soulmate!au Geum Seongje has never cared about destiny or the idea of soulmates. The countdown that was etched on his wrist has always been an empty concept, a distant number he never trusted to define his life. He believes in decisions, not fate, and keeps his emotions carefully restrained, never believing in love. But everything changes the first time he meets Hwang Miyeon. Without warning, the countdown he ignored all his life comes to a sudden stop. Time falls silent, leaving him with a truth he does not understand and refuses to accept. Rather than seeing it as destiny, Seongje treats it as an interruption, something that must be observed, questioned, and controlled. Not long after, their engagement is announced. To the world, it appears to be a natural result of family expectations and tradition. Seongje remains himself, offering no sign that anything has truly changed. Miyeon steps into the role of his fiancée with uncertainty, her smile hiding doubts she cannot silence. But unlike Seongje, her countdown continues to move forward. Each passing second reminds her that time has probably not chosen him as her soulmate. She stands beside a man whose fate seems certain, while her own remains unresolved. Bound together by circumstance and expectation, they walk a path shaped by unspoken reasons and unanswered questions. Seongje carries a certainty he never wanted to believe in, while Miyeon carries the seconds of waiting. In a world where time decides love, their story unfolds between control and destiny, asking whether a soulmate is something granted by fate, or something claimed before time has the chance to decide. or In which Geum Seongje reached the end of his countdown upon meeting Hwang Miyeon, while hers continued without pause. started: 15.12.25 finished: -
