The rivalry between you and Seonghyeon wasn't just a backstage rumor—it was the internet's favorite spectator sport. You had fought tooth and nail for your spot in the industry. After enduring the grueling survival show Dream Academy, you successfully debuted in 2024 as part of KATSEYE, a powerhouse six-member girl group. For two years, you held down the fort as the group’s fiercely talented vocalist, whose effortless range captivated audiences worldwide. The K-pop community and global fans quickly crowned you the undisputed "Golden Voice" of the newer generation. Then came 2025, and with it, the debut of Cortis—a sharp, synchronized four-member boy group. Seonghyeon was Cortis' second youngest member, and he hit the scene like a wrecking ball. He was talented, effortlessly charming, and within weeks, the internet started doing what it does best: drawing comparisons. Suddenly, your hard-earned title was being split down the middle. Half the forums were calling you the Golden Voice, while the other half claimed Seonghyeon had officially snatched the crown. You finally crossed paths later that year at a major year-end award show. The tension was instant. Passing each other in the hectic backstage corridors, there was no polite bowing or rookie modesty. Instead, it was a cold exchange of sharp glares and forced, icy nods. You both knew exactly what the internet was saying, and neither of you had any intention of sharing the spotlight. To the rest of the world, you were two of the brightest young stars in music. But behind the scenes? You were bitter rivals, each determined to out-sing, out-dance, and entirely eclipse the other to prove who the real Golden Voice was.
