I entered what felt like the most crowded auditorium in the world. Basically every seat was filled to the point where people were sitting on the stairs (which was definitely a fire hazard). Every possible space was filled to the max. I scanned the area hopelessly, trying to find an empty spot.

"There's two seats over there." said a girl behind me.

I jumped and spun around. She was slightly taller than me, probably in the same grade as me.

She smiled. "I'm Nam Seoyeon. I believe I'm in your music composition class."

She was very beautiful, and her confidence overflowed. I couldn't help but feel embarrassed about myself. I wouldn't be surprised if she had already had multiple boyfriends.

"Um, uh, yeah sure." I stuttered, attempting not to embarrass myself anymore, but failing to do so.

We walked towards the empty spots, trying not to trip over the huge masses of bodies that we had to basically parkour over. Seoyeon seemed to gracefully glide over the all the people, and she was wearing high heels. I was wearing tennis shoes, and I probably stepped on over ten people's hands like the clumsy person I am. The fact that I was also carrying a backpack probably didn't help.

Finally, we reached the empty spots and sat down. A man came out on stage and announced that the concert was starting in five minutes. Seoyeon and I sat in an awkward silence for a few moments, not knowing what to say.

Seoyeon cleared her throat. "So... what brings you here today? You don't really seem like the type to come to a concert."

I laughed nervously. "Yeah, it's my concert. Is it that obvious?"

"Very." She nodded and laughed. "You have your backpack." She said as she pointed at my backpack.

I looked down at the backpack I was holding, and placed it under my seat.

"Most people put their backpacks in their locker before coming to a concert." She laughed. "Also you're wearing a jacket."

I noticed she was only wearing a tank top.

"There's like 'ten billion' bodies squished together here, and it's going to feel like 'ten billion' degrees in here later. You're going to be really hot with that on."

I didn't realize how warm I was until she had told me. "Oh. I guess it really is obvious." I slowly took of my jacket.

She smiled at me. "There. You're looking better already!"

"Thanks."

"No problem! The concert's almost starting already!"

She was right. The lights had dimmed down, and the spotlight shined on the stage.

The entire auditorium fell silent. The announcer came back on stage.

"Welcome to the biggest concert at the Seoul School of Music so far!"

The crowd screamed.

"Thank you everyone who has waited so patiently for Day6. I know we're all excited about the end of the semester, so without further ado... This is DAY6!"

Everyone around me screamed as the stage lit up, revealing 6 people. It looked like there were two guitarists, one bassist, one keyboardist, one synth player, and a drummer. The lights directed toward the stage illuminated their faces, but I was too far away to see them too clearly.

Seoyeon stood up, holding up her phone flashlight, like the rest of the people. I didn't know exactly what the point of standing up was, but followed everyone else, hoping I wouldn't stand out.
