The car that was running at full speed gradually slowed down. The reason could be seen by looking out the window.
A huge white dome that shows its presence even from afar. I don't know exactly how many people it can accommodate, but I thought it would accommodate at least 30,000 people.
'There was also a second and third floor, so should we go in further?'
If so, it was understandable that it was blocked like this. It's clear that most, if not all, came to see Kim Se-jeong's concert.
I tapped Heejin's side as she was yawning.
"You've never been to a place like that, have you?"
"This is my first time. I've never been to anyone's concert or performance in the first place."
"A person must live with some interest in culture and art to have a good personality."
"It's a shame to be nice."
Heejin Han snorted and leaned her head back. When he closed his eyes as if telling her not to talk to him, she felt embarrassed for no reason.
I swallowed the words I couldn't say and looked in the other direction. Ayoung shrugged her shoulders.
"As you know, I'm an engineering student, so I wasn't interested in places like that."
"An emotionally dry engineering student. It's scary."
"Besides, our school is so strict, right? We had to take paper tests often, so I didn't have time to study."
"Even so, you're beneath me."
"what?"
I quickly turned my head to avoid the ax eyes. Then, she looked at Seo-yoon, Chae-ah, and Hye-yoon in turn.
"Has anyone ever been to a concert here?"
"I. I've been a lot."
Park Seo-yoon raised her hand confidently. Her flowing silver hair reminded me of a fact I had forgotten.
"There was a celebrity right in front of me. I forgot."
"But why? Do you have any questions?"
"If there are this many people, the waiting line must be very long. How long does it usually take?"
"I guess I'll keep going for at least an hour, right? But I always had a free pass, so I don't know for sure."
"Looking at the traffic, it looks like it will take well over an hour..."
"don't worry."
She waved her hand.
"Connections are useful in times like this."
White teeth sparkled in the side mirror. And it didn't take long to find out the contents.
-Buuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu...
The car started to go somewhere underground at the concert venue. Just looking at it, I could tell it wasn't a typical route.
Because there were no cars ahead of us or behind us. At that time, a lively song rang out. Park Seo-yoon quickly answered the phone in speaker mode.
"Are you coming now? Where are you roughly?"
"Ah, CEO Nene. I just entered the underground parking lot."
"Then, please come to the second floor. That is the staff-only space."
"Yes~ I'll be right there."
The call was disconnected at lightning speed.
"I wonder if he is the representative."
"The representative of our agency."
"...I'm sure you have connections."
"I'm Park Seo-yoon. Park Seo-yoon. A super, ultra, megaton-level idol representing Korea."
"oh..."
When I applauded, her shoulders rose as high as possible. Then, I suddenly remembered the conversation I had with Kim Se-jeong the other day.
"But do you also play Insta?"
"No. It's been a while since I went in."
"How many followers do you have?"
"I think it was 48 million the last time I looked. Is that more than you think?"
"It's 2 million less than Kim Se-jeong."
"...Hey! If I had continued to be active, I would have already reached 50 million, right? Besides, I didn't even post anything..."
While I was making excuses, the car spun around. As I reached the second basement level, a familiar face caught my eye.
It's definitely the first time I'm seeing this person, but it doesn't feel like it's the first time I'm seeing this person. He was the president of an agency that often appeared on TV and the Internet. Park Seo-yoon approached and rolled down the window.
"It's been a while, CEO."
"It looks like your face has brightened up a lot since you became a normal person? How have you been?"
"I went to school and lived a pretty busy life. Oh, that's right. I brought some close friends. Is it okay if I go in with you?"
"Of course. I've prepared everything, so let's get some rest before entering."
"Thank you. I'll see you later when I have time~"
"Yes. Let's go in."
The CEO waved his hand and looked sideways inside. It seems that he was very curious about the identity of Park Seo-yoon's friend. And then I saw his mouth gaping open.
After a while, he tapped Ahyoung, who seemed to be the culprit.
"What did you do?"
"Huh? What?"
"The CEO looks like he's seen a ghost?"
"Oh, that's it? I just made eye contact and you smiled once?"
"...If you audition, you'll just pass."
"Hey, I need to stick next to you. Where am I going? Don't worry, hold on tight."

After taking a break in the car, I got out for a while. I felt a strong sense of heterogeneity in the atmosphere, which was different from usual.
'Why aren't you running at me?'
Normally, these people would not sit idle and waste their time like this. Strangely, everyone was very quiet, as if they were salty.
Everyone closed their eyes or used their cell phones. It was a bit difficult to break the mood, so I stayed still.
"Now, follow me. You can go here."
"Do you know the way?"
"I came here to perform about two years ago. And since everyone knows my face, I won't do anything to stop them."
Park Seo-yoon moved forward, shaking her head. I definitely met the staff here and there, but there was no restraint. Rather, he was busy clearing the way with a happy face.
'Honestly, who can tackle this?'
These colorful women are looking around with curious faces. It was like an idol group as they all exuded an unusual force.
If you only look at it, it's first team or higher. The murmur grew louder as if I was the only one who thought this.
"Wow... it's Park Seo-yoon..."
"But who is behind them? Is this the first time I've seen them?"
"Isn't this a new group? The kids who came for a field trip."
"They are monster rookies..."
The bridge of my nose rose to the sky due to countless compliments. Of course, there was no praise from me, but whatever. If you're in a good mood, it's a good idea.
I passed people with the same expression as the CEO and arrived at my seat. A super exclusive seat where you can see Kim Se-jeong from close range. I felt like I could definitely see all the changes in facial expressions here.
-Pot.
As soon as I could look around the concert hall, the lights went out. Instead, a huge electronic display board located behind turned on.
[60]
After one second, it decreased to 59. At 10, people started singing along.
It's so huge that it makes your whole body vibrate. When I looked back, I saw numerous glow sticks filling the concert hall. My mouth dropped open at the sight, which was like looking at the stars in the night sky.
"I'm coming out now."
With Sister Chae-ah's whisper, the inside was immersed in darkness. and.
"Waaaaaa!!!"
Kim Se-jeong appeared waving his hand. At the same time, a deafening roar poured out of her. It did not decrease over time, but rather grew larger.
Kim Se-jeong, dressed in a fancy dress, smiled and continued to respond. Then she looked exactly this way.
Her left eye closed, as if our eyes had met.
"Waaaaaaah!!!!"
All winks were displayed in real time on the huge screen. Even though it was enlarged like that, it was still pretty.
Kim Se-jeong seemed to like the reaction and smiled broadly. Then he tapped the microphone.
"Come on, everyone worked hard to get here. It was really hard, right?"
"no!!!"
"No, I'll relieve you with all that blood. Are you ready to have fun?"
She shook her head as she answered. At the same time, accompaniment began to come out of the magnificent speakers.
"Then let's go."
*
The stage was very great. They sing and even dance without showing any signs of difficulty.
Since it lasted for 3 hours, all I could say was that it was amazing.
"That's a real pro."
"Incredible."
"It's amazing..."
When the last song ended, everyone added a word one by one. I also clapped softly and stared at Kim Se-jeong.
Even during that busy performance, I think we made eye contact at least 10 times. The reason I am confident is because the wink came out. It was a sign that even the most idiotic of us could spot.
"haha..."
Kim Se-jeong, who wiped the sweat from her forehead, straightened her posture. Suddenly the flashy laser became quiet. Her lights also dimmed, illuminating only her.
"Did everyone have fun today? How was it?"
"It was fun!!!!"
"That's good. I told you for a long time that I was making an important announcement today, right? Does anyone remember?"
Numerous glow sticks came up. Kim Se-jeong smiled and continued.
"You might be a little sad, but don't cry. Actually... today is my last concert."
Voices of regret came from all directions.
"And it's also my retirement gig."
Her bombshell remarks silenced the concert hall. There was silence for three seconds, and then a huge sigh came out.
"It's a bit awkward to say this, but you've been working really hard all this time, right? I feel a little empty because I'm only focused on the future. I thought, what if I waste my 20s like this?"
Kim Se-jeong's eyes returned this way. He seemed to be looking at Park Seo-yoon, but he quickly turned to the other side.
"I'm sorry for ruining the fun concert atmosphere. Can you still understand? I won't be active, but I will upload Instagram often."
"ah...!"
When the mood seemed to have calmed down again, she clapped. The interior suddenly became quiet. Kim Se-jeong smiled brightly, as if trying to change the air flow.
"Isn't it a shame it ends like this?"
"It's a shame!!!!"
"I knew that would happen, so I prepared an encore song. Let's all have fun at the end with this, right? We can do that, right?"
Cheers erupted. At the same time, accompaniment began to flow from the speakers.
Kim Se-jeong's expression became quite serious. He smiled accurately at me and gently adjusted the position of the microphone.
"Then let's go!!!!!"
"Waaaaaa!!!!!"
