Where We Are "Let's Remind Them"
"Ugh. I would not have recognised you had I not already known that hoodie of yours." I grimaced on walking up to the young man who was waiting at DayBreak Entertainment's main entrance. "And where did you get that cap? It's got a hole in it.""It's a style statement. Shut up, you." Changmin laughed and gave me a big hug. "Welcome back home!""I've been home for a week already though." I gave in and laughed softly, patting his back. We had not quite been able to meet since I returned from Thailand. We were forced to schedule this drinks' date on the phone too. I could understand why he would say that to me now. "It's good to be back."I had missed you too. Yes.We let go of each other and I asked, "Won't it be weird if the both of us wear caps and masks on? And that too at a bar.""I'll take it off once we get there. You have to keep your beanie on though. Your hair will attract attention. My hair's black so I'll fit right in." He was wearing an open green hoodie over a grey V-neck T-s
Where We Are "You're Making Me Weak"
"We'll share a cab." Changmin said when we left the pub, all covered up with our masks and caps again. "Your dorm comes before mine anyway. It'll be easier."I agreed, then smiled to myself. "If we were normal people who went drinking- as in, not Idols with schedules like ours and not living in dorms- you could have come and stayed over at my place since it's closer.""You want me to?" He asked as he stepped towards the road to hail a cab. I couldn't help but smile while watching him."It's nice to have Hyung taking care of everything."He chuckled, managed to flag down a cab and looked at me as the driver brought it to a slow stop. "Do you want me to, Jeongwoo? Stay over, I mean.""It's not like you can, even if I want you to." I said bitterly and got into the cab when he opened the door. He got in after me and shut the door. After giving the driver directions, I turned to him again. "You have places to be tomorrow morning just as do I, Hyung.""It would have been really nice if we w
Where We Are Getting Busy
I had to meet the people in the costumes' department regarding a change that was being made to my outfit for the upcoming live stage. Once my work there had been done, I set off on my way back to the practice room where the others were already practicing."Choi Jeongwoo." An actor signed with our agency, Moon Jisung, stopped me in the hallway. He was with his Manager and they seemed on their way out. "I heard your cover- the one you and YoonJae released 2 days ago. I have to say, that song 'I Loved You Before' has been one of my favourites ever since Say6 released it. I was so moved not only by the fact that you chose that song, but also by your version of it."I beamed and bowed. "Thank you so much, Moon-ssi. I have always loved that song too. I'm glad you liked our version of it.""Come on. Say6 themselves gave you a shoutout. Everyone's loving it." He clapped my shoulder. "I just wanted to appreciate you too."Jaehyeon and I had been plenty happy with our cover but we had never exp
Where We Are Choi Jeongwoo's Era
"This is hard." I pursed my lips and ran a hand through my hair. We were all in one of the meeting rooms, trying to pick a song."There are too many to choose from." Yeojun leaned over the table, arms outstretched before him, still seated. "We have 5 days left to prepare too.""5 days are enough for us." Mingyu said, clicking his click-pen against the paper in front of him as he contemplated everything. "As long as we decide on a song tonight.""Does it HAVE to be a cover?" Yeojun asked."They want a cover and 'To You'. Besides, we have been performing just our tracks for a while. We also need the content.""Mm." Jaehyeon hummed thoughtfully. "Do you want to go back a few years or stick to the recent releases?""The show usually gets all sorts of covers." Hanseol said. "The era doesn't really matter but… newer songs might help us in the sense that there may be more people who will know them.""Good point." Jaehyeon nodded."Then… something after 2012?" Mingyu asked."Yeah. 5 years see

Where We Are Burnout
Hanseol had just returned to the practice room after recording for his Mixtapes. We had decided to take a little break from practice as he stretched and got ready to join us. The dystopian performance of 'Yeongweonhi Norae' was just less than 20 hours away and we still had a few things to fix up. Moreover, despite all the practice that I had put in, I was feeling a little unprepared. Earlier, it was good enough if I could just get through the performance to the very end but that was no longer the case. The right notes needed to be hit, the moves needed to be refined, powerful and sharp while remaining elegant. For a performance like this, the facial expressions mattered too.There was a lot going on and a lot to get done.I had my headphones on and my phone in one hand. The new version of 'Yeongweonhi Norae' was playing loudly enough to cut everything else out. I was still practicing my parts while the others waited for Hanseol to warm up. I had intended to stop after 2 entire run-thr
Where We Are "Let's Take Good Care of Each Other"
"Hyung, why did you come?" I continued to smile although it was getting increasingly difficult to breathe."What do you mean 'why'?" He frowned and came up to the bed. "I came here as soon as I heard about what had happened and as soon as I could come. They said that you had collapsed and… do you know how worried I was about you? And the first thing I hear when I walk in is 'why did you come'?" His concern was clearly reflected in those usually sharp black eyes that now looked tender. His forehead was creased and he had not even bothered to fix his hair after removing his cap. Despite having not wanted to show my emotions, it looked like I had chosen the wrong words."No… What I had meant was… how were you able to come? You should have been busy." That was barely a cover up and the pause that he had given me before speaking again told me that he had not bought that. Nevertheless, he said nothing more about it."How could I not have come?" He asked softly, furrowing his brows. "If my f
Where We Are Hyung Sunbae
"Choi Jeongwoo-ssi." Changmin sat forward in his seat, resting his chin upon his palms, elbows on the table. His eyes were narrowed to look only at me and his lips were curled up into a smile. "I'm a huge fan.""What is this?" I laughed."Did you watch that performance of yours later?" He gave me a poker face. "If you have, you should know what I am talking about."Well, everyone was talking about the dystopian performance of 'Yeongweonhi Norae'. We had finally managed to perform it 2 days before Hanseol's Mixtapes were released. I had re-watched the performance later and I too had thought that it was the best performance we had ever given. Because of my unexpected trip to the hospital, we had gotten an extended period of pactice for the performance. We were able to further work on it and perfect it. The final outcome was a performance that neither S.T.A.Y nor True would ever forget. The expressions were on-point. The dance was sharp, clean and powerful. The setting was ominous. The v
