A story of a love that was almost a decade in the making. In the summer of 2016, a fleeting connection was formed between two young women, Yoo Jaeyi and Woo Seulgi, only to be cut short by circumstance. Nine years later, they are brought together again. Jaeyi is now a CEO, bound by a marriage of convenience, while Seulgi is trying to make her way in the world. Convinced that Seulgi is struggling, Jaeyi offers her a job as her personal assistant, hoping to finally get close to her again. As they work together, the lingering feelings of their past summer romance begin to resurface, blurring the lines between their professional relationship and the personal history they share. Jaeyi grapples with the facade of her life, and with the growing realization that the woman she's falling for again may not be who she seems.

Jaeyi is the CEO of a well-know agency. Cold, smart and manipulative, she succeed to prove her father her worth. She got married, had a daughter and a successful career, everything that Taejoon planned for her worked. Expect at two points. Her divorce. Her signing a contract with her daughter's favorite actress, Woo Seulgi.

Prologue In a world still spinning from the aftermath of a celestial anomaly-the Arcane Comet-some teenagers began to change. Not all, just a few. Chosen by fate or cursed by chance, they awoke to find themselves holding pieces of the impossible. Powers. Secrets. A ticking clock inside their skin. Yoo Jaeyi was one of them. A sharp-tongued university student with a penchant for trouble and a gift no one was supposed to have-she could bend others to her will, if only for a short while. A flicker of control. A taste of power. And like anyone armed with something dangerous, she tried to use it to her advantage. Cheat sheets. Party invites. A shortcut through life. But freedom has a price. And someone was watching. Woo Seulgi saw through her. A ghost in plain sight, Seulgi walked the world invisible to everyone-everyone except Jaeyi. Their encounter wasn't a coincidence. It was the beginning. Together, they were dragged into the underbelly of the extraordinary: Chaehwa University-a hidden institution posing as an elite school, masking its true purpose. It trained the gifted. Protected them. Controlled them. And sometimes, used them. This story is not about heroes. It is about the ones who didn't ask for this. It is about Yoo Jaeyi and Woo Seulgi-two girls trying to outrun fate, trying to protect others like them, and trying, just maybe, to save each other. Welcome to Arcane.

When Woo Seulgi, a spirited and delightfully messy 23-year-old fresh out of university, arrives in Seoul, she's hoping for a fresh start. What she gets instead is Yoo Jaeyi, her meticulously organized and seemingly icy 25-year-old nurse roommate. Their shared apartment, meant to be a sanctuary, quickly becomes a battleground of passive-aggressive notes, clashing personalities, and the furry, chaotic presence of Seulgi's secret weapon: Boksil, her mischievous Maltese. Seulgi, despite her loud exterior, harbors a hidden truth-a fierce attraction to women she's desperately trying to conceal behind. Jaeyi, outwardly composed and mature, secretly battles her own inner demons, including a possessive streak she keeps carefully hidden. Both women, commoners from the provinces, are stretched thin by the demands of their low-paying jobs and the financial burdens of supporting their families-Seulgi's younger brother, Jihun (20), and Jaeyi's parents and younger sister, Eunbi (18). Their initial hatred reaches a peak after Boksil's innocent destruction of a prized possession. But forced proximity and shared struggles begin to chip away at their defenses. As their carefully constructed facades crumble, they discover a common ground in their relentless pursuit of stability and their deep love for their families. The subtle shift from bitter rivals to hesitant friends, and then to something undeniably romantic, is a journey of quiet glances, lingering touches, and a growing understanding that transcends their initial animosity. Kiss The Girl:Next Door is a heartwarming tale of two women bound by circumstance, who find unexpected love amidst the chaos of adulting, financial strain, and the noisy presence of a small, fluffy dog. Can their blossoming affection survive their clashing worlds and the secrets they both carry?
