The sky glowed rosy pink as the legions of BLINKs waved the group's hammer-shaped lightsticks in hand. Prudential Center had three levels instead of four, and the boost in attendance could easily be felt at MetLife.

She surveyed the BLINKs seated at the edges of the venue before turning to members Jisoo, Rose and Lisa with a look of disbelief.
