It's been days since Ji Hyo rejected So Min, and it's also been days since So Min ate properly. She's been losing weight because of this habit, which made the people around her worried, especially the members, since they see her more often than her family because she lives alone.

"Yah! Jeon So Min, why are you becoming thinner? Are you on a diet?" Haha asked her.

They are currently at the dance studio to practice their group dance. Most members have arrived. They're just waiting for Jae Seok, Ji Hyo and the teachers.

"Ne oppa, I am." She forced a smile.

"Aniyo." Jong Kook butts into the conversation. "I don't think she's on a diet. Are you sure you're on a diet and not starving yourself, So Min–a?"

"What is wrong with that hyung?" Kwang Soo pointed at Jong Kook.

"Jinjjayo!" So Min chuckled to reassure them that she's fine.

"I don't think so. You lose weight differently." Jong Kook insisted what his intuition was telling him.

"So Min–a, are you worried that Jong Kook–i won't be able to carry you?" Seok Jin approached her and caressed her back. So Min smiled bitterly, making the men think that it's the truth.

"Yah! So Min–a, are you really worried about that? Aigoo! Geokchonghajima! Jong Kook oppa will help you. We're partners in this. Also, I won't let all those years of workout be useless." Jong Kook tapped her cheek and hugged her to assure her.

So Min wasn't supposed to cry, but she's tearing up. Even though they are not that close with each other, Jong Kook's hug suddenly made her realize how badly she needs to be comforted. Jong Kook felt wetness on his chest, so he patted her back to make her feel his support and comfort.

Meanwhile, Jae Seok and Ji Hyo, who arrived together, saw the situation. Jae Seok's eyes widened and immediately approached the two.

"What's happening? Jeon So Min are you crying?" Jong Kook signalled him to keep quiet and just let the girl be.

Meanwhile, Kwang Soo went to Ji Hyo to greet her.

"Noona, gwaenchanhayo? Are you sad?" Kwang Soo puts his arms around her noona.

"Ai! Gwaenchanhayo, Kwang Soo–ya. I'm just feeling tired already." She nudged him.

"Noona, if you feel like crying, you can also lean on me. Or to be fair, I'll call Se Chan–i—"

"Yaish! Dakcho saekkya!" She pulled his hair and pushed him.

"Yah Ji Hyo–ya, why are you being violent with Kwang Soo?" Haha asked while walking his way towards them.

"I–saekki jinjja! He's pissing me off!" She glared at Kwang Soo.

"Ai hyung!" He stood up and locked the short guy in his arms. "Hyung, I think it's the red days again." He whispered.

"Yah! Is this about Jong Kook hyung hugging Jeon So Min?" Haha asked, whispering in his ear.

"Molla jinjja! Let's leave her be, she'll be okay after getting a sleep— like that!" Kwang Soo pointed at already sleeping Ji Hyo.




"So everyone, the next filming will still go on. I hope you will take a rest too even though you're all busy with your schedules. Please don't forget your individual and collaboration stages. I hope you're working well on that." The PD announced before dismissing them.

"So Min–a, gaja?" Jong Kook called So Min, who was rummaging through her backpack.

"Ne, oppa. I'm coming." When So Min finally saw the shirt she's been looking for, she rushed to the restroom to change her shirt.
