Many people noticed them and asked to take photos together.
After that, they went to go glamping. Block B’s Park Kyung was the one who drove the car and Kim Ji-seok complained every time Park Kyung stepped on the brake very suddenly. On their way to the glamping site, they were talking about inviting female idols with them and idol manual. Before arriving, they stopped by the supermarket to buy food and beverages for their glamping. After arriving at the glamping site, they went to their cabin and started to cook dinner. During their dinner, they were talking about many things and this trip together indeed brought them closer than before.
