To the world, they are SM Entertainment's golden duo. Y/n is a globally renowned solo artist and Hollywood actor, a charismatic superstar who conquered the industry at a young age. Yoo Jimin-known to millions as Karina, the untouchable center of aespa-is his ultimate grounding force. Since their grueling days as trainees in 2016, they have been inseparable. To the fans, the executives, and the media, their bond is the ultimate, unbreakable platonic friendship. But for eight years, Jimin has carried a devastating secret. She has been entirely, hopelessly in love with him since she was sixteen years old. Trapped in the agonizing role of the "reliable best friend," Jimin has spent her entire youth standing in his shadow. She smiles for the cameras when he is linked to beautiful actresses, offers her shoulder when the pressures of fame become too heavy, and silently bleeds out in the background, terrified that confessing her true feelings will destroy the most important relationship in her life. She is perfectly resolved to suffer in silence if it means she gets to keep him. To Y/n, completely oblivious to the war being fought right beside him, Jimin is simply his anchor. She is his safe harbor in an industry designed to tear people apart. He relies on her with a fierce, protective devotion that he fundamentally misunderstands, entirely blind to the fact that his casual affection is slowly breaking her heart. But the middle ground is a dangerous place to live. When a high-profile Hollywood PR stunt pushes Jimin to her absolute breaking point, she makes the desperate decision to pull away and save herself. As the distance between them grows and the foundation of his life begins to crack, the oblivious golden boy is finally forced to open his eyes. And when he does, a decade of carefully constructed lies threatens to unravel completely. ***THIS STORY IS PROOFREAD AND GRAMMARLY CORRECTED BY AI*** ***BUT ALL IDEAS AND BASE TEXT IS MADE BY HUMAN BRAINS LOL***

When South Korea's most acclaimed young actor, Y/N, and the nation's top idol, aespa's Karina, are cast as co-leads in a massive tvN prestige romance drama, the internet collectively loses its mind. To the public, it's a brilliant crossover pairing guaranteed to sweep the ratings. To the production crew, their on-screen chemistry is so intense and visceral that it feels entirely unscripted. But when the cameras stop rolling, the temperature on set drops to absolute zero. What the public, the paparazzi, and their own friends don't know is that Y/N and Yoo Jimin share a deeply buried history. Eight years ago, they were inseparable best friends in the quiet suburbs of Bundang-until a single, panicked phone call on the eve of her SM Entertainment audition destroyed everything. He said something unforgivable. She built an empire out of spite. They haven't spoken a single word to each other since. Now, trapped in a relentless filming schedule that demands whispered confessions, longing gazes, and romantic blocking, they are forced to confront the wreckage of their past. As the undeniable tension between them begins to blur the line between performance and reality, Y/N must figure out how to apologize to a woman who refuses to look at him, and Karina must decide if her eight-year grudge is a shield protecting her heart-or the only thing keeping her from the one person who truly knows her. They say they have no chemistry. But lying to the cameras is easy; lying to themselves might be impossible.

It started with a ruined coat and a spilled Americano. It continued in the quiet aisles of a 24-hour convenience store. But it was a church that kept them close. ​Y/N is a stranger in Seoul seeking a home. Karina is a star seeking a place to breathe. Week after week, in the dim light of the sanctuary, they share the weight of their existence. ​Can a quiet love born in silence survive the brutal noise of show business, or are they destined to remain strangers from different worlds?

Kim Y/N has spent most of his life avoiding the spotlight. While his older sister built a career on some of Korea's biggest stages, he found comfort in university lectures, quiet cafés, and a routine that rarely changed. Until she decided enough was enough. Without asking, Chaewon signs him up for a six-month documentary project that places one ordinary university student inside the daily life of one of Korea's biggest girl groups: IVE. His job sounds simple. Live with them. Experience what happens behind the cameras. Don't get in the way. What no one knows-not even IVE-is that he's Kim Chaewon's younger brother. As friendships grow, walls slowly disappear, and one unexpected connection begins to change everything, Y/N discovers that some of life's biggest moments happen when no one is watching. And maybe... The place he was trying so hard to avoid is exactly where he was meant to be.

Y/N a rising prodigy in the football world who dreamt of being one of the best. His life somehow got interesting as aespa starts to get involved in it.

When Ningning, the main vocal of aespa, finds solace from the crushing pressures of fame in Y/N's unassuming cafe, a sweet connection blossoms over flour-dusted counters and secret midnight strolls.

A nostalgic and heartwarming journey through the eyes of Aeri (Giselle), exploring the deeply personal bond between a global icon and the person who has been her silent anchor.

After clinching the F2 title, Y/N steps into the world of Formula 1 as part of Cadillac Racing, a bold new American entry aiming to shake up the grid. Between learning from veteran teammate Valtteri Bottas, dodging relentless media attention, and a fateful encounter with a member of aespa, Y/N soon discovers that life in F1 isn't just about chasing podiums - it's about managing speed, spotlight, and unexpected feelings.

A chance encounter on a rain-slicked rooftop leads to a "beautiful mistake" between a global icon and a man living on borrowed time.

Some threats are meant to scare people. Others are meant to send a message. After a series of anonymous bomb threats begin targeting major K-pop events across South Korea, the government quietly launches a covert operation to prevent public panic before the industry collapses into fear. Y/N, a bomb disposal specialist known for his cold precision and silence under pressure, is assigned undercover inside SM Entertainment as a technical risk consultant. His mission is simple: protect aespa, identify the source of the threats, and stop the next attack before thousands die. But inside the exhausting cycle of rehearsals, sold-out arenas, flashing cameras, and sleepless nights, the operation becomes far more complicated than expected. Especially when Karina starts noticing things no one else does. The way he memorizes exits before entering rooms. The way he watches crowds instead of performances. The way he never looks relieved after surviving. And somewhere between near-misses, late-night rehearsals, and the quiet moments neither of them were supposed to keep, the distance between protector and protected slowly begins to disappear. As the threats grow closer to becoming real attacks, the line between duty and attachment begins to blur. And while Seoul prepares for its biggest year-end festival, someone behind the scenes seems determined to turn every step of the investigation into a countdown. In a world built on performance, survival might be the most dangerous role of all.
