Epilogue Part 5: Fans and The New "Do Ha" Era
The following week, the group's Instagram live sessions had become a routine for the fans. After the initial shock of seeing Hangyeom and Jungha's chemistry on-screen, the fanbase had exploded with new theories, edits, and, of course, fan art of the "Do Ha" couple.
That evening, as Omega X gathered together in the dorm for a break, Hangyeom nervously paced around the kitchen, trying to figure out how to handle the attention. Jungha, who had been in the living room chatting with the members, raised an eyebrow as Hangyeom tried to hide his discomfort.
"Something wrong?" Jungha asked, leaning against the doorframe, a soft smile on his face.
Hangyeom gave him a small, resigned grin. "The fans... they're getting a little too into it. They've been tagging me in all these fan art and comments about 'Do Ha,' and I feel like I've accidentally started something I can't stop."
Jungha chuckled and walked over to join him, patting him on the back. "Don't worry about it too much. It's not the worst thing that can happen. You're just giving the fans what they want."
"But what if it gets out of hand?" Hangyeom fretted. "What if we can't keep the characters separate from ourselves? What if we mess it up?"
"Relax," Jungha said, his voice soft but reassuring. "The characters will always be there. But so will we. As long as we're enjoying it, there's no problem. Plus, I don't mind being 'Do Ha'—it's a fun ride."
Hangyeom finally gave in, chuckling despite his worries. "You're right. I guess I was just not prepared for it to blow up this fast."
Meanwhile, in the living room, Omega X was already planning their next group project. Xen had his phone out, grinning. "I have an idea. Why not do a fan challenge? Let's get the fans to pick their favorite 'Do Ha' moments and we'll recreate them. They'll love it!"
Seungwoo, who had been quietly observing, smiled. "That's actually a good idea. Give the fans a taste of what they want while we have fun with it. The more we engage with them, the more they'll feel like part of the journey."
Yechan chimed in. "You guys are already getting so many comments and messages. Why not make it fun? You can post a poll, ask them what they'd like to see next from 'Do Ha.'"
Hangyeom nodded slowly, the tension in his shoulders easing. "Okay, okay. I think I can do this."
Jungha, who had been silently watching the banter, couldn't help but laugh. "Alright, then. Let's make sure it's something we can enjoy too, not just for the fans. If we're going to keep this 'Do Ha' thing alive, it has to be fun for us too."
Xen raised his hand like a teacher calling for attention. "I'm in! Let's give them what they want. Let's make it a 'Do Ha' official fan event. I'll even design some goofy merchandise if we can get Hangyeom to wear it."
Hangyeom's eyes widened. "What kind of merchandise?!"
The group burst into laughter, with Jungha joining in. "I think you might be stuck with this, Do Yoon. I hope you're ready to embrace your inner 'Do Ha.'"
The night passed quickly as the group brainstormed their next steps. They agreed on posting more behind-the-scenes moments from Jazz for Two and engaging with fans through live sessions. Even Hangyeom, who'd been reluctant at first, started to warm up to the idea of playing up the "Do Ha" dynamic for the fans.
As the group wrapped up their meeting, Jungha pulled Hangyeom aside, his voice soft. "We got this. We're doing this together, and no matter how much the fans ship us, remember, we're just having fun."
Hangyeom gave him a thankful nod. "Thanks, hyung. You really know how to calm me down."
"Someone has to," Jungha teased, giving him a playful nudge. "But really, it's just us being ourselves. And the fans will follow that. If we're having fun, they will too."
Later that night, Hangyeom took to his Instagram stories, sharing a new post with Jungha. He couldn't help but smile as he typed out a message for the fans: "#DoHa forever, but remember, we're still Hangyeom and Jungha behind the scenes. Thanks for all the love. 💙 #JazzForTwo"
The response was immediate. The comments flooded in, some still shipping "Do Ha," but many also offering their support for the bond between Hangyeom and Jungha. It was clear that their connection—both on-screen and off—was something fans could relate to, and it only made their friendship and chemistry even more beloved.
The next morning, when the members woke up, Hangyeom looked over at Jungha, his smile wide. "I think we're gonna be alright, hyung."
Jungha nodded, his own grin matching Hangyeom's. "We've got this, Do Yoon. Let's keep having fun with it."
And with that, the 'Do Ha' era had officially begun—bringing them closer together as friends, as actors, and as people who could embrace whatever came next.
