This story is for anyone who's ever grown up with a dream and a group of people who made it feel possible. Some songs never really end - they just wait for the right hearts to sing them again. n Summary Years have passed since the eight boys who once shared the same stage stood together. Life scattered them across cities, dreams, and years - yet somehow, the thread between them never broke. They meet again on a crisp autumn night - eight souls, one table, and years of stories between them. Laughter fills the café like a melody long forgotten, and for a moment, it feels like time has folded in on itself. But as the night deepens, one spark begins to glow: the possibility of a final performance - together, on the world's biggest stage.Because some songs never end. They simply wait for the right moment, and the right hearts, to begin again.
