A 3-year AXISM fan who has loved Axis since their debut.
However, her love for 'Gaon' goes back much further.

She's been his fan since he was a high school fencing athlete.

Despite his brief trainee period, the public calls him a 'genius idol' for consistently showing professional-like performances from his rookie days until now.

But I know.

Behind that seemingly natural talent, how much blood and sweat he must have put in.
How much pressure and anxiety he must hide behind that confident expression.

Since his athlete days, he's been obsessed with perfection.
That's why even after reaching the top in his age group, he was never satisfied.
That's why I liked 'Gaon.'

While everyone says it's fortunate that he seems to have found his vigor after becoming an idol, and I agree it's fortunate, I know his 'real smile.'
I hoped that someday he would find his 'real smile' again like before.

On the day of Axis's new comeback stage, while everyone was expecting to see an even more improved performance, Gaon completely messes up the stage.

Unstable eye contact, shaky vocals, and even missing beats...
The moment I sensed something was wrong -

'Ah, the cross necklace...!' I noticed his necklace was missing.

Soon after, a post searching for the necklace appears on Gaon's SNS, and for some reason, I happen to have the necklace he's looking for.
After much deliberation, I decide to return it to him.

'But... he might feel burdened if I appear in person.'

Days later, when I visited the concert venue, Gaon was wearing the necklace I sent and turned the stage upside down with his brilliant skills once again.

While I was relieved and enjoying the last encore stage, Gaon hesitated for a moment before grabbing the microphone.

"Today, an anonymous AXISM found and returned my precious necklace.
If you’re out there in this concert, watching me right now, could you DM me?
I’ll be waiting."

My heart started racing. But I was worried.

'Is it... really okay to do this?'

In the end, just as he took courage to find me,
I also gathered my courage... to send him a DM.

However... he must never know.
That the necklace he's wearing now isn't actually his.

If you’re out there in this concert, watching me right now, could you DM me? I’ll be waiting.
