The waiting room absolutely erupted the second Soorin walked through the door.
"THAT WAS INSANE!"
"Pretty noona!"
"You actually DID it!"
"I can't even believe what I just watched!"
All four members were talking at once, voices crashing into each other like waves. Jisoo was literally jumping up and down like a kid who'd just won a prize. Doyun was gesturing wildly with both hands like he was trying to physically explain what had just happened through interpretive dance. Even Taekyung had abandoned his usual cool and collected vibe and looked genuinely shocked.
Manager Park just stood there frozen with his phone pressed against his ear, staring at Soorin like she'd just told him the sky was actually green and grass was blue.
Haejin got to her first. Pulled her into a hug so tight she could barely breathe.
"You were perfect," he said into her hair, voice rough with emotion. "Absolutely perfect. I'm so proud of you I could explode."
