For those who don’t get it, each member has a representative “Dream Charm” or symbol. Descriptions on their website: https://t.co/fzmaAaw7zv
They also have personalized figurines. The figurines and each member’s symbol were scattered around in the Touch MV.#KATSEYE https://t.co/zrPIzer8iD pic.twitter.com/XwbzB6uoPZ
