The lights dimmed low, casting a serene blue hue across the stage.
The LED screens showed the ocean.
Some of people in the crowd found it strange how they had trees under the ocean; however, they let it go for a moment to focus on their performance.
In the center, surrounded by the two large makeshift cherry blossoms, stood EVE, clad in the dignified attire of Yishang, a male variation of the traditional Chinese Hanfu.
Angel frowned, and she looked to the side to see Jayden wearing the same expression.
"What are they going to perform?" she asked.
Jayden snapped out of his thoughts and placed his hand under his chin.
"It's strange," he said. "I saw them a while back, and I thought they were going to perform their own songs."
"Me too," Angel muttered.
The crowd was even more confused, wondering why a K-Pop group was wearing their traditional clothing. It was the first time for foreign artists to embrace a heritage that resonated deeply with the Chinese people.
- I almost cursed. Why are they wearing such clothes?
- What are they even going to perform?
Murmurs were heard all around the field. However, they turned silent when the cameramen zoomed in on their faces.
The members of EVE stood in a straight line, holding each other's hands with closed eyes. Each member appeared ethereal with their natural, barely-there makeup. They exuded an aura of purity and grace, and the people couldn't help but marvel at their beauty.
- Well, these friends are actually really handsome.
- A group with no visual holes? That's new!
- But what song are they going to sing? Don't tell me they're going to sing their own song while wearing those outfits?
Suddenly, the intro of '52' by none other than Jayden Chou filled the stadium.
Once more, Jayden and Angel turned to each other with furrowed eyebrows.
"They're going to perform my song?" he asked.
"It's been a long time since you released this song, right?" she said.
"Yes," Jayden nodded. "It's been four years, I believe. It's a popular song with no music video."
"May I ask why?" Angel asked.
"It's because I couldn't capture the loneliness of the song. I thought it would be better if I just left it alone."
Paired with the sound of the ocean waves along with the deep blue hues that danced behind them on the LED screen, she couldn't help but appreciate their performance.
"I stumbled upon an island, a place of breathtaking beauty.
A world painted in colors I've never known.
But when I turn around, seeking another's eyes.
I find only the expanse, the empty sky."
- Is it possible to fall in love with a voice?
- Who sang this? Are they using a cover for their performance?
- Why isn't anyone complaining that they're not singing live?
- Because they appear too beautiful, brother. Have you seen any other foreign artist put out a stage like
this?
The boys danced once more, with Zeth as the center this time. His visuals didn't fail this time around, too, and the crowd gasped as his pained expression was shown on the large screen.
- Help me. I'm getting sucked into his beautiful eyes.
- What's his name? Please, can someone tell me what his name is?
-No one. He's the manager.
- He's a staff member.
- He's Zeth. He's the main visual of EVE and a talented rapper and dancer.
-Goodness. This is too beautiful.
Zeth reached his hand toward the cherry blossoms, but he couldn't seem to reach it.
No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't reach it.
As the storyline progressed, the crowd started understanding the link between the cherry
blossoms under the deep waters.
Being heard.
Being seen.
It was impossible.
Just like Cherry Blossoms under the ocean.
