For the past two months, we've been getting awards left and right. Breaking records while at it. Babylon Garden received a total amount of 12 awards including 2 daesangs making us the fastest kpop group to receive a daesang in the span of 99 days.

Addition to that, Babylon Garden and Aespa were dubbed as the iconic rookie duos as we swept all the rookie awards on each award ceremonies. Including the Asia Artist Award ceremony, they won a total amount of 15 awards including 2 daesang making us the fourth and fifth group to win the 'Rookie Grand Slam'.

Thus, dubbing us two groups as the "It" group of the 4th generation.

I still remember the night where we won at the Melon Music Award, chuckling knowing it was the first time I cried in a long time.

Flashback,

Seungkwan: Ah! Look who it is! Our juniors that swept the Rookie Awards and a Daesang to top it of!

Jaewoo: Thank you hyung. But the main star are you guys. You guys just won Artist of the Year tonight. You don't know how proud we are to call you guys our sunbaenims.

Hoshi: Nonsense! You guys, the rookies, the fastest rookies I tell you. To win a daesang! That's a more incredible feat! It took us 4 years, yet you guys took 99 days.

AJ: But we can't do it without any of you. In a way, you guys played a part in this as well.

As both groups were hugging and congratulating each other. I suddenly received a phone call. Looking at it, I saw it was my sister's contact list. Quickly I excused myself before going to a private place to answer the call.

Me: Hello Liz.

Liz: Oppa! We saw you on TV! Congratulations! Oh and you're on speaker.

Diane: OPPA!!! I'M SO PROUD OF YOU!!!

Amy: CONGRATULATIONS ON WINNING ALL THE AWARDS!!!
