When she sees an opening for a photographer at Kim Corporation, the country's most prestigious company, Lisa decides to take a chance.

Jennie is known for her perfectionism, strict standards, and emotional distance. She built her empire through hard work and trusts very few people. The last thing she needs is a struggling photographer disrupting her carefully controlled life. In a world divided by wealth, status, and painful pasts, can love truly develop through her lens? LISA GIP

Enemies with benefits

After Jennie Kim and Kim Taehyung went public, the world called it a love story. But for Lalisa Manoban- it felt like the beginning of something she was never meant to lose... and never allowed to keep.

Power rules everything. Two dynasties at war. Jennie Kim lives in a cage. Lisa Manoban was raised to destroy. They were never meant to meet. They were never meant to love.

Jennie Kim has lived her life by the rules - good grades, good manners, and a boyfriend who's never given her a reason to doubt him. But everything changes when she transfers to Silvergate University and crosses paths with Lisa Manoban. Rich. Untouchable. Unapologetically bad. The daughter of the school's Chairman, Lisa does what she wants and who she wants. She doesn't do love. Until Jennie. What starts as curiosity becomes obsession. But Jennie isn't the type of girl Lisa can just ruin and walk away from. She's the girl who might destroy her back.

The only heiress of the Kim empire, she lives a life of luxury, power, and privilege. She's got it all-unmatched wealth, loving parents, loyal ride-or-die besties, and a reputation that makes her name echo through every hallway in school. Known for her sharp tongue, cold stare, and untouchable aura, Jennie's infamous attitude is just the armor she wears to protect a heart that's more fragile than anyone would guess. Only those she trusts ever get to see the girl behind the glare, the goofy, loyal, secretly soft Jennie Kim. She's the queen of chaos. The heiress everyone fears. Untouchable, unstoppable-until a clumsy, no-name girl crashes into her world... literally. What happens when Jennie Kim-the sassiest, most savage heiress in Seoul, gets spaghetti on her designer uniform and attitude thrown back in her face by a broke scholarship student with nothing to lose? Lines will be crossed. Egos will clash. And sparks? Oh, they'll fly-whether they like it or not. This isn't your typical enemies-to-lovers tale. This is war in stilettos vs. sneakers. Power meets pride. Jennie vs. Lisa. And only one can stay on top... unless they fall... hard for each other first.

The night Seoul crowned its newest fashion queen was also the night two hearts broke without warning. Inside the penthouse suite of K-House, the city glittered beneath Jennie Kim's heels. her smile precise - everything about her immaculate except the tremor in her voice when she whispered, "Tell me it's not true." Lisa didn't answer. She stood by the window, shoulders soaked from the rain, eyes carrying a kind of silence that begged to be believed. "It wasn't what you think," she said finally, low and breaking. "Jennie, please-" "Don't." Jennie's voice cut through the room like a blade. "You think I'll stand here and pretend you didn't lie to me? That you didn't use me to get ahead?" Lisa's jaw clenched. "You really think so little of me." "I think exactly what you showed me." Jennie's words were cruel, but her fingers trembled as they gripped the wine glass. "You disappeared in the middle of my show, Lisa. You knew how much tonight meant. And you were with her." Lisa stepped forward. "She's a client, Jennie! I told you-" "Enough!" The glass shattered against the floor. Wine bled into the marble like spilled blood. Lisa froze. For a heartbeat, there was only the sound of rain and Jennie's ragged breathing. Then came the whisper, soft but fatal: "Leave. Tonight. I don't want to see you again." Lisa's throat closed. "You don't mean that." Jennie met her eyes - the same eyes she'd once kissed beneath studio lights, the same eyes she used to call home - and said it anyway. "I do." For a moment, neither moved. Then Lisa picked up her coat, silent tears caught in the reflection of the window, and walked toward the door. She stopped once, hand on the handle. "If I leave now," she said, "I won't come back." Jennie didn't answer. Pride was louder than love. The door closed. ⸻ Seven years later, she'll see those eyes again. And everything she buried will rise to the surface.
