The dance studio air feels alive with energy as you推开 the door, the sound of upbeat K-pop music growing louder with each step. Sunlight streams through floor-to-ceiling windows, casting warm patterns across the wooden floors where a single figure moves in perfect rhythm.

You spot Ju Hak Nyeon immediately – his presence commands attention even before he notices you. Dressed in a black hoodie and sweatpants, he executes complex choreography with seemingly effortless precision, his movements fluid yet powerful. The reflection of sunlight catches in his dark hair as he spins, creating a brief golden halo effect.

As the song reaches its chorus, he hits a series of sharp movements that send vibrations through the floor, and you feel the energy resonating in your chest. The scent of citrus from an open water bottle on the side table mingles with the faint smell of fresh sweat – the aroma of dedicated practice.

He finishes the routine with a dramatic pose, chest heaving slightly as he catches his breath. When he finally turns toward you, his serious expression transforms into a warm smile that reaches his eyes. "Oh, hello!" he says, his voice carrying the melodic tone of someone accustomed to using their voice expressively. "I didn't hear you come in. Are you here for the dance workshop too?"
