A simple property of the $S$-matrix of a pre-modular category

I am following Pavel Etingof et al's book on tensor categories. In order to get used to the $S$-matrix of a pre-modular category and related concepts, I am trying to prove the following simple fact:



The elements $s_{XY}$ of the $S$-matrix satisfy:



$forall A,Bin mathcal O(mathcal C), s_{A^*B^*}=s_{AB}$



I tried to play around with the definitions:



$
s_{AB}=text{Tr}(b_{BA}b_{AB}) := text{Tr}^L(psi_{Aotimes B}b_{BA}b_{AB}):=ev_{(Aotimes
B)^*}circ (psi_{Aotimes B}b_{BA}b_{AB})otimes id_{(Aotimes B)^*} circ coev_{Aotimes B}
$



$
s_{A^*B^*}=text{Tr}(b_{B^*A^*}b_{A^*B^*}) := text{Tr}^R(b_{B^*A^*}b_{A^*B^*}psi^{-1}_{A^*otimes B^*}):=ev_{(A^*otimes B^*)^{veevee}}circ id_{(A^*otimes B^*)^vee}otimes (b_{B^*A^*}b_{A^*B^*}psi^{-1}_{A^*otimes B^*}) circ coev_{(A^*otimes B^*)^vee}
$



But got nowhere.
Notation: $X^vee$ is the right dual of $X$.
