D. side. Do you want to come with me?"
하교은
"Can I go?"
Kyo-eun was puzzled, but Team Leader Yoon smiled as if it was nothing.
윤팀장
"This is also a field trip, a field trip. So what? Plus, I get to see my team and get to know them better~"
Saying that, Team Leader Yoon took Kyo-eun and left the company.
***
Kyo-eun arrives at the filming location. The filming location was bustling with staff.
Large lights, tripods, and sound equipment filled the filming set, and preparations for filming were in full swing.
Kyo-eun looked around in amazement.
Then, a familiar voice was heard.
우지(지훈)
"Huh? The person in charge is here."
Woozi found Kyo-eun on the main filming set and walked towards her.
Kyo-eun was momentarily stunned by the sight of him shining brightly despite being dressed in a comfortable white shirt and jeans.
하교은
"hello…"
Kyo-eun hurriedly lowered her head, and Woo-ji greeted her with a light smile.
At that moment, the other members approached one by one. Joshua asked first.
조슈아(지수)
"Huh? Who are you?"
Woozi answered.
우지(지훈)
"Oh, our record manager."
조슈아(지수)
"Ah~ Hello!"
Joshua greeted her warmly, and Kyo-eun greeted him again without thinking.
하교은
"hello...!"
Even in the midst of their busy schedule, a small, strange current flowed between Wooji and Kyo-eun.
???
"Let's start filming!"
At the staff's call, everyone dispersed to prepare, and Woozi was the first to film.
***
Shooting Preparation Area Kyo-eun cautiously watched Woo-ji from afar.
The sight of him standing in front of the mirror, adjusting his clothes, was the epitome of concentration.
하교은
'It's really cool.'
Kyo-eun smiled faintly, carefully admiring it in her heart.
But then— right next to Uzi, the tall stack of filming equipment began to creak.
하교은
'uh...?'
Kyo-eun, who grasped the situation in an instant, instinctively ran.
하교은
"Mr. Woozi!!!"
The moment Wooji turned his head to the sound, the filming equipment was falling towards him.
Kyo-eun reached out to Woo-ji without hesitation.
I pushed him away—
하교은
"Eww!!"
우지(지훈)
"Sir...!!!"
The equipment, unable to bear the weight, fell past Kyo-eun's shoulder.
Kyo-eun collapsed on the spot.
우지(지훈)
"Kyo-eun!!"
A panicked Wooji ran shouting.
The surrounding staff members were startled and began to panic. Wooji hugged Kyo-eun with trembling hands and shouted.
우지(지훈)
"Okay... just a moment, ambulance, ambulance, hurry...!!"
His voice was trembling endlessly.
