She wasn't looking for an escape. Until it found her. When Laura, a guarded Vogue writer from Paris, lands the rare chance to interview South Korea's most elusive actor, Gong Yoo, she doesn't expect it to feel like fate. What begins as a professional encounter soon turns into a deeper connection. They discover that there is something pulling them together; loneliness, fear, and the desire to be seen and heard. One day, she receives something she never expected: an invitation that pulls her halfway across the world. But under the glare of the public eye, desire becomes dangerous, and falling in love means learning to trust where it hurts the most. Set between the moody streets of Paris and the neon alleys of Seoul, this is a story of connection, longing, and a love that asks more questions than it answers. **Trigger warning: this story contains adult content, as well as themes of pregnancy and loss.**
