"Strangers, huh? Well, for the meantime there is no helping it. I wanted to talk to you before Jin Hwan Hyung came. I thought it would be better if you knew everything beforehand. For you to continue with the activities and as an idol, you need to learn mori as soon as possible. For singing and dancing, you have to put thrice the effort other members are putting in. And I know it might get hard to bear sometimes at those times I would like you to come to talk to me. I will try my best in guiding you and helping you. I know it might be hard for you to trust someone you don't know, but I wish you could try. Vice president gave you a deadline of two months to prove that you can continue with no hitch."
Even though haneul wasn't that close to old mi Jung, he still knew how much he wanted to debut. As the leader, he had to reassure the members and help them as much as he could. So even if he knew almost nothing about mi Jung, he would support him no matter what.
Moreover, maybe this way they would get closer. Haneul didn't want to admit, but he was embarrassed by himself. He knew mi Jung for almost ten years but if people asked him what he liked to eat, he wouldn't be able to answer it.
Grace didn't expect to hear something so touching from a stranger and she realized the leader wasn't that close to mi Jung. She had to acknowledge the efforts of this guy.
He wanted to live up to his position as a leader by supporting her. But for Grace, she had been under the psychological pressure of dying for over twenty years. She knew she wouldn't break that easily.
"I understand. Thank you for thinking about my well being. I will try my best and work hard so I won't drag the group. I will depend on you from now on."
Haneul gave a reassuring smile and looked at his watch. Jin Hwan Hyung will be here in a few minutes, he thought. There was an awkward silence. Since both people didn't know what to talk about with the other, so both stayed silent. After a few minutes, grace asked about other members. Learning from a file and hearing from another member was different.
"Can you tell me about the other members? I haven't got the time to check their files yet. I would like to hear about them from you since you are the leader you must have a lot of things about them."
Haneul was more than happy to speak about his members. "Sure! I will show their photos from the files so you can identify them. Min Jae Hwan is one of our main dancers. He is twenty-one this year, so he is two years younger than you. He is taciturn at first, but after getting to know him, he is a kid with a laid-back personality. Even though he looks a little intimidating, he is a softie inside. He likes to cook and play online games. He can get noisy when he is playing games, though."
In the picture was a young man with short chestnut hair. He had a sharp look in his eyes, probably because his eyebrows looked like he was frowning. He had full lips and a sharp nose. He looked intimidating, but grace could see that he was just a puppy who didn't know how to put facial expressions.
Turning the page, haneul talked about other members. "Ah, this one is a little troublesome. He likes to joke around a lot and keeps bugging the members. He is a very energetic kid. I guess it is because he is young. He is only eighteen, so he hasn't matured yet. He enjoys clinging to people a lot too. He is one of the main vocals in the group. His stage name is joongi. And he can't eat spicy food at all." An adolescent boy with blond hair that comes to his eyes. Big, doe eyes that you can see through the youthfulness and a mischievous glint. Yoon Joon Gi. He looked very cute. Like a very cute devil.
