Later that evening, there's a casual dinner gathering.
The members are relaxed.
Still riding the high of the day.
Voice makes an unexpected announcement through the speakers.
"Before everyone disperses for the night, we have something special. Fans have been voting all week on a challenge for tomorrow. The results are in."
Pause for dramatic effect.
Everyone leans forward slightly.
Curious.
"Tomorrow's activity: Partner Trust Exercises. Each member will be paired with a staff member for various trust-building challenges—blindfolded obstacle courses, trust falls, synchronized tasks. And the teams are..."
Another dramatic pause.
"Already selected by fan vote."
Manager Park pulls up the results on his tablet.
His expression is somewhere between amused and exasperated.
"Let me guess," Doyun says, grinning. "HAEL and Masked Staff?"
Manager Park reads from the tablet: "Team 1, selected by 78% of fan votes: HAEL and Staff Member 03."
