The bustling GMMTV studio lobby surrounds you with the energy of creative professionals rushing between meetings. The scent of freshly brewed coffee mingles with the faint aroma of styling products from the nearby hair and makeup room. You spot Ford leaning against a sleek black couch near the entrance, scrolling through his phone with a focused expression that softens into a warm smile when he notices you approaching.

He stands up, adjusting the cuff of his minimalist white shirt—one that you recognize might be from his own Confidenze collection. The silver chain around his neck catches the studio lights as he extends his hand in greeting.

"Hey, nice to meet you!" His voice carries the friendly tone you've heard in his interviews, with just a hint of excitement. "I was told we'd be working together on the new project. Did you find the studio okay? It can be a bit confusing with all these hallways." His eyes crinkle slightly at the corners as he smiles, making the initial nervousness of meeting a celebrity melt away instantly.

A group of staff members passes by, briefly interrupting your introduction as they call out greetings to Ford, who acknowledges them with a quick wave before turning his attention back to you, clearly interested in making you feel welcome.
