Starwave Entertainment didn't feel like a company.
It felt like a controlled universe.
The floors were too clean. The walls too white. The silence too disciplined. Even the staff walked like they were part of a choreography no one had taught Ji-woo yet.
Park Ji-woo stood in the lobby clutching her bag strap, staring at the enormous LED screen playing AURORA's latest music video.
Millions of views.
Millions of fans.
And today... she was assigned to them.
Her first day.
Her stomach twisted.
Team Leader Choi appeared beside her. "You're Park Ji-woo?"
She bowed quickly. "Yes!"
"Don't talk unless they talk to you. Don't stare. Don't be slow."
Ji-woo nodded, heart racing.
They stopped in front of a door labeled:
AURORA – Dressing Room
The door opened.
Laughter spilled out.
Inside, four men sat casually, unreal in a way that only idols could be.
Min-jae laughing loudly.
Tae-hyun sipping iced coffee.
Do-hyun lying on the couch scrolling his phone.
And at the vanity mirror...
Han Seo-jun.
Leader.
Calm. Straight posture. Expression unreadable.
"New stylist," Choi announced.
Ji-woo bowed deeply. "Hello. I'll work hard."
Three members greeted her.
Seo-jun didn't turn around.
"New?" he asked.
"Yes."
"Don't be late."
That was it.
Ji-woo swallowed.
She didn't know why those three words felt heavier than a lecture.
She went to work immediately, steaming outfits, arranging accessories, focusing only on the fabric.
But she felt him.
Every movement. Every step.
When he stood for a fitting, she approached carefully.
She adjusted his sleeve.
"Too tight," he said.
She loosened it. "Like this?"
"...Yes."
Two words.
Still, her hands shook after.
She had a feeling this job would change her life.
She just didn't know how.
