Ryujin and Yeji are ITZY members based in Seoul, South Korea. Yeji has a boyfriend, Hyunjin, who is head over heels for her. It is a private relationship because the company doesn't allow dating. Ryujin never liked Yeji romantically until recently. However she knows she could never had Yeji so she settles on being her best friend, loving her from a distance. Although, the more and more Ryujin pulls away, Yeji finds herself chasing after her. Will Yeji give into her feelings? Will it be too late? Will they even last?

Five years into their journey as ITZY, Shin Ryujin and Hwang Yeji share a bond built on comfort, trust, and countless quiet moments the world never sees. What begins as an ordinary day off slowly unfolds into something more-late-night conversations, familiar warmth, and feelings long buried beneath professionalism and distance. As Ryujin's lifelong crush on Yeji quietly lingers and Yeji struggles with the space she created to protect them both, their carefully balanced friendship is tested by timing, unspoken emotions, and the pressure of being watched. When Ryujin's long-held dream of becoming an actress finally comes true through a role that mirrors her own reality, the line between fiction and truth begins to blur. A soft, emotional slow-burn about longing, missed chances, and the courage it takes to face feelings that were never meant to be hidden forever.

In the glittering world of Korean chaebol families, Shin Ryujin-rebellious heir to Shin Media-faces an arranged marriage to secure a powerful alliance with Hwang Tech. Furious at being treated like a business asset, especially after a painful recent breakup, Ryujin reluctantly agrees to one meeting with her intended: Hwang Yeji, the poised and elegant heiress who appears every bit the perfect corporate princess. Defying expectations and her father's orders for formality, Ryujin shows up in casual streetwear, determined to test Yeji's true nature. To her surprise, Yeji isn't cold or arrogant-she's warm, genuine, and refreshingly open to ditching protocol for a "normal" outing to the mall, complete with greasy street food and playful banter over snacks. As the two heirs from rival empires share laughs and honest conversations in Seoul traffic, what begins as a forced corporate merger sparks unexpected chemistry. Ryujin's guarded heart starts to thaw, while Yeji reveals a side far removed from boardroom ice. Amid family pressures, past heartbreaks, and the weight of legacy, this unlikely first date hints that their arranged union might become something real-and dangerously irresistible.
