WOOZI FOCUSED 2016
he considers the first time he ever heard of her to be one of the luckiest days of his life, and if he ever found the carats responsible for introducing him to the other half of his heart then he would dedicate an entire album to thank them.
it was february 16th, two days after her debut, which he hadn't yet known.
the man had been working in his studio all day as he usually did on the next project for his group. he had already put weeks of his life into the project, which happened to be their second full album, and everything had been going great until the most recent track. he found himself particularly upset with how the track was turning out; the lyrics incoherent, the melody ear-splitting, and the production shitty. not even bumzu could salvage the song.
the team were on a time crunch and all the tracks needed to be recorded and finalized by the end of the month. he had spent three days he didn't have on the track already, and by this point refused to abandon it out of stubborn pride. he decided if he didn't take a break then he would lose his mind and trash his studio.
that was how he found himself logged into the vlive to interact with carats. it wasn't that he didn't like interacting with carats, he adored their fans, but he wasn't naturally inclined toward the public like their maknaes and viewed social media as draining more than anything else. he didn't have much to talk about, so instead he responded to questions and reacted to carats' comments.
he was answering a question about what music he was interested in lately, but since he'd spent so much time cooped up in his studio he didn't have an answer, so he asked carats for song recommendations.
he reacted to a few songs live and wrote down others to check out later. however, there was one reoccurring comment that at first he barely noticed, but as more comments came in he couldn't ignore it.
"check out four seasons plz!"
"four seasons next !!"
"ryun-ssi just debuted! plz show her some love <3"
"brother, show love to our new ryun-nie! four seasons fighting! ^v^"
he was confused by the constant stream of comments about this ryun person and her debut. he didnt have any interest in keeping up with new artists and with all of his time taken up by his group, he just didn't have the time to dedicate to much else. despite this, he still wrote down the name and debut song to check out later. deciding that reacting to a female peer, especially a potential dongsaeng, wouldn't be the best choice.
he continued to chat with fans for another hour, thankful for their compliments and silly words, that relaxed his nerves. he ended the live sooner after, wishing carats a good night, and logging off the seventeen account.
except it was long past nighttime in korean time — 4 a.m. actually.
he sighed looking at the time and seeing that it was late, too late to be in the studio working. he did some of his best work at dawn, but the all-nighters he was pulling and four or five hours of sleep before being thrown into another schedule was melting his brain. he needed a hot shower, food, and a full night of sleep to feel like a human being again.
