He only wanted to escape reality for a few hours.
Instead, he woke up inside the novel that had become his entire world.
Kim Seungmin is an exhausted corporate employee whose life has become an endless cycle of deadlines, overtime, and cold coffee. The only thing that gives him peace is his favorite novel, The Fall of Gauneun-a dark historical fantasy about the powerful Ganeun Dynasty and seven men whose lives are destined to collide with war, betrayal, ambition, and tragedy.
Seungmin has always hated the novel's ending.
The seven men survive, but their futures are left broken and uncertain.
One night, while reading beneath a sky filled with shooting stars, Seungmin makes a careless wish.
He wishes he could enter the novel.
He wishes he could meet them.
He wishes he could change their fate.
The next morning, he wakes up somewhere impossible.
A palace.
Ancient clothes.
A strange world.
And a glowing system calling him-
Master.
Seungmin soon discovers the horrifying truth:
He isn't merely inside the novel.
He's the protagonist.
And the system has given him one mission:
Make the Seven Destined Men successful enough to change the fate of the Ganeun Dynasty.
Simple, right?
Absolutely not.
Because the seven men aren't the characters Seungmin remembers from the pages anymore.
They're real.
They have their own secrets.
Their own ambitions.
Their own scars.
And each of them becomes increasingly interested in the mysterious Master who seems to know far too much about them.
At first, Seungmin believes he's simply guiding their destinies.
But the closer he gets to them, the more complicated everything becomes.
Trust turns into attachment.
Attachment turns into longing.
And feelings begin crossing boundaries Seungmin never intended to cross.
The seven men were supposed to become the most powerful figures in the dynasty.
Instead, they begin wanting something-or someone-far more personal.
Their Master.
