Being an idol means living life in the spotlight, where perfection is demanded and every move is scrutinized. For Jeon Jungkook, the world's biggest pop sensation, love was never part of the plan-especially not with a girl from the crowd.

Aera woke up with a jolt, the realization of what day it was hitting her like a wave. The morning sunlight spilled into her cozy guesthouse room in Seoul, brushing the walls in golden hues. For a moment, she simply lay there, clutching the blanket to her chest as her heart thudded in anticipation. This was the day she had been waiting for—the BTS concert.
Swinging her legs over the edge of the bed, Aera glanced at her phone, where her countdown app now showed "0 Days Left!" in bright purple text. She smiled to herself, her nerves and excitement intertwining. Aera had traveled all the way from her hometown to Seoul for this moment, and she was determined to savor every second of it.
The morning was brisk as Aera stepped outside, the cool air brushing her cheeks. She tucked her hands into the pockets of her coat and began walking down the bustling streets of the city. Today wasn't just about the concert—it was about fully immersing herself in the experience.
She started her day at a cafe not far from the guesthouse, where she ordered a cup of steaming Americano and a croissant. The cafe was filled with soft chatter, and Aera noticed a couple of other patrons sporting BTS-themed accessories. She smiled to herself, already feeling a sense of camaraderie.

After breakfast, she decided to explore the streets leading to the Olympic Stadium, where the concert would be held later that evening. Even hours before the gates were set to open, the area buzzed with excitement. Vendors lined the sidewalks, their stalls overflowing with BTS merchandise. Posters of the members smiled down from every direction, and Aera couldn't help but stop and admire them.
As she wandered, Aera found herself drawn to a small group of fans gathered around a street vendor selling unofficial BTS pins and keychains.
"Look at this one!" a girl exclaimed, holding up a tiny charm shaped like a purple heart with Jungkook's bunny logo etched in the center.
Aera hesitated for a moment before stepping closer. "That's adorable," she said softly.
The girl turned, her face lighting up. "It is, isn't it? Are you here for the concert, too?"
"Yes," Aera replied, smiling. "It's my first one."
"Ah, a concert newbie! You're going to love it," the girl said warmly. "The energy, the lights, the songs—it's pure magic."
Encouraged by the girl's enthusiasm, Aera decided to buy a small pin featuring the BTS logo. "For good luck," she said aloud, pinning it onto her bag.
Further down the street, Aera spotted an official merchandise booth with a long line of fans waiting eagerly. She joined the queue, her heart skipping a beat as she saw the display of ARMY Bomb lightsticks glinting under the sunlight.
