IT was standard for films to hold screenings before their official release. Advanced screenings typically welcomed invited fans, while press screenings catered to critics and media. For [Serendipitous Summer], the studio opted for a combined event—hosting press, critics, and select fans together two days before the movie's official premiere.
The screening was held in a medium-sized theater near the capital's center—not the grandest venue, but one with impeccable acoustics and a reputation for hosting prestigious film events. Right now, under the glow of camera flashes, the red carpet event was in full swing.
The supporting cast had already made their entrance—men in tailored suits, women in flowing gowns. Now, only the leads and director remained. As murmurs of anticipation spread through the crowd, a black flying limousine glided to the carpet's edge, its doors parting with a near-silent hum.
