When he got to the school, he had a weird feeling. When he opened the lunch box, he realized that 5 of the dumplings disappeared. So, he continued walking and then opened his lunch box again, now, only 5 dumplings left. He looked back but no one’s there.

Beomgyu revealed that Hueningkai had told this story in the past with the members when they are shared scary stories with each other.

He claimed that he and the members “were very scared” because of how “good at storytelling” Hueningkai was that they never thought the end would be humorous. Imagine TXT getting scared over dumplings! Adorable!
