That did it for June.
He could hear his mbers celebrating outside his room, their footsteps growing nearer every second. However, all he could hear was the sound of i's voice-calling him her brother.
June was certain that she still didn't know. From the way she spoke, it was obvious that her mories hadn't recovered.
However, June thought it was much better. June wanted i to live a good, new life without the mories of the past. No matter how aningful it was, June didn't want her to go through that pain once again.
It also made her statent even more special. Despite not knowing that the two of them were real siblings in his past life, she still felt it.
He shook his head and wiped the tears from his eyes.
Just then, the door opened, revealing his mbers, who all had happy looks on their faces.
At that mont, June lifted his tear-stricken face, halting their celebration.
Then, Akira placed his hand over his heart. "Aww, June is so touched by our achievents that he's crying!"
June's eyebrows raised in surprise as his mbers started tearing up.
They misunderstood.
Jaeyong looked up to the ceiling and fanned his eyes. "I was doing so well," he muttered. "Seeing June cry because of us is so touching."
Yeah, they definitely misunderstood.
Ren and Zeth held onto each other and started crying. "We've co so far!" Zeth exclaid. "We're going to be okay now."
With that, the others followed suit, the room filled with tears, snot, and the sound of grown n crying.
June, being the reason why this had happened in the first place, watched the scene before him with a sigh.
"These guys," he muttered.
However, even though they misunderstood June's emotion, he was still thankful.
He was glad that everything turned out well for them. He knew that in most cases, the groups lose to their companies-with them having to bury their dreams underground and being forgotten into oblivion.
June had seen it plenty of tis when i was just a K-Pop fan. Now, he had overco such a situation. He felt that there was nothing they couldn't conquer now.
However, that wasn't just his goal.
For the people who lost their dreams before, June wanted to show that there would always be a chance. And for those who felt they were in a similar situation as EVE-there was sothing they could do.
June's train of thought broke when he felt heavy bodies stacking on top of him.
"Guys," he groaned as the other boys smothered him in hugs and tearful words.
He wanted to push them all to the ground, but he held himself back, a small smile appearing on his face.
He shook his head and opened his arms, patting them on the back.
"Congratulations, guys," he muttered.
"We really did it."
***
There was no mistaking.
DAWN's debut was the hottest of the year-even surpassing that of EVE. Their song, To My New Beginning, was an instant hit.
What set it apart from anything else was the fact that it wasn't just successful in the dostic charts but also in the international ones.
Overnight, the mbers had garnered millions of new followers, and more people from around the world were still discovering their group.
However, June faced one problem.
As they were practicing for their concert performances, Akira went over to June and placed a hand on his shoulder.
"I think you need to change your Navel userna," he said.
June lifted his head with furrowed eyebrows. "Why?" he asked. "I thought of it for a really long ti."
Akira chuckled. "I'm sure," he sarcastically said. "However, it's not working well for our brand. You have 12 million followers now, but you'd have a lot more if you had a different userna!"
"True," Zeth said, sitting on the floor and moving away from Ren when he felt so of the latter's sweat drip on him.
"Gross," he muttered.
"Up until now, there are still lots of new fans asking about your social dia handle," Zeth continued.
"But it's so obvious," June said. "Are people just naturally dumb these days?"
Akira sighed and shook his head. "Goodness," he muttered. "You're not perfect after all."
"Just change it," he said. "I get those ssages, too. Look!"
June squinted his eyes as Akira presented to him the bulk of his direct ssages.
- What's June's Navel account?
- Please tell June to make one right away!
- I can't look for June's account anywhere.
June clicked his tongue. "Just tell them my userna."
Akira pursed his lips. "I just can't ssage random fans on the internet! Besides, I'm not going to give a shout-out to your weird-ass userna."
June scratched the back of his neck. "What's wrong with it?" he muttered.
"First, it's literally SkEVEdi! I'm not going to explain that to you anymore since I know you won't understand. However, it feels more like a page than a personal one. Another thing is that there are too many numbers. It's hard to rember. And the most important thing is that it contains our old team na. We're DAWN now. So, you need to change it."
June was slowly becoming convinced.
"Aside from that," Akira continued. "You don't even post photos of yourself. Your profile picture is the default one. How do you expect new fans to find you?"
June clicked his tongue and shook his head. "Fine," he muttered. "I'll change it."
The other mbers walked over to where they were, expecting June to create another
atrocious userna.
June frowned. "Why are all of you here?"
"Just for guidance," Jisung smiled. "We want the best for you, bro."
June sighed and shook his head before going to his settings to change his userna. He still rembered what Minjun had taught him, so he was now able to do it on his own.
He paused for a while, thinking of a new userna.
The other mbers were expecting the worst. However, as June typed out his new userna,
they were pleasantly surprised.
DAWNinJune.
