They reached their destination at 7:00 p.m. since Harin went down on a wrong road earlier so they have to reroute their journey. So Yeon gave them her snacks along the journey because she knew hunger was not a pleasant thing to experience. Kanghyun was the only one who rejected her snacks since he told her, he usually doesn't eat during trips like this. So Yeon made a mental note to herself about that, trying to understand each and every member as detail as she can.

Harin parked in front of the Hanok which was a Korean traditional house. So Yeon and the others stretched their limbs after getting out of the car. She was the first one to go inside the Hanok, first. It's been a while since she stayed inside one so she was excited. It was separated to three sections, the first being the living room followed by two rooms in the second section and lastly the kitchen.

"Choose a room, So Yeon. You can stay in there by yourself." Yonghoon stated and So Yeon looked at the rooms. They were both the same size so it would be too cramped if the four of the boys fit it one room and she had all the space to herself. "Actually hyung, can I just sleep here instead? It's been a while since I've stayed in a Hanok before so just laying down at the living room is good enough for me."

Yonghoon looked at her in disbelieve. "Are you sure? The rooms are heated and the living room are not." Yonghoon asked her to reconfirm and she nodded. "I've come prepared, hyung. Besides I'm a camper so I can handle this cold." She showed him her sleeping bag and some reusable heating pads. Yonghoon had to agree in the end and ruffles her hair before going inside one of the rooms.

Yonghoon shared the room with Dongmyeong and the other room beside them had Harin and Kanghyun inside. "I've spotted two, let's go." Yonghoon called the others and they rushed into their van. "Harin, pass me the key, I'll drive." So Yeon stated and catches the car keys that Harin threw at her. "Guide me, hyung." She said before starting the engine. It was easy for her to maneuver the car since the road was big and she had no distractions. Once they arrived, So Yeon wears the earpiece and so does the others. So Yeon went with Yonghoon and the other three separated.

"I saw them around here." Yonghoon tells So Yeon so that she will be aware of her surroundings. Once they went deeper inside the abandoned warehouse, So Yeon was shocked to see not one but two dead bodies that was burned to death. Her breath started shaking because fear was creeping inside her body. Yonghoon quickly turned her around so she could focus on him instead of the corpses in front of her. "Calm down, Yeon. Don't focus on them anymore. Try not to worry much, I have your back here." He pulled her to a quick hug and patted her back before they moved forward to search for the culprit behind this.

"Hyung, they're in front of the warehouse." They both heard Dongmyeong's voice over their earpiece and ran towards the entrance but to their surprise, the door was shut upon them. That was when they realise, they were being watched. "You three, handle whatever is outside and try to open the front door again. So Yeon and I will handle whatever is inside here in the meantime." Yonghoon spoke over the earpiece before his eyes traveled around the warehouse, searching where the evil spirit might have been.

So Yeon was nervous but since this time, she had someone beside her, it made her feel better in a way. They heard a loud thud and quickly noticed two high schoolers. The high schoolers attacked them first in which Yonghoon fought back while So Yeon managed to dodge a punch. She was dealing with the high school boy and in her opinion, he was less aggressive than the high school girl that Yonghoon was handling at the moment. Although he was less aggressive, he didn't fail to keep on trying to hurt So Yeon. Meanwhile, she kept dodging his attacks since she implied what Harin said earlier while they were practicing.

'Since you just started fighting, I suggest you to stall the attacker as long as you can. That way, you can save your energy to attack them after they are tired.'
