The dining area is a strange place.

It's not the venue. It's actually a really nice area even if the tables are a little too squished together.

But it's got this really weird segregation thing going on with the trainees. Like, everybody who's in the same class sits at the same table and that's about it. It happened at breakfast as well, and Youngjae couldn't help but notice how nobody sat with anybody not from their class.
