HANI said, "While I was waiting, there were about three team members from other labels, and a female manager passed by.
At that time, I properly greeted the members, but 5 to 10 minutes later, they came out again, and as they were leaving, my eyes met with the manager. Then, the manager was standing behind me.

I know very well that this will pass, so I want this problem to be resolved before we discuss the future."
