There are $32$ students in the class with $10$ interesting group. Each group contains exactly $16$ students. For each couple of students, the square of the number of the groups which are only involved by just one of the two students is defined as their $interests-disparity$. Define $S$ as the sum of the $interests-disparity$ of all the couples, $\binom{32}{2}\left ( =\: 496 \right )$ ones in total. Determine the minimal possible value of $S$.
