On the first day of the new year, Zhou Anxin and Lee Sangwon meet in the sterile halls of a hospital. Anxin has long sworn off love, convinced it only leads to pain. Sangwon, on the other hand, carries a quiet strength even in the face of his own struggles. What begins as a chance encounter slowly grows into a bond that neither of them expected. Between shared glances in waiting rooms, quiet conversations in corridors, and the fragile comfort of friendship, they find themselves drawn into each other's worlds. Over the course of a year, the hospital becomes the backdrop of their story - a place of fragility, resilience, and the rare kind of connection that feels almost magical. For Anxin, every moment with Sangwon feels like a reminder that some meetings are destined, no matter how brief or uncertain. Enchanted by one another, they discover that even in the most unlikely places, love has a way of finding you.

Sangwon loves everything he has. An artist who's never been in love before, he pours his whole heart into Anxin-the quiet, grounded med student who stole his world without even trying. But while Sangwon gives too much, Anxin gives too little-or so it seems. To Anxin, love isn't about flowers, cheesy words, or dramatic gestures. He thinks all of that is corny, embarrassing, even suffocating. He loves quietly, in ways that don't shine but are always there. When two hearts love so differently, can they really meet in the middle? Or will one drown while the other stays silent? A story about love languages, misunderstandings, and the thin line between too much and not enough.

Eight trainees chasing the same dream. Under blinding lights and suffocating pressure, only one can rise to the top. Sangwon has the experience, the stage presence, and the looks of a leader-but behind his confidence hides the fear of being forgotten. Anxin, younger and less noticed, carries a quiet fire no one expects until he steps on stage. Thrown together in unexpected ways, their paths keep crossing-on stage, in practice rooms, and even in late-night conversations under the stars. What begins as awkward silence slowly turns into a bond they can't ignore. But in a world where votes decide fates and friendships blur into rivalries, can their connection survive the price of becoming idols?

They can't stand each other. Literally. Lee Sangwon is sharp, meticulous, and thrives on control. Zhou Anxin is impulsive, unpredictable, and loves breaking every rule Sangwon lives by. When they meet at the same company, sparks fly-and not the good kind. Every meeting is a battlefield. Every interaction, a clash of egos. Anxin rolls his eyes at everything Sangwon says. Sangwon finds Anxin infuriating in every possible way. Yet, inexplicably, every accidental touch, every late-night collaboration, every heated argument ignites something neither wants to admit. Hate feels easy. Desire? Impossible to ignore. As their rivalry intensifies, so does the magnetic pull between them. They hate it. They hate each other. But they hate being apart even more. And soon, the line between hate and love becomes blurred... dangerously blurred.

Zhou Anxin never planned to fall this hard. For weeks, he's been quietly building a world where Lee Sangwon is the centre of everything-every late-night playlist, every scribbled note in his journal, every small detail carefully thought out to make Sangwon feel special. So when he decides to throw a celebration just for him-a night filled with music, lights, and warmth-it isn't just about a party. It's Anxin's way of saying the words he could never speak out loud. But as the hours slip by and the door stays closed, reality sinks in. The balloons lose their shine, the laughter feels hollow, and the truth presses heavily on his chest: Sangwon isn't coming. Through Anxin's eyes, the night becomes a haunting reflection of love unreturned-how much of yourself you can give away before realising no one is reaching back. Yet even in the silence, he forces himself to keep going, dancing with shadows and memories, pretending it's enough to "party on you," even when the person he wanted most will never be there.
