-Fcking awesome, I tell you.

- It really is legendary. I hope the live ends now so I can rewatch it over and over.

- Someone already posted the videos on Navel and LikLok. They're popping off right now.

- Why would someone do that? I'm still trying to gatekeep June!

- Girl, you're gatekeeping the hottest idol in Korea right now.

- I can still gatekeep him from international fans!

The game finally ended, and everybody was impressed, to say the least.

Ramil PD even stood to give June a round of applause. June scratched the back of his neck, suddenly feeling bashful from all the attention he was receiving.

Somehow, the editors of the show attached blushing cheeks and a ribbon to June's ear, causing his eyes to widen at the scene.

"Seriously, what do they think of me?" he exclaimed, already feeling upset. "The editing is outrageous!"

His teammates began to tease him.

"Aww, they made you coquette!" Jisung exclaimed.

June frowned. "Isn't that a food?" he whispered.

Fortunately, his members weren't able to hear him. Otherwise, they would squeeze him to death from cuteness aggression!

"Can I sit now?" June asked in the middle of the garden.

Ramil PD shook his head. "You still need to hear about your prize," he said.

June nodded, anticipating his prize. Ramil PD was also known for his generous prizes, so he looked forward to it.

"For the first prize, you shall be granted a coffee and snack truck!" Ramil PD announced. The others exclaimed in amazement, some in jealousy. However, most of them believed that June deserved it.

In K-Pop or K-Drama culture, a coffee/snack truck referred to a mobile vehicle or stall that served coffee, other beverages, and snacks.

These trucks were often sent to filming locations or events by fans, production companies, or sponsors as a gesture of support or appreciation for the cast and crew. It was a common sight on Korean drama sets where fans or production teams sent these trucks to provide

refreshments and boost morale during long filming hours.

"When can I use it?" June asked.

Ramil PD smiled. "Anytime and anywhere you want," he said. "You can just give me a call, and I'll get it arranged right away."

"Ah, I'm jealous!" Jordan exclaimed; however, there wasn't an ounce of bitterness in his voice.

"Originally, this is the only prize I've prepared," Ramil PD continued. "However, after seeing your effort, and since you're the only idol who has completed all 20 songs, I decided to give you an extra one!"

June tilted his head to the side in curiosity. The editors attached him with cat ears and a tail, causing June to sigh in frustration once again.

"Now, they're making you into a furry!" Casper exclaimed, appearing too excited for the edit.

- The editors get me. I resonate with them. Where can I apply for this job?

- Same. All I want is to push for my June kitty agenda.

- K-Pop is such a weird place. Imagine doing this for a Western artist.

- It would be weird as hell.

Ramil PD revealed his prize, causing June's eyes to widen in delight. It was the headphones that Joonie's team had won during the song guessing game!

- Aww, June looks so happy to receive it.

- Baby, I would buy you a hundred of those if it meant I would get to see your happy expression every

day.

-You guys sound like his mom.

-Me? No, I'm his sugar mommy.

- Alright, that's enough. I'm logging out.

June received the headset with a wide smile, causing Ramil PD to chuckle in amusement.

"Well, it seems like you're even happier with this than the coffee truck," he said.

June shook his head and secured the box between his arm and his torso.

"I'm happy for the two of them," he said.

However, Ramil PD was right when he said that he was definitely happier with the pair of headphones.

He appreciated the coffee truck, but he didn't know where to use it. Their music video filming still wasn't set in stone, so he felt it would still be a while before he could actually utilize it.

With the last game, Ramil PD stood in the middle of the garden.

"And that's it!" he exclaimed. "Thank you, everyone, especially to the artists, for sparing your time and effort to the shoot despite your busy schedules."

"We had fun!"

"It was great!"

Compliments for Ramil PD and the show were heard across the garden, causing the middle- aged man's cheeks to redden.

"Anyway, this has been Azure! See you next time in another episode of-Company's

Company!"

With that, the camera panned out and faded into black.

The boys sighed in satisfaction as soon as it was done.

"Ah, that was great," Zeth said, patting his stomach since he was already full from the popcorn. "I looked very good."

Ren rolled his eyes. "I'm glad that your looks are the first thing you've noticed," he sarcastically said.

"It was really fun," Jaeyong smiled. "I think our fans would increase once again!"

"Damn right!" Akira exclaimed. "June's random play dance is already going viral."

The boys continued speaking, forgoing the fact that the show was still running.

It was only when Joonie's voice resonated in the room that they snapped their attention back

to the television.

Casper clicked his tongue. "What's with him?"

"There seems to be some behind-the-scenes content," Jisung muttered, his eyes focused on

the screen.

"It was really great!" Joonie excitedly said to the camera. "I had so much fun with everyone, especially the members of EVE. I think I've grown closer to them."

"Bullshit!" Casper exclaimed.

Sehun shook his head in amusement, placing his hand on Casper's shoulder.

"Calm down, man. You really don't like him, huh?"

Casper enthusiastically nodded, not bothering to deny the accusation.

Fortunately, before Casper became more heated, the scene shifted.

It now showed June and Jisung standing underneath the tree shade.

"Here," June said, handing him the box of the new headphones.

June's eyebrows raised in surprise.

"What's this?" Jisung asked.

"Headphones," June deadpanned.

"For you."
