I don't think anything wrong with my query here

SELECT first_name, CONCAT(first_name." ".(username)) AS display_name FROM users;

If you want to display parentheses around the user name, you need them in quotes, and as arguments to the CONCAT function. You also won't select the first_name separately, since it is included in the display_name.

:warning: SPOILER ALERT

SELECT CONCAT(first_name, " (", username, ")") AS display_name FROM users;
