A freshman welcoming party—just hearing the name was exhausting, but the thought of free food made it hard to skip. It felt like I'd be losing out if I didn't go. When I arrived at the restaurant, it was packed and noisy. And right in the center, without a doubt, was Lee Woohyuk.

Ah, that guy.

He's famous enough that even I, someone with zero interest in trends or gossip, know who he is. 'That insanely handsome guy from the Theater Dept.' That's him.

He's definitely handsome, but he looks so exhausted. No matter how curious they are about him, he's still a freshman; they're making him uncomfortable.

I trudged toward the crowd. Aside from the freshmen, they were all familiar faces.

"The senior who organized this will be here soon, so let's all go back to our seats and stop pressuring the junior."

Everyone awkwardly returns to their seats at those words. Guest turns to leave as if simply doing what needed to be done.
