The afternoon’s singular mission: a matcha run to find the city's best whisked greens. Sethlore’s Hyegyo, Soigné’s Joy, and Liesbon’s Gemma, we have turned a simple caffeine fix into a full-blown editorial. The weather is just super hot—the kind of relentless sun that makes us seek refuge under striped awnings and crave the sharp clink of ice against glass. We spent the hours documenting the glow; capturing the day's palette on a vintage digicam and leaving behind a trail of photobooth strips and spilled sunlight. There is a certain art to finding the perfect shade when the temperature peaks. Just a crisp white shirt, a bitter-sweet iced latte, and the pursuit of a ceremonial grade that feels as cool as it looks. We are currently hiding from the glare with our third iced drink of the day—how is everyone's Saturday treating them so far?

Schmidt’s Juhoon was casually trying a filter he found on BeReal when someone peeked from behind his phone. It was Visnja’s Ian, and she even brought her cat. Isn’t it hilarious how the cat also got captured by the filter? 🤣 Schmidt’s Juhoon showed the results to Visnja’s Ian, and they both burst into laughter, which made Liesbon’s A-na curious.

Liesbon’s A-na decided to grab the phone from Schmidt’s Juhoon’s hand and take a silly picture with Thimblea’s Seonghyeon. They were all laughing at the ridiculous photos, and because they were being so loud, they caught the attention of everyone nearby. One by one, heads started popping in, starting from Siegern’s Dain, Scalden’s Keonho, Langforth’s Seonghyeon, Mirthwood’s Seonghyeon, Wilkins’ Martin, Langforth’s Juhoon, Scalden’s Woojin, Bosche’s A-na, Sethlore’s Juun until Delaire’s Keonho. They began passing the phone around, each person taking their turn, experimenting with poses, expressions, and even angles.

Mirthwood’s Seonghyeon tried to look cool (which failed miserably), while Langforth’s Juhoon intentionally made the ugliest hair and face possible just to make everyone laugh harder, which worked perfectly. At some point, the room became too loud, too full, too alive. Voices overlapped. Laughter echoed. Siegern’s Dain almost fell off the couch. Visnja’s Ian’s cat made a second appearance, earning even louder cheers when it got caught in the filter again, LOL. 🤣
