"Oh, what’s with this atmosphere?"

    "Aren’t they just running through the choreography before the action scene?"

    All eyes in the rehearsal space turned toward Seoyeon and Min Doha.

    Shooting an action scene required extensive preparation.

    Perfect synchronization was necessary to avoid accidents, and if they were utilizing a set, everything needed to be adjusted accordingly.

    Of course, today was just practice—

    The real shoot would take place tomorrow.

    "Min Doha started getting into character first, and Ju Seoyeon just matched her energy."

    "Full of fire?"

    "What the hell are they talking about? There’s no fire here."@@@@
