June sat in the middle of the room, his new members looking at him with wide eyes.
Aside from C-Jay, he had never interacted with these people before.
June looked at their ranks—46th, 47th, 43rd, 42nd, 49th, 25th.
The trainee, Sehun, had the highest rank among them, and he also had the "Leader" and "Center" badges stuck on his shirt. Despite the dark bags under his eyes, he had a smile on his face as his gaze met with June.
"It's my first time performing with a trainee from the top 15," a young-looking trainee, Jakob, said.
"Me too," Seokhwa exclaimed. "It's a pleasure to finally meet you! I always laugh when your scenes come on."
"My mom's a fan of you," Sehun added, a smile still on his face.
"We're so glad you're here, bro," C-Jay exclaimed. "I felt really down when I got kicked out of 'Break Me Up,' but now, I get to perform with you! That's a win in my book."
"You were kicked out, too?" June asked.
