What happened just before Dae performed the single in XO Kitty season 2?

Just before Dae was set to perform at the Moon's Young Talent Showcase for a chance to open for Joon Ho's world tour, his backup dancers fell seriously ill. This was part of a devious plan orchestrated by Stella, Min Ho's girlfriend, who wanted to eliminate the competition to secure her own victory.

Dae found himself at a loss after this setback, but his friends, Kitty, Min Ho, Yuri, Q, and others, stepped up for him and provided much-needed support. While most of Dae's friends stepped in as backup dancers, Min Ho cheered him on from the sidelines.

They even enlisted KISS's (Korean Independent School of Seoul) principal, Daniel Lee, to play the guitar. He kicked off the performance with the opening notes of Jungkook's Seven, energizing both the audience and Dae as they dove into the show.
