the fandom was divided. but majority of them support aeri, just as much she's been supporting them.

their first full album came out just a month after, and it got so much attention.
after all, bad publicity is still a publicity.

it was not their original intention to market it this way. but let's say someone helped them out, though their intention was not to see them rise.

karma never stops working, and serving.

their first album; 'The New Chapter' includes 6 songs and the title track 'Reborn'.
it got positive feedback due to their new sound, concept, and appreciation of their talents.
it got on multiple local and international charts, reaching out to more audiences.

But among all, their b-side 'Chasing after Sin' received the most engagement and stayed on top of the chart for weeks. The gifted music video with the scene of the two lovers dancing in the middle of the rain, expressing their loves through moves and musics, add fuel to fires.
more and more people attract to the group, and can't wait to see more of them.

aeri continued the schedule with the boys as promised. she took the time to make the best out of it, and surely it did give her nothing but beautiful memories.

she also became closer to her fans, and be more opened. as she let herself out and limited the negativity, the light and hope of positivity keeps on planting seeds inside her head. it grows at the same time as it heals.

as for our villain, he failed so hard. after many tries, attacks, they all fired back at him.
chairman lee aggressively signed off another contract of his last subsidiary company to anonymous investors.
"done. now can you tell me who's this buyer?" he asked his son.
simply, he can't understand why donghae was joy over the fact that his studio was sold off to another parent company.

donghae gave him a cheeky smile. "trust me dad, you would not want to know."
"just. tell. me."
he closed the document, and kept it safe in his hand. "it's mrs. im."
his father frowned, fumbled in anger. "as in Im bona? you better sign off. you cant work for her."
donghae pressed his lips into a thin line. "surprisingly, i'm fine working with her as I see no potential growth working with you, dad." he bowed, and left.

chairman lee stood up, and shoved everything off his desk. "I raised disappointed sons. you all go to strangers and betrayed your father-"
donghae turned back and smirked. "I don't really like your reaction, dad. if you really see us your sons, you should be happy that we grow up. I can't say the same thing about you."
"you-"
"and one more thing. you better prepare for the bigger storm. I wish you the best, as your son, dad."
"fine! leave. all of you leave and never come back. you're no longer my son-"

as donghae left, his assistant rushed in with fear written all over his face.

"s-sir, we got officer here-" he was pushed away by a group of officers.

"i'm sorry to interrupt you, sir." the head officer said. "i'm afraid you have to come with us."
chairman lee scoffed in disbelief. "why? for what?" he refused them to cuffing his wrists.
"you're under arrested for tax evasion."

"what?! this can't be true. where's the evidence-"
the head officer snapped. "we've got everything we need, sir. please don't make thing hard for us, it only wastes both of our time."
in the end, he gave up and being cuffed. "you better investigate thoroughly, officer."
"like mentioned, sir. we have everything. evidence, and witnesses."
