The Reunion You Didn't Ask For

The holiday season has finally arrived, and the air was filled with energy that only this time of year could bring. 

Snow dusted the streets outside the towering venue, a massive stadium lit up, welcoming idols and fans alike to what was easily one of the most anticipated event of the year. 

Every year, the grand stage set new standards for performances, but this year, it felt even bigger. 

Something has definitely changed in the idol industry. 

For the first time, groups from various companies—big and small—gathered to perform on the same stage. 

Performances were trimmed to showcase only the highlights, giving every group, regardless of size or fame, a moment in the spotlight. 

Every act was being valued now. It was a sign of progress in an industry that had long been dominated by only a few.
