A certain Ms. Kim, a devoted fan, sat on the sofa next to her sibling, both eagerly awaiting this week's live broadcast. When she saw Yuje's post on the official social media account, she let out a relieved sigh.
"Our little hamster...! Oh my god, it was an allergy all along..."
Ever since reports of Reve being spotted at the emergency room had surfaced, Ms. Kim had been in a state of constant anxiety.
Yuje, already struggling to shake off his image as frail—his detractors called him "weakling"—despite his impressive performances at ISAC, couldn't afford another emergency room sighting. For his fans, this news was far from welcome.
Of course, I was also worried about the artist's health.
At Ms. Kim's tearful outburst, her sibling, looking genuinely bewildered, asked, "Don't you feel any cognitive dissonance calling a person an animal?"
"Of course not! Our Eden is a BabyKitten!" she replied confidently.
Her sibling smirked and pointed a finger at the TV screen. "Ah, that?"
The previous episode had shown Eden undergoing basic training at the training camp and participating in a Ranger Training gear inspection.
The scene Ms. Kim's sibling was pointing to now showed Eden grimacing as he performed PT Exercise #6.
Was it the effect of the no-makeup military uniform, or perhaps the grimace itself? Even Ms. Kim, who fervently believed in the "Yoon Eden is a BabyKitten" theory, couldn't see him as a baby kitten in that moment.
"Wow, a celebrity really is a celebrity. Even in a frog costume, his face shines."
Hearing her sibling's admiration, Ms. Kim rubbed her eyes, wondering if she was seeing things.
Wait, where did the black baby kitten go? And who's this man in his twenties...?

Eden doesn't look like a baby kitten anymore...
Stop Yoon Eden's Moeification @AK5ASDF1Z

Yoon Eden isn't a baby kitten. He's a fully limbed, over 180 cm tall, intimidating man in his twenties. Please stop moeifying Yoon Eden as a baby kitten.

What do I do...? I can't see Eden as a BabyKitten anymore either.
We were the corrupt forces all along...
As A certain Ms. Kim and her Twitter friend reeled from this revelation, PT Exercise 8 had already begun.
"Ah, that one's tough. It's so tough that..."
As Ms. Kim listened to her military-veteran sibling's chuckles and unsolicited explanations, she gazed at her "baby" on the screen—Eden, writhing on the muddy ground—with an expression of heart-wrenching tenderness.
Then, Eden, who had been staring intently at the Assistant Instructor approaching him, blinked and suddenly winked at the man.
- What was that?
- I never thought Eden would resort to such a cute attack on the Assistant Instructor!
- Why does he look so cheerful? ㅋㅋㅋ
It was the moment Ms. Kim began pushing her "Yoon Eden is a BabyKitten" theory once more.
[Assistant Instructor: 227, Owl! Lift your head and extend your legs further!]
[Private Yoon Eden: Ack!]
[The Assistant Instructor's expression remains unchanged despite the sudden wink attack.]
Of course, this half-hearted attempt at charm had no effect on the Instructor, and Eden quickly resumed the proper military posture.
"Why did our kid suddenly wink at the assistant instructor? Could Yuje have advised him to act cute if things got tough? The assistant instructor's lip twitched slightly, so it might have worked a little."
"That wasn't acting cute at all. It looked more like he was sending a signal. Do you think they know each other?"
As the other panelists were gradually eliminated due to mistakes, only Eden remained steadfastly in formation until the end.
After the PT Exercises concluded, Eden's individual interview screen appeared.
Q. You seemed to know one of the assistant instructors. Are you acquainted?
Private Yoon Eden: He's a high school friend. I never expected to run into him here...
A group selfie from a barbecue restaurant was shown as supporting footage. The faces of everyone except Eden and the assistant instructor were blurred, and a tag identified them as high school classmates.
Even amidst the chaos, Ms. Kim couldn't help but admire the perfect angle of the photo she had taken. Following Eden's interview, the assistant instructor's interview appeared.
Assistant Instructor Kim Woochan: I won't show favoritism just because we're friends. This is the military, after all.
The scene replayed: Eden receiving a wink, immediately followed by the assistant instructor's furious shout to straighten up.
Private Yoon Eden: No chance of getting off easy.
"Hey, this is insane! How did he run into his friend here?" Ms. Kim's sibling clutched their stomach, laughing.
After PT Exercises, the Ranger Training continued with rope crossing. This involved traversing a wide, muddy area while hanging from a single rope.
Everyone either fell spectacularly into the water or barely scraped their legs across the surface, resulting in failures or ambiguous successes.
Finally, it was Eden's turn, the last to go.
At the assistant instructor's call, Eden strode confidently forward, his face relaxed and showing no trace of nervousness. He gripped the rope tightly and reported:
Private Yoon Eden: 227, Owl. Crossing preparations complete!
Assistant Instructor: Cross!
At the command, Eden launched himself off the platform, maintaining his grip on the rope.
He landed flawlessly without touching the water, his posture perfect. Spreading his arms wide, he shouted:
Private Yoon Eden: Crossing complete!
A new Ace is born?
The camera panned across the faces of the panelists: the original Ace, his eyes wide with surprise; the other panelists, their faces filled with admiration; and the assistant instructors, their expressions a mix of shock and disbelief.
"Hey, what's with him? That's not supposed to be so easy!"
The online reaction was equally fervent.
- That's our proud leader, the Ace of ISAC!
- My younger brother, a former Ranger Training Assistant Instructor, is giving him a standing ovation right now. He says that's incredibly difficult!
- My prayer for Eden to fall into the water didn't work...
└ Why would you want that?
└ I just wanted to see him soaking wet.
└ That's muddy water, you wouldn't get the visual you're hoping for.
Q. Have you ever experienced Ranger Training before...?
Private Yoon Eden: I had a brief experience during a middle school retreat, maybe when I was in 8th grade...
"He can actually do that? It's not something you can just pull off so easily after trying it once!"
As Ms. Kim's family members craned their necks and muttered, the camera focused on the panelists waddling like ducks to the next Ranger Training course.
Assistant Instructor Kim Woochan barked at Eden, who was grimacing and struggling up the steep incline in a duck walk.
Assistant Instructor Kim Woochan: 227, Owl! No slacking!
Private Yoon Eden: I'm not slacking!
Assistant Instructor Kim Woochan: What did I tell you to answer with?!
Private Yoon Eden: Ack!
A resentful glare at his friend...
- [ LOL Eden's glaring at his friend right now! ]
- [ Eden's friend's nostrils are flaring! LOL He's clearly trying not to laugh! ]
- How did our Yoon Leader end up like this...? But if it were the other Reve members, it wouldn't be this entertaining... ㅋㅋㅋ
└ Our Bambi Yehyeon is collapsing...
"They're being tougher on him because he's a friend. His posture is textbook perfect."
Ms. Kim's sibling watched the TV with rapt attention.
His eyes, which had been frozen by repeated failures, had been thawing ever since Eden's success.
When Eden completed the next weaving exercise a full second faster than the Assistant Instructor, he became completely hyped.
"Hey, what's that guy's deal? He's so cool! Is he from Taereung?"
"No, he's from the Underground."
"Ah, he did hip-hop? That's so badass."
- My brother suddenly started downloading Reve's songs...
- Is Yoon Eden a veteran?
- Underground and Taereung lost their talents to the idol industry.
Q. He looks like he's done this before?
Private Yoon Eden: This was from training camp... But why was there a Ranger Training course at the camp in the first place...? Did they take us there on purpose because it was an all-boys middle school...?
Eden tilted his head, his expression captured on camera.
They say a man's hairstyle is everything, and his rat-chewed-looking buzzcut wig certainly detracted from his usual appearance. Still, his natural features were strong enough that he didn't look bad.
Q. So, what Ranger Training exercises haven't you done?
Private Yoon Eden: Well, we didn't do CBRN training. They wouldn't make middle schoolers complete the full Ranger Training course, would they?
Eden grinned, his eyes crinkling into a refreshing smile.
During a break in the barracks, snack time had turned into Eden's semi-mandatory stage time, all because he was an idol.
-I thought he'd rap, but he's singing ㅋㅋㅋ
-He raps too ㅋㅋㅋ
-Why One Chance?
└It has the fewest high notes and the most rap parts.
└Ah
-But everyone's clapping out of politeness... ㅋㅋㅋ
-LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL
-Is Yoon Eden crazy? ㅋㅋ
-Wow, he's doing a girl group song drift here ㅋㅋ
When Eden switched from Reve's song to a famous girl group's signature choreography and song, the panel members, acting as the audience, responded enthusiastically.
Q. How did you end up doing a girl group song?
[Private Yoon Eden: Promised to be excused from trench combat?]
The scene alternated between Eden scratching his head with a detached expression and Eden, covered in muddy trench water, gritting his teeth as he pushed against his opponent.
-To the person who said they wanted to see him soaking wet, is this what you wanted?
└No, this isn't it at all.
-He said he'd be excused! ㅋㅋㅋ Why is he in there singing girl group songs? ㅋㅋㅋ
The broadcast ended with a brief preview of the following week's episode, which would be the final installment of the Ranger Training arc.
"Hey, he's kind of cool. What's his name again? Yoon Eden?"
As Ms. Kim listened to her family's lingering admiration for the show, she posted on social media:
Dream♥Daydream @revedream
If you watch Namhomae's next episode, you'll definitely become a Reve stan...
My family keeps looking up Yoon Eden and gushing about him.

In the end, the Reve members who had successfully watched this week's broadcast live each patted me on the back.
"You worked hard, Eden."
"Wow, I'm so glad I didn't go."
"Singing girl group songs and still doing this... You're truly a True Leader."
"Hyung, you were totally awesome!"
Yes, as long as you guys appreciate my efforts, that's all that matters.
