@KpopDetective: WAIT. Haru is in Milan?? He just finished filming his drama like a few days ago! Did he fly there just for the tour? ✈️
@BlueMulletLuv: Look at how Raiven is standing next to Haru though... the height difference is giving me life.
@GemStone_Global: OMG IS THAT GEM?! They haven't been seen in the same frame since that fashion gala two years ago! Legends reuniting! 😭
@User9928: The blonde guy (Gem) is literally touching Raiven's chest. He's so flirty lmao. Haru looks like he wants to fight someone.
@DramaAddict: This friendship is top tier. Haru really flew 12 hours just to support his bestie's birthday/tour. Find me a friend like that.
@InternationalStay: Not the OP's toddler almost falling in the canal while she's filming a world-class scandal. I love being a fan.

@HaruArchive: Haru flying to Milan on a whim is the most "best friend" thing he's ever done. The support for Raiven is insane. Best friends 4ever. 🍓
@RaiveGemShipper: CAN WE TALK ABOUT GEM? The way he's leaning into Raiven? Some things never change. The chemistry is still sizzling after all this time. 🔥
@SunshineHaru: Look at Haru's face in the 0:08 mark. He looks so protective. I'm crying.
@KpopTea: Gem and Raiven have history. We all know they were "close" back in the day. Seeing Haru there makes this look like a very awkward reunion lol.
@IndustryInsider: This is great PR for Haru's upcoming drama. The "Rookie Actor" is now associated with global icons. His agency is winning.
@VibeCheck: I'm just here for the fashion. All three of them look like they're walking a runway in the middle of a rowboat dock.

@C-DramaFan: Haru's aura is no joke. He stands out even next to an idol like Raiven. He looks like a classic Wuxia hero in modern clothes.
@MilanTraveler: I saw them too! I didn't take a video because I was shocked. Raiven looked very happy before the blonde guy showed up.
@GemLover: Gem is so delicate and beautiful. He matches Raiven's "Ice Prince" aesthetic so well. A visual explosion.
@PeachTea: Why is Haru in Milan alone? No staff, no manager? This is definitely a personal trip to see Raiven. Their friendship is deep.
@FashionWitch: The contrast between Gem's silk outfit and Haru's rugged look is everything. Raiven is stuck between two worlds.
@BeijingBabe: I hope they all had a good dinner together. Reuniting with old friends in a foreign city is the best feeling.

u/IdolLover94: As a long-time Raiven stan, seeing Gem again is a jump scare. They have so much history from the 2024 fashion circuit. Seeing Haru there makes it a crossover episode I wasn't ready for.
u/DramaQueen: The body language is so loud. Haru looks like he's marking his territory without saying a word. I know they're "just friends" but the energy is ✨spicy✨.
u/BlueSky77: I'm just happy Raiven has friends like Haru. The idol life is lonely, but Haru seems to be there for him through everything.
u/GemStarlight: Gem being flirty is just Gem being Gem. He's always been like that with Raiven. It's cute that they stayed in touch!
u/HallyuWave: Does this mean Haru is becoming a regular in the Re-Draft circle?
u/MilanCoffee: I live in Milan and I'm literally crying that I missed this. They were right by the canals! A legendary visual trinity.
