Chapter 1033: Who Are You?



As DAWN stepped off the stage, the crowd's cheers and claps still echoed behind them.

The boys' faces were flushed, and their breaths came out in heavy pants from the explosive performance they had just delivered.

There were wide smiles on their faces.

They knew they'd left an impact, but the extent of it was only beginning to reveal itself.

Online, the comments were already piling up, many from people who had never heard of them before.

- Who the hell was that? I couldn't understand a single word, but it was like I could feel it.

- I don't know who DAWN is, but that performance was insane. Explosive. Like... the Big Bang Theory kind of explosive.

- I tuned in for Tyler King, but damn, these guys might be the highlight of the night.

- Am I the only one who got goosebumps? They didn't have any flashy props or a backtrack, yet it felt like a full production.

- Their voices? Unreal. Are they really singing live?

June took one last glance at the crowd as they moved offstage, catching the wide-eyed stares from several people who had been watching on the big screens.

He grinned in satisfaction.

"Did you hear that?" Ren said breathlessly as they walked into the backstage corridor. He was vibrating with excitement. "I swear, the whole arena was screaming!"

Akira slapped him on the back, laughing. "And here I thought we'd be drowned out by all the big names."

"Not tonight," Jisung said, still catching his breath. He looked around, feeling proud of their group.

People who hadn't given them a second glance earlier were now watching them with

curiosity.

As they made their way through the backstage area, they were intercepted by none other than Sabrina Thatcher.

"Hey," she called out, a wide smile on her face as she approached. "I knew it. You guys were incredible out there."

"Thank you," Casper smiled. "It really means a lot."

"That was the best live vocals ever-more than anyone tonight!"

Casper was grinning ear to ear. "We're huge fans, Sabrina. Thank you."

"Well, you've made a fan out of me, too," she said, giving a playful wink. Then, she looked at June longer, making the others turn to him with raised eyebrows.

"Dang it," Akira muttered. "We lost another hottie to June."

The lights dimmed again, and the familiar face of Sabrina Thatcher appeared on the screen, making her way up to the podium.

The crowd erupted into cheers and applause as she smiled, waving to the audience.

"All right, everyone, let's get to it," Sabrina said, her voice ringing out.

"I'm here to present the award for the Fan's Choice Award."

This was one of the most coveted awards of the night, representing global charts, voting, hashtag relevance, and music video views and streams.

It was an award that took into account not only the numbers but the fans' dedication. "You all know how this works," Sabrina continued with a playful smile. "This award is about the people's voice, the ones who support us day in and day out. It's about the fans who make sure we know we're loved-loudly and with a lot of hashtags."

The screen behind her lit up, showing the list of nominees. Tyler King's name was there, along with several other huge artists. But at the very bottom of the list was a name that stood

out to DAWN.

"And the Fan's Choice Award goes to..."

She paused for dramatic effect, letting the anticipation build.

The camera panned over the crowd, capturing the excited faces of fans and the tense looks of

the nominees.

Finally, she looked back at the camera, a huge grin on her face.

"DAWN!"

The boys froze for a second in disbelief before the realization hit them.

They had won.

Jaeyong looked like he might cry (like always). "We actually did it," he whispered, shaking his

head.

Akira jumped up, pulling the others into a tight hug. "We did it!" he shouted.

As they made their way to the stage to accept the award, June couldn't help but look back at

Tyler King, who was still sitting in his seat, staring blankly at the screen.

It was a look of utter shock and defeat.

June stopped right in front of him, turning slightly with a mocking. He leaned in just enough

so that Tyler could hear him over the noise of the crowd.

"Who are you?" June asked, his voice dripping with arrogance.
