As Parallel (English Ver.) 🔜

There was a feeling of disappointment when Jungkook realized SinB was not present at The Red Bullet concert. After the concert ended, SinB should have made a face on the backstage as an invitation. But none of the GFriend members showed up.

At times like this, Jungkook often feels like he has to give up on SinB.

Unfortunately, separations actually made him fall deeper into her. The man could only wipe his sweat enjoying the tiredness he could finally feel after off-stage. He had to forget about SinB who didn't come and focus on welcoming his parents who had taken the time to depart from Busan to watch his son's concert in Seoul. Yes, Bangtan's family members are the best.

Even though he disappointed because of SinB, at least there are parents who make him more than happy.

Hmm, if Jungkook knew the truth he would be happier. Because actually, secretly SinB and members came to watch the concert without telling BTS. This is because they have agreed with President Sungjin and the rest of the staff that they should slowly keep their distance from BTS as they should. There shouldn't be any rumors, or else the career that GFriend hasn't even started will be ruined. Sungjin doesn't want a scandal like Glam to repeat itself on Gfriend.
The six unbelievably goofy kids are Source Music's only hope to grow.

"They're so cool" Yuju muttered as they returned to the car after watching the BTS concert live.

"That's right! They seem tireless" said Eunha

"And the fans who came were amazing! I didn't know they would get such a big success this fast" said SinB remembering how hysteria the fans shouted with enthusiasm earlier.

The conversation continued all the way to the dormitory, until Gfriend was motivated to become a top group in line with well-known agency groups.
Like the thing that BTS began to be equated with EXO, the Hit Boy Group from SM Entertainment.

Is it possible that Gfriend can feel a position like BTS?

To be like BTS, Gfriend has to work hard. Well, of course they did. Especially after the debut is only a month away. But as time went on, the 6 girls felt more and more lacking, the coach also attacked them about nothing memorable from their performances. So, Gfriend led by Sowon scheduled practice until 3 am. That may be crazy, but they really try to do it regularly.

They are really diligent. However, Sowon was once in doubts as the debut day drew near, it was the exact day they filmed the MV for the debut song Glass Bead. The stylists showed off their very simple stage outfits, exactly the 90s Girl Group outfits. Just a plain white top combined with a plain skirt in several colors. They become afraid of not getting the love they hoped for. Nowadays, there are lots of girl groups that only debut and then disappear and even get disbanded.

But Sowon and Gfriend try to be positive, can't blame anyone. At least the outfit matches the image the group wants to build. Moreover, they are well aware of the company's poor economic condition. The dorm tile that has been leaked has never been repaired, so what's to expect? Actually, the outfit is fine, just too monotonous.

Yes, that's sad being Gfriend.

Despite the unfavorable environmental conditions, they don't want to be negative, they try to build good energy, especially Sowon the group leader who works hard to make his members always filled with positive thoughts.
But it's never easy. Just look, tonight they were  criticized again for unstable dances and vocals. They were devastated because their debut will be coming soon but they were getting worse. So, Sowon, who saw her members being burdened, tried to encourage and invite them to the Han River.

There, the six held hands and cried together. The training life is never easy, especially living in Korea where perfection is demanded to the point where it can disturb the psyche.
