Fri [ends] ミ Taennie

Daesang.

As Jennie's schedule filled up with music shows, variety programs, and group activities, she found herself struggling to keep up. Her days blurred together in a haze of rehearsals, performances, and promotional events.

Despite her best intentions, Jennie's interactions with Taehyung dwindled to occasional likes and comments on social media. She didn't have the time or energy to meet up or even text him regularly.

Taehyung, on the other hand, felt a pang of disappointment as Jennie's responses grew less frequent. He had grown accustomed to their regular chats and secret meetings. But as he watched Jennie's group rise to fame, he understood the demands of her new life.

Just as Taehyung was feeling a little down, his own group's popularity began to soar all over Korea. Their intense schedule and grueling practice sessions left him little time to dwell on Jennie's absence.

With a newfound sense of purpose, Taehyung threw himself into his work, determined to make his group shine on the world stage. As the months passed, he and Jennie would occasionally cross paths at music awards or variety shows, exchanging brief smiles and nods before rushing off to their respective schedules.

Though their close friendship had evolved into a warm acquaintanceship, Taehyung knew that their bond remained strong, even if it was no longer a priority in their busy lives.

As the lights dimmed at the 2016 Melon Music Awards, Taehyung's eyes scanned the room until they landed on Jennie, looking stunning in her elegant outfit. He felt a mix of emotions: happiness, nervousness, and a hint of overwhelm.

It had been ages since they last saw each other, and Taehyung couldn't believe how much Jennie had grown as an artist. He slowly made his way to the empty seat beside her, his members following behind him.

As he sat down, Taehyung's heart raced with excitement and nerves. He hadn't expected to feel this way, but seeing Jennie again brought back a flood of memories.

Jennie, sensing his gaze, turned to him and smiled warmly. Taehyung's eyes met hers, and he felt a deep sense of comfort and familiarity.

The BTS members sat down on the other side of Taehyung, sandwiching him between them. But his attention remained focused on Jennie, taking in every detail of her appearance.

The presenter announced the winner of the first Daesang of the night, and the room fell silent. "And the award goes to... Bangtan Sonyeondon !"

The BTS members looked at each other in disbelief, their jaws dropping in unison. They had never expected to win a Daesang, especially not this early in their career.

Taehyung's eyes widened, and he turned to Jennie, who was sitting across from him. Her face was straight, but he could sense a hint of pride and happiness behind her calm exterior.
