|COMPLETED| For as long as she could remember, Kang Haeun's world revolved solely around the Choi family. Her father was Mr. Choi's personal driver while her mother was Mrs. Choi's assistant. Even after her parents (and unfortunately the Choi's) untimely death when she was fifteen, Haeun continued to live at their state and eventually became the personal secretary of Chairman Choi, the patriarch of the family. However, the Choi she cherished the most in her life was the Chairman's grandson, Seungcheol. What started as an innocent crush soon turned into years of one sided love. In Haeun's eyes, Choi Seungcheol could do no wrong. Meanwhile, Seungcheol saw Haeun as nothing but 'the help'. When the Chairman passes away and a surprising clause in his will states that Seungcheol must marry Haeun if he wants to secure his position as the rightful heir of his grandfather's empire, they are left with no other choice but to comply to the old man's last wish. While Haeun sees this unexpected turn of events as her only chance to care for and love Seungcheol like she always dreamed of, her new husband is hell bent on making her regret every single day of their ill fated union. If Seungcheol had paid a little more attention, he would've realized that, in the end, the only one left with any regrets would be him.

Jeonghan has always lived life on his own terms-spoiled, mischievous, and used to getting what he wants. As the beloved Heir of Yoons, he thrives in the nightlife, surrounded by luxury, attention, and the unwavering support of his equally chaotic friends. Seungcheol is disciplined, composed, and strictly business. He doesn't have time for distractions, let alone a spoiled brat like Jeonghan, who seems to enjoy testing his limits. As their worlds collide, Jeonghan finds himself drawn to the man who refuses to bend to his whims, while Seungcheol struggles to resist the undeniable pull of the one person who manages to turn his world upside down.

Mingyu, the charismatic member of Seventeen, and Hwa-young, a talented rising actress, lead lives filled with applause and admiration. Despite their success, both yearn for something more meaningful. When fate intertwines their worlds, they embark on a slow-burning journey of friendship and unexpected emotions. As they navigate the highs and lows of their demanding careers, they must decide if they can step out from behind the spotlight and allow a deeper connection to flourish. Behind the Spotlight is a heart-warming tale of two stars finding their way to each other amidst the chaos of fame.

Heejin Kang is the model student-class president, top grades, zero tolerance for nonsense. Mingyu Kim is the reckless new transfer-charming, lazy, and completely allergic to rules. The only thing they have in common? Detention. Every. Single. Week. She wants him out of her school. He just wants to get under her skin. But when forced to spend hours together after class, insults turn into conversations, glares turn into stolen glances-and something neither of them expected starts to bloom. Because sometimes... Love doesn't knock. It barges in during detention, steals your snack, and refuses to leave.

Yoon Jeonghan never asked for a forced marriage. Cold, distant, and guarded, he had always believed love was a weakness. But when he's bound by duty to marry Ryu Dain, a woman he barely knows, everything changes. They keep their distance at first, each one struggling with their own fears and doubts. But as time passes, something unexpected happens-they begin to fall for each other. However, just when they start to understand the depth of their connection, Jeonghan's past comes crashing back into their lives. His ex, the woman he thought he had left behind, reappears, threatening everything they've built. Will Jeonghan and Dain's love survive the storm of old wounds, secrets, and unexpected obstacles? Or will their past tear them apart when they need each other the most?

Han Jiwoo lives by one rule: keep it professional. Sharp, ambitious, and respected in Seoul's top marketing firm, she's worked too hard to let anyone-especially a smug, smooth-talking creative lead-get in her way. Enter Choi Seungcheol: freshly transferred from New York, maddeningly charming, and irritatingly brilliant. When they're forced to co-lead the company's biggest campaign yet, sparks fly-and not the good kind. Emails turn snarky. Meetings become battlegrounds. And late nights at the office? Way too charged for comfort. But as deadlines draw near and walls start to crumble, they find themselves tangled in something much more dangerous than workplace rivalry: undeniable chemistry. She's ice. He's fire. And in the high-stakes world of business and ambition, falling in love might just be the most unprofessional thing they could do.
