Before the fame and the headlines, JL Gaspar and Steven shared a fiery night of lust and anonymity. Two years later, they're forced to work together as labelmates under the same music company, their past still simmering between them. With no room for mistakes, only growing tension, they must navigate their rivalry-and the unspoken desire that refuses to fade. This is their Second Act, and it's just beginning.

Eight friends escape to a secluded mountain villa for what should be a relaxing retreat. But isolation turns dangerous when hidden secrets, buried betrayals, and an uninvited presence start to unravel their trust-and their lives. As love deepens and suspicion grows, surviving means choosing between the truth and the people they care about most.

JL used to love writing-his words once painted entire worlds, his stories touched hearts, and his books had dedicated readers. But somewhere along the way, he lost it. The passion, the excitement, the spark. Now, he stares at blank pages, wondering if he'll ever write again. Chih En, on the other hand, has always found comfort in words-especially JL's. He's been a quiet admirer of L. J., the author whose books spoke to him in ways nothing else did. But when L. J. suddenly goes silent, Chih En wonders what happened to the writer whose words once felt so alive. Their paths cross unexpectedly at a quiet bookstore café. JL, lost and unsure, doesn't expect anyone to notice his struggles. But Chih En does. And as the two grow closer, JL's circle-Woongki, Zenzen, Hanseo, and Steven-slowly start noticing the change in him. At the same time, Chih En's friends-Han, Daisuke, Juwon, and Kyungho-begin to tease him about the way he talks about JL. Through late-night conversations, stolen glances over coffee, and the quiet understanding of two people who need each other more than they realize, JL and Chih En discover that some stories aren't meant to be written alone. And maybe, just maybe-JL's story is still worth telling. A slow-burn comfort story about finding inspiration, healing through connection, and the love that quietly sneaks up on you when you least expect it.
