The pink unicorn, purple and black dragon (Jin Yong-sun) and Mark Lee meet up in the center of the meadow that stretches between the grand forest (Hallasan National Park), the coastline (a part of the Hamdeok Beach), the concealed cottage (Seongeup Folk Village) and the infamous "Sunrise Peak" or Seongsan Ilchulbong monument.
"So, you're telling me that he didn't make the cut for the group?!" Yong-sun snarls at Mark, who boasts his unique silver-blond long hair.
"Whoa, bro, Yong-sun-ah, we're all friends here. I tried my best to get him into 127, but he just..." Mark looks at the unicorn, flicking his eyes up and down. "Look, I'm trying my best to get him into a group. He might not be a part of 127, but he's going to be in a group. I promise. I'll make it happen."
Yong-sun jabs his face at Mark and growls, "Just face it. He won't. He's good enough, but because he's a pink unicorn, he'll never fit in."
"I'm standing right here," the unicorn remarks, blinking. "And my name is Winwin, thanks."
"See, you think just because you possess some magical Jeju blood that you're all that. You should have never even attempted to try, you're just making a massive mistake. And when the truth comes out in the media, there will be bloodshed..." Mark holds his ground as the dragon king snaps, "And it will be YOUR fault!"
Yong-sun jabs a talon-like index finger into Mark's chest, almost knocking him backward and off of his feet.
Mark shakes his head and pats the hilt of his sword that is sheathed into his holster. "Yong-sun, why are you insisting that I am the bad guy here? What if Winwin manages to secure a spot in a group. It might not be 127, but there's Dream or WayV, even. I'll get him one of those and he'll be amazing."
"Maybe I don't want Jeju creatures to be idols!" Yong-sun roars.
Winwin the unicorn gasps. "Why?!"
Yong-sun glares at him. "Does there HAVE to be a reason?"
"Yes," Winwin and Mark say in unison.
"There's always a reason and if you don't tell us, then how can we understand your point of view? See, this is the problem with villainous characters, they always think they have a solid reason and never express it, so it's just 'I say no, because I say no,'" Mark exclaims, tossing his head and making his long hair sway behind him.
"So, I'm a villain?" Yong-sun questions. "I thought I was your friend, Mark Lee?"
Mark frowns. "You are, well, I don't know. Ugh, just, tell us your reason."
"Have you ever heard of someone named Chung-ha?" Yong-sun questions.
Mark nods his head. "She's a pretty famous soloist now...why?"
"She tried out for a group named IOI and the group disbanded. When they did people turned on her. I tried to get her to return but she was set on becoming a soloist and she chose to never return here. Now, she's big, yes, but she doesn't remember Jeju or me or any of this and, yes, I was in love with her!"
"I knew it!" Mark exclaims. "It's always romance..." He elbows Winwin in the side.
Winwin whinnies and rolls his eyes.
Yong-sun narrows his eyes at Mark. "Now, you come to take away Winwin. NOW you understand. And NOW you must leave Jeju at once! I will have no more idols tainting my lands and beautiful habitants!"
Mark folds his arms across his chest and cocks an eyebrow. "And what if I don't? What if Winwin WANTS to come with me and pursue his dream? Will you stop him?"
Yong-sun glances at Winwin. "No."
Winwin stands proud and tall. "I want to join a group."
"Then we are done here," Mark says, holding a hand out to Winwin. "I'll make you a star, I promise."
Yong-sun's eyes flash a dark color. "If you return to Jeju, Mark Lee, you will come back to a battlefield. You will be met with hostility and anger."
Mark and Winwin begin to leave, setting off through the grass, chatting with one another.
"DON'T YOU IGNORE ME, MARK LEE!!" Yong-sun roars, his wings snapping out of his back and spreading out wide to the sides.
But Mark and Winwin vanish into the distance, leaving him bristling with anger.
The pink mist containing the visual blurs and dissolves the setting and formulates a new scene. This one is familiar to the idols, especially Tae-il, Haechan and Jae-min, who gasp upon seeing the SM building.
Mark stands with Winwin at his side in the lobby of the building. Winwin is no longer a unicorn off Jeju's magical land, instead he has bright pink hair and a very pink outfit that indicates his pink unicorn true self.
"Well, 127 is set, Dream is finalizing members and WayV too. Is there one you prefer over the other?" Mark asks.
Winwin nods his head and smiles. "I want to be a part of WayV!"
"I will do my best to solidify that then," Mark says, putting a hand on Winwin's shoulder.
Winwin smiles at him.
Once again the visual scene in the mist blurs and dissolves away and is replaced with a new scene. The six WayV members: Yangyang, Xiaojun, Kun, Hendery and Ten stand in the lobby with Winwin. They are all full of smiles.
Mark stands to the side, grinning. "So much potential and talent no matter who or what you are, it's good to see you be welcomed. May you be happy in your new group and succeed, Winwin."
With that, he walks away, leaving the smiling group behind.
The images fade away in the mist, before the mist itself disappears in little sparkles of light. Tae-il, Haechan and Jae-min blink in shock. Hak-nyeon, Dami, Seung-kwan, Jin-ho, Shin-won, Kyung-hwa, Seo-ho, Ravn, Jeong-yeon and Ryu-jin share a look between one another. The pink unicorn remains motionless, waiting...
It doesn't take more than a few seconds before one of them speaks up...
