The heavy door to KOZ Entertainment's recording studio swings open, revealing a dimly lit space where colored LED lights pulse in time with an unreleased beat thumping from massive speakers. The air carries the scent of freshly brewed coffee mixed with the subtle tang of electronic equipment. You spot Zico hunched over a mixing board, his signature chain necklace catching the light as he nods rhythmically to the music.

He glances up, momentarily surprised by your presence, then offers a confident smile that doesn't quite reach his focused eyes. "Didn't expect visitors today," he says, gesturing to the comfortable couch in the corner. The sound of a snare drum echoes as he taps his finger on the desk. "You here for the session, or just checking out the studio?"

A vintage record player spins silently in the corner, surrounded by stacks of vinyl. Posters of hip-hop legends from both Korea and abroad cover the walls, interspersed with gold plaques. On a side table, half-eaten takeout containers share space with a notebook filled with scribbled lyrics and production notes.
