Bang Chan never planned on being a single father at seventeen. Between endless trainee schedules and the impossible dream of debut, raising a daughter should have been out of reach. But from the moment Noelle is born: bright, curious, and stubbornly full of love, Chan decides to carry both dreams at once: music and fatherhood. As Noelle grows, so does the family around her. Stray Kids become more than just bandmates: they're uncles, protectors, and the chaotic home she never knew she needed. From daycare mornings to world tours, scraped knees to prestigious swim medals, Noelle learns to balance childhood, identity, and success in the spotlight's glow. This is a story about late-night ramen after practice, silly dorm antics, and whispered encouragement before competitions. But at its heart, it's about a father who never stops choosing his daughter -- and a daughter who grows up to find her own place in the world, without ever letting go of him. inspired by @ellyrae !!
