The quietwriter's corner

✦ THE SCOUTING ✦

One day, when Y/N was about twelve, her performance school hosted an international showcase. She’d chosen to sing and dance — something between a pop song and a dance routine she made up herself.

In the audience sat a JYP Entertainment agent visiting Europe for trainee scouting.

After her performance — sweaty, grinning, and still catching her breath — the agent approached her mom.

“She has it,” he said. “The spark.”

Charles found out the next morning. They were sitting on the dock, dangling their feet over the water, Monaco sun bouncing off the surface.

“You’re going to Korea?” he said, voice quiet.

“They offered me a trainee contract.”

“Then you have to go.”

“But what about racing?”

“You’ll come back. And when you do, we’ll still race — just with bigger helmets.”

They promised to chase their dreams — in different worlds, but never apart.

✦ GOT7 ERA ✦

Y/N debuted a few years later as the 8th member of GOT7 — the group’s first and only female member.

It was shocking to fans at first. But the boys instantly made it clear that she was family.

Jackson: “She’s the chaos we didn’t know we needed.”

JB: “She’s more like the 8th brother who just happens to have good eyeliner.”

BamBam: “She scares me sometimes.”

She trained harder than anyone. When she wasn’t practicing for a comeback, she was secretly flying out for karting sessions.

The members covered for her constantly.

Mark: “Y/N’s at pilates again.”

Jinyoung: “Pilates doesn’t smell like gasoline, Mark.”

Yugyeom: “She said it helps with… flexibility?”

But they never stopped supporting her. When Charles got signed to Ferrari, she was screaming in the dorm, shaking everyone awake.

“CHARLIE’S IN FORMULA ONE!”

“What time is it?”

“WHO CARES, CHARLES MADE IT!”

Two years later, when she finally signed with a Formula team, Jackson cried like she’d just won the Olympics.

“Our maknae’s driving literal missiles now! I’m so proud!”

✦ THE HIATUS ✦

When GOT7 went on their 3-year hiatus, Y/N threw herself into racing.

Every driver on the grid knew her name. She was the rookie who was also an idol — the one who wore race suits with glittered helmet decals and occasionally used her mic voice on team radio.

She was chaos and charisma.

Lando: “She called me a coward on lap three.”

Y/N: “You were a coward, Lando.”

Max: “She’s more aggressive than me.”

Charles: “I taught her well.”

When the group finally reunited, Y/N was already known worldwide — the idol who conquered the grid.

✦ THE COMEBACK ✦

Their new song, “Python,” was everything the fans wanted — dark, seductive, confident.

Y/N helped brainstorm the concept — the idea of control, power, and attraction, all in one beat.

“Let’s make it sound dangerous,” she told JB and Yugyeom in the studio. “Like confidence that could kill you if you’re not careful.”

And so, the lyrics were born.

🎵 She got a grip on me like a python / Twisting up my heart, I can’t move on / Venom in her stare, she’s the icon / I’m trapped but I don’t wanna run. 🎵

Fans went feral when it dropped.

Y/N wasn’t just the group’s youngest anymore — she was the group’s energy.

Her stage presence was magnetic, her smile disarming, her performance energy borderline dangerous.

Male fans loved her confidence; female fans wanted to be her.

She’d walk off stage in ripped jeans and a bomber jacket, and both fanbases collectively lost their minds.

“Y/N owns me.”

“She got a grip like a python, and I’m okay with it.”

“Gender envy. That’s it. That’s the post.”

✦ THE KOREAN GP ✦

When Formula 1 announced its return to Korea, the organizers wanted something big — something that represented both Korean culture and global fame.

The first name on the list? GOT7.

When the group heard the offer, Y/N nearly fell off her chair.

“Wait, the Korean GP? As in Formula 1?!”

Jackson: “You mean your second home.”

Jinyoung: “Don’t crash the stage this time.”

Y/N: “No promises.”

✦ PERFORMANCE DAY ✦

The Seoul circuit was packed — the grandstands overflowing with fans, both holding GOT7 lightsticks and waving F1 team flags.

As the lights dimmed, a hush fell over the track.

A single spotlight illuminated Y/N, standing at center stage in a sleek black bodysuit patterned with iridescent green scales — a visual echo of the “Python” theme.

The bass dropped.

🎵 She got a grip on me like a python / Every move she makes, my breath is gone / Got me tangled, I can’t fight none / Girl’s a danger — and I like it, uh. 🎵

The choreography was sharp, hypnotic. GOT7 moved around her like shadows, the unity of their movement showing years of chemistry.

The camera panned to the paddock —

Charles was watching with a proud grin.

Lando was leaning on the barrier, jaw slack.

Max tried to look unimpressed, failed miserably.

Oscar whispered, “How does she do both?”

And Carlos? He just said, “That’s power. That’s Y/N.”

The female fans screamed every time the camera focused on her — her confident smirk, the way she moved with complete control, her aura radiating “I run this.”

And the male fans? Equally gone.

Half the grid looked like they were reconsidering their entire existence.

George: “This is… distracting.”

Yuki: “Bro, she’s my bias and my driver.”

Daniel: “I feel things I shouldn’t before a race.”

When the bridge hit, Y/N took center stage again, voice cutting through the bass:

🎵 You can’t escape, no matter what you try / I’m wrapped around your soul tonight / Venom on my lips, and I can’t deny / You love the danger — so do I. 🎵

The lights exploded. The crowd roared.

Even the F1 commentators were caught off guard.

“That might be the most electric pre-race show we’ve ever seen.”

✦ AFTER THE SHOW ✦

Y/N ran off stage, chest heaving, laughter bubbling from her throat. The GOT7 boys tackled her in a hug, Jackson yelling, “YOU ATE THAT—LIKE AN ACTUAL PYTHON!”

Later, in the paddock, the drivers swarmed her.

Lando: “That performance… my jaw still hurts.”

Y/N: “From dropping?”

Lando: “Yes.”

Max: “You do realize you’ve made half the grid your fans, right?”

Charles: “Half? Try all.”

Y/N: “Good. I’ll take their sponsors next.”

The internet was on fire.

Hashtags like #PythonQueenY/N, #MaknaeOfMayhem, and #DriverIdolLegend trended in 15 countries.

Edits flooded TikTok and Twitter — clips of her wink during the bridge set to engine sounds.

One fan tweeted:

“She’s not just got a grip like a python — she’s got the whole world in a chokehold.”

End.
