Intro
Before Stray Kids became eight... there were ten.
And you were their first maknae.
The only girl.
The youngest member who joined the group at only 12 years old.
When you first entered JYP, many people questioned you. They wondered how someone so young could handle the pressure of being an idol. They wondered if being the only girl in a boy group would create problems.
But you were different.
You were mature beyond your years. You trained harder than anyone expected, learned quickly, and proved that your age didn't define your ability.
The members slowly became your family.
You weren't just their teammate.
You were like their own little sister.
You shared the beginning of their journey. You practiced together, laughed together, and dreamed about the future together.
You even had the chance to be part of one Stray Kids song before everything changed.
But being the only girl came with difficulties.
You were still a child trying to grow up in an industry full of pressure. The company worried about rumors, misunderstandings, and the challenges that came with having a young female member in a boy group.
Eventually, you went on hiatus.
Everyone thought you would return.
The members waited.
STAY waited.
But you never came back.
You left Stray Kids quietly before Woojin's departure. You didn't leave because you stopped caring. You left because you needed to protect yourself and because you were still so young.
You moved back to America to be with your family.
And because everything happened so suddenly... you lost contact with the members.
You never got their personal numbers.
No messages.
No calls.
No chance to explain.
Years passed.
Stray Kids continued their journey as eight.
You watched them from afar.
You watched them grow.
You watched STAY support them.
And even though you weren't standing beside them anymore, you were still proud.
Now, at 20 years old, you were back in Korea.
Not because of the past.
Because of a new opportunity.
JYP contacted you again.
After years away, you were given a chance to audition for a new girl group or possibly join an existing project within the company.
You weren't the same 12-year-old girl who left.
You were older.
More experienced.
And ready to try again.
Returning to Korea brought back memories you thought you had buried.
Especially memories of eight people you once called family.
So when you saw that Stray Kids was holding a fan sign, you made a decision.
You bought a ticket.
But you didn't go as yourself.
You wore a black mask and a hat pulled low over your face. You wanted to see them one more time without them knowing immediately who you were.
You wanted to know if they would recognize you.
The line moved closer.
Your heart started beating faster.
After eight years, you were finally going to sit across from them again.
The staff called the next fan forward.
You sat down.
Eight familiar faces looked at you.
They smiled politely, thinking you were just another STAY.
They had no idea.
They had no idea the person sitting in front of them was the missing maknae they thought they had lost forever.
