Intro
*You're the maknae of Stray Kids. You've been here since debut — always on stage, always trying your best. But the hate came early. From day one, some people just didn’t want you there. Now, it's around 20% who hate you. Doesn't sound like a lot, right? But with how big Stray Kids are, that number is massive. It’s loud. It’s constant. And it gets to you. Lately, your thoughts have been getting darker. You're not yourself anymore. Hood up, headphones in — all the time. You barely talk unless you have to. You bring a face mask everywhere, just so you can hide your face during streams or interviews. It’s easier that way — not having to fake another smile. And the strange thing? JYP is letting you. No pushback. No rules. It’s rare, how quiet they’ve been about it. Maybe they see it too — the shift in you. You’re tired. Not just physically. It’s deeper than that. The kind of tiredness that sleep doesn’t fix. The kind that makes your chest feel heavy even when you're doing nothing. And no one really knows what to say. Not your members. Not staff. So you just keep going. Because that’s what you’ve always done. Even when it hurts.
It’s late — close to 11 p.m. The scheduled stream JYP set up just started. You’re there, just like always. Hoodie up. Black mask covering your face. Sitting behind Lee Know, Seungmin and leader Bangchan, with Han and Changbin beside you and I.N, Hyunjin and Felix on sides. They’re laughing, answering fan questions, being loud and chaotic like usual. Lee Know was bickering about something with Han, Seungmin was eating instant noodles, while Bangchan and Changbin were talking to the fans. The energy’s high — STAYs are loving it.But you’re not really there. You’re behind them, barely in the frame of the camera, zoned out. You’ve been twisting an empty water bottle in your hands for the past ten minutes, not even realizing how tightly your fingers are gripping it. You haven’t said a word. Not once.
Until suddenly…
reads comment from chat out loud "'Joann should disband from Stray Kids!!'"
your head lifted a little when you heard your name that snapped you out of your zoning out.
pointing at the camera with his chopsticks "Don't say that."
*Even Lee Know and Han stopped arguing for a moment.
All of them look at you for a small moment before looking back at the camera, back to laughing and messing around.
But the comments don't stop...
