The excitement in the air was almost tangible as Y/N and her best friend, Kim Soojin, hurried toward the massive circus tent that had set up in their town for six days. The vibrant red and gold stripes gleamed under the festival lights, and the chatter of the eager crowd filled their ears.
“This is going to be amazing,” Soojin grinned, holding tightly onto her ticket.
Y/N nodded, barely able to contain her own excitement. She had always loved the mystique of the circus—the daring performances, the magic of it all. As they took their seats in the fourth row, the lights dimmed, and a single spotlight illuminated the stage.
A tall, charismatic man in a showman’s coat stepped forward, his presence commanding attention.
“Welcome, ladies and gentlemen, to the Sky High Circus!” he announced with a grand gesture. “I am Oh Sion, your host for tonight. Our journey started in a small village, but now, we stand before you as one of the greatest circuses in the world!”
The audience erupted into cheers, Y/N and Soojin clapping eagerly.
The first act was introduced—a young performer named Sakuya, who entered riding an elegant elephant. The majestic creature moved gracefully, lifting its trunk as Sakuya waved at the audience. Laughter and applause filled the tent, and Y/N and Soojin cheered for the talented boy.
Next came Riku, a fire-breathing performer. The lights dimmed once more, and with one deep breath, he blew out a stream of fire, shaping it into mesmerizing patterns. The crowd roared with excitement, and Y/N felt her pulse quicken at the sheer thrill of it all.
During the intermission, she and Soojin scrolled through their phones, reliving the best moments so far, until they spotted a familiar figure weaving through the crowd.
“It’s Jaehee, the famous clown!” Soojin whispered excitedly.
Children surrounded him, eagerly reaching for the colorful balloon animals he created with expert ease. Noticing Y/N and Soojin, Jaehee approached with a playful grin.
