Doyun's expression mirrors his concern.
The instructor wraps up the lesson. "Excellent work, everyone. Calligraphy requires patience and practice. Keep exploring this art."
Staff start cleaning up. Packing away brushes and ink.
Sera stands. Stretches.
"That was lovely. Thank you for the lesson."
Her tone is polite. But there's something underneath. Something eerie.
She looks at Haejin. "See you at dinner."
Then walks away. Her movements are different.
Like someone who just made a decision.
Haejin watches her go.
His phone buzzes again. Manager Park.
[My office. Now. Bring the members. Private.]
'Shit.'
"Guys," Haejin says quietly. "Manager Park wants us. Now."
They gather. Move as a group toward Manager Park's office.
Away from cameras. Away from staff.
The walk feels long. Tense.
When they arrive, Manager Park is pacing. His expression is grim.
"Close the door."
Jisoo closes it. Locks it.
"What happened?" Haejin asks.
