Jungwon walked through the school hallways with his head down, trying to remain invisible. He wore a mask of calm, the perfect leader on the outside, but beneath that mask, he was struggling. Every day, he faced the harsh reality of being bullied. His tormentors—Jihoon, Minjae, and Kyungsoo—relished in making his life miserable. They taunted him, shoved him into lockers, and even left bruises on his body. But no matter how bad it got, Jungwon never let it show.

He couldn't. His members relied on him. As the leader of Enhypen, he felt it was his duty to be strong for them, to not let his personal pain affect the group. They had enough on their plates—endless schedules, practice, and the constant scrutiny of the public. The last thing they needed was to worry about him. So, Jungwon hid his bruises, covering them with makeup and long sleeves, and forced himself to smile through the pain.

But the bullying wasn't just physical. His bullies knew how to get inside his head too. They called him weak, a failure, someone who didn’t deserve the success he had. And every day, Jungwon found it harder and harder to push those voices away.

Then one day, everything got worse.

Jungwon was in the school bathroom, washing his hands after a long, exhausting day of classes and bullying, when he overheard his tormentors talking. They hadn’t noticed him, too absorbed in their conversation to realize he was there.

“This is it,” Jihoon said, his voice low but filled with malice. “We’re going to ruin him for good. If we leak this fake information, everyone will turn against him. Fans, the company—no one will believe him. They’ll see him as a fraud.”

“What if he finds out?” Minjae asked, a smirk playing on his lips.

“Doesn’t matter,” Kyungsoo replied. “By the time he realizes, it’ll be too late. We’ll make sure the blame falls squarely on him. The idol world won’t want anything to do with him after this.”

Jungwon’s blood ran cold. He couldn’t believe what he was hearing. They were planning to destroy his career, to take away everything he had worked so hard for. He quietly pulled out his phone and recorded their conversation, every cruel word seared into his mind.

As he listened, he realized their plan was more than just a prank or a rumor—it was a full-blown scheme to frame him for something terrible. Something that could end his career and his life as he knew it.

He wanted to confront them, to stop them right then and there, but he knew it would only make things worse. Instead, he slipped out of the bathroom and kept the recording safe. It was his only weapon against them.

Despite Jungwon’s best efforts, the plan unfolded. A scandal erupted, implicating him in behavior that could destroy his reputation. False accusations spread across social media, and the once supportive fans turned on him. The hateful comments flooded in, and Jungwon found himself at the center of a storm he couldn’t escape from.

“You’re disgusting.”

“How could you betray us like this?”

“You were never worthy of being in Enhypen.”

The saesangs were ruthless. They picked apart every detail of his life, questioning his every move, his every word. The pressure was suffocating, but the worst part was yet to come.

When Jungwon was called to the principal’s office, he knew it wasn’t good. The school had decided to expel him for two weeks, citing the scandal and the potential damage it was doing to their reputation. No one cared to listen to his side of the story, and even when he tried to show them the recording, it was dismissed as fabricated or irrelevant.
