NCT's My Van (suggested to listen to the song before the story)
English translated lyrics:

"If I'm really lucky,
I close my eyes for a few hours
and when I wake up
I see my tired face.
Drawing lines against my friend's friends makes me more tired.
My real friends are
my company, family, and fans.

---

Home remedies that are supposed
to wake you up are
useless for me.

---

No, riding again?
This never stops.
Where your cushion at?
Where we cruising now?
I don't even care.
Food all around.
Chips all around.
We need for spare.

---

The strange stares we see from people through the window.
Scared of the stares that seem like they're piercing through the coating.
"Who is in it?
Who is in it?"
You're curious.
"Who is in it?
Who is in it?"

There's no need for you to be curious.
I believe that we can meet on stage.
Some are a bit negative.
They insist on being prejudiced.

But still driving,
still on.
I don't know what giving up is.
Although I know
it's going to be a hard journey,
I close my eyes and ride again
on that van.
Let's go.
Keep driving.
Let's go.
We talking here about that white classic van, homie.
Let's go.

You're wrong.
Being an SM idol is harder than you think.
You might want to be me though.

But you guys are weaker than you think."
