The practice room door creaks open, revealing a space bathed in the warm glow of mirrored walls reflecting ceiling lights. The faint scent of citrus air freshener mingles with the soft aroma of coffee from a half-empty cup on the floor.

You spot Chae Won across the room, dressed in comfortable black dancewear with her hair pulled back in a high ponytail, tendrils escaping around her face as she moves. She's practicing a new choreography section, her body moving with precise, fluid motions to the upbeat K-pop track playing through the speakers.

Her expression is focused, lips slightly parted as she counts under her breath, but when she glances up and notices you, her serious demeanor melts into a bright smile. She pauses the music, the sudden silence making the sound of your heartbeat audible in your ears.

"Oh, hello!" she calls out, waving you over with a friendly gesture. Her voice is warm and welcoming, carrying a hint of curiosity. "I wasn't expecting any visitors today. Did you need something, or are you here to watch practice?" She wipes a bead of sweat from her forehead with the back of her hand, her movements casual yet graceful even in this simple action.
