"The wait is over, Seoul! The K-pop world is in for a SHOCK today-NovaMuse Entertainment, the agency known for producing the finest girl groups of each generation, has just dropped the biggest announcement of the year!" A bright, excited reporter in a cherry-pink blazer beamed into the camera, the NovaMuse logo spinning behind her.
Screens flickered across Seoul, from giant LED billboards in Myeongdong to tiny ramen shop TVs, every channel buzzing with the same breaking broadcast.
"After the legendary 'Starlight Sisters' disbanded, rumors swirled about NovaMuse going bankrupt or even shutting down. For years, the company stayed silent...until today." The broadcast cut to clips of fans swirling outside the company, eyes wide, while background shots of NovaMuse's towering glass building flashed on the screen.
At a bustling bus stop, a cluster of university students paused mid-chew on their street toast, eyes glued to the giant screen overhead.
"Bro, NovaMuse? Weren't they dead?" one guy muttered, nearly dropping his coffee.
"Shut up, Minho, listen!" Hana elbowed him.
"NovaMuse has just announced the debut of their newest girl group, a name already sweeping through trending hashtags. Introducing: HUNTR/X!"
Crowds watching on the street gasped and pulled out their phones, recording the moment.
Footage flashed of three girls in silhouette, standing in a smoky hallway, neon lights glowing behind them.
"HUNTR/X consists of three members, each rumored to have trained for years under NovaMuse's legendary system, preparing for THIS moment. And Seoul—" the reporter leaned forward dramatically, "—their debut is TODAY!"
A bus driver slowed down to watch the screen outside the Gwanghwamun intersection, shaking his head with a soft chuckle.
"These kids... going to break the internet again," he mumbled.
"AHHH DAEBAK!! THEY JUST RELEASED THE MEMBERS PROFILES! MOVE, MOVE, MOVE!"Hana yelled. "Jinjja??" Minho questioned in disbelief.

[NovaMuse Entertainment Official Announcement]
DING! Notifications exploded their phones.
HUNTR/X's debut mv-'HOW IT'S DONE! had just come out!
A nearby café full of uni students exploded in gasps.
Twitter hashtags shot up: #HUNTR/XDebut #HUNTR/XHowIt'sDone #NovaMuseIsBack
The sun was barely setting over Seoul when every giant screen—from Myeongdong to the Hongdae crosswalks—suddenly flickered. And at once all of the screens across the streets lit up, playing HUNTR/X's debut song! Almost every screen in the city exploded with-
🎵"Better sit down for the show
'Cause I'm gonna show you How It's DONE, DONE, DONE!"🎵
The beat was sharp, addictive and dangerously catchy.
Onscreen, Rumi walked confidently, her purple hair whipping as she hit a powerful note. Mira slid forward, body rolling, smirking. Zoey spun, her bright eyes and cheeky grin a burst of energy, spitting fire with every word as her rap part cut in.
The choreography was clean, fierce, yet carried a subtle elegance.Their voices intertwined: Rumi's clear high notes, Mira's low, raspy adlibs and Zoey's sharp but sweet raps.
As the final chorus exploded, Seoul stood frozen—eyes glued to the screens.
🎶"HUNTR/X, don't miss! How It's Done, Done, Done!"🎶 and that wasn't all!
At the end of the video, the members flashed wide, bright smiles and in perfect sync-
"Catch us LIVE tonight at 9PM KST for our first ever stage at Inkigayo!"
"NovaMuse x HUNTR/X – Let's show you how it's done!"
In a gaming café, a group of teens was screaming:
"Bro, DID YOU SEE THAT?!"
At a street food stall, a vendor clutched her chest:
"Aigoo, they're so pretty, and that song..."
A tired office worker stuck in traffic found herself smiling for the first time in weeks, tapping her steering wheel to the beat. Music stores screens played the MV on repeat.
Shops, cafés, even random convenience stores had "How It's Done" blasting on tiny speakers, the catchy beat following everyone down the streets.
By the time the city's neon lights flickered on, everyone was waiting.
The girls of HUNTR/X didn't know it yet, but they've just ignited the biggest wave K-pop has seen in years.
The air backstage was thick with hairspray, the scent of foundation, and the hum of nerves.
Staff members in black shirts dashed past with clipboards, headset wires tangling around their necks, calling out:
"Camera three, ready!"
"Lighting check, lighting check!"
"HUNTR/X on standby in ten minutes!"
In a cramped green room, Mira, and Zoey sat in their glittering black-silver stage outfits, the "HUNTR/X" logos shining under harsh vanity lights.
Zoey had been bouncing her leg so fast it's practically a blur, phone clutched in her hand.
Zoey (shakily): "What if I forget the choreography? What if my mic cuts off?
Oh my god, what if I trip and go viral for the wrong reason?"
Mira leaned against the wall, arms crossed, looking pretty chill with no signs of nervousness on her face.
Mira (rolling her eyes): "Relax, Maknae. You've practiced this a million times. And if you fall, at least do it with swag."
Zoey (widening eyes): "But what if I-"
Mira, adjusted her mic pack, but didn't look up.
Mira: "Then you freestyle. Just like in those fancams of your favorite artists."
Zoey pouted, stuffing her phone into the makeup pouch.
Zoey: "Why are you like this."
Mira (smirking): "Because I'm right."
Across the room, Rumi was standing in front of the mirror, eyes closed, taking slow, even breaths.
She heard it:
Her mother's gentle voice, fading in like a treasured memory.
"Your voice is more than a dream, Rumi. It's your mission. It's meant to protect people."
She opened her eyes, pressed her palm over her heart, steadying herself.
The door burst open, Bobby entered with a tray of water bottles and energy bars, face red from running.
Bobby: "Okay, hydration check! Energy bar check! Sanity check—"
Rumi took a bottle, giggling:
Rumi: "Bobby, you're sweating more than we are."
Bobby (mock offense): "Hey, this is your debut stage, I'm allowed to panic—"
He shoved a bottle into Mira's hand:
Bobby: "Drink."
Mira (raising an eyebrow): "Yes, dad."
Bobby: "I'm not old enough to be your dad—"
Zoey: "You are."
Bobby let out a loud sigh, muttering:
"I'm retiring after this…"
A staff member rushed in-
"HUNTR/X, standby now!"
Zoey: "Now? Okay, We GotTHIS!"
They gathered, arms looping around each other's shoulders.
Zoey's eyes were sparkling:
Zoey: "Let's do our chant!"
Mira: "For real this time, no messing it up."
Rumi (smiling): "Together."
They closed their eyes, breathing in unison:
"For the world we sing!
For the light we fight!
HUNTR/X—voices ignite!"
A rumble shook beneath their feet. They walked into the limelight, lights flickering above.
They heard it before they saw it—The roar of the crowd above, shaking the metal floor under their boots.
Zoey's eyes sparkled, lips parting in awe:
Zoey (whisper whisper): "They came…"
Rumi squeezed Zoey's hand:
Rumi: "Let's give them something worth remembering."
Mira (smirking): "Let's set the stage on fire!"
As they reached the center of the stage, the spotlights flooded upon them. Their hearts pounded in sync with the bass as the opening beat of "How It's Done" hit, the crowd screamed.
They stepped forward, their silhouettes outlined in strobing lights, ready to claim the world with their voices!
🎵"Hear our voice unwavering
'Til our song defeats the night
Makin' fear afraid to breathe
'Til the dark meets the light! (How it's done, done, done!)"🎵
✨Welcome to HUNTR/X's era!✨
