Winter Kim only has three rules in life: avoid all distractions, steer clear of tequila, and never mix business with pleasure. Her friends like to say she leads a stringent lifestyle, but she prefers to call it her secret recipe to success. Understandably so, though, it's what led her to the top of Forbes 30 Under 30 for two consecutive years and a fortune she could proudly call her own. However, as her company gears up for expansion, Winter breaks not only one but two of her sacred rules when she comes face to face with an old lover-beloved architect and heartthrob of the century, Karina Yu.

It all started with a favor. Yvonne-idol, trendsetter, and maybe the only person Wynston Lauren ever actually listens to-needed dancers for her comeback stage. Wynston, bored out of her mind in her family's Hacienda and desperate for a reason to escape the walls of her legacy, agreed to help. One audition. That's all it was supposed to be. But then came Katarina. Katarina Sarmiento, street-trained, fire-eyed, and too sharp for her own good. She didn't flinch at Wynston's last name, didn't care for her designer shoes, and definitely didn't ask for permission to speak her mind. Their first meeting was a disaster. One glare, one sideways comment, and the air between them turned electric in all the worst ways. Wynston didn't apologize. Katarina didn't back down. And somehow, neither of them could look away. Now, with Katarina on the official dance team and Wynston lingering around the studio "for moral support" (according to Yvonne), things only get messier. They bicker, they clash, and they can't seem to be in the same room without someone throwing a look or a line too sharp to ignore. But Yvonne knows better. And when she sets up a quiet dinner between the two-under the guise of team bonding-their usual verbal sparring takes a different turn. Softer. Quieter. Still awkward, still tense... but maybe a little less angry. Now something unspoken sits between them. And no one knows what it is. Not Naomi, not Gabriella, not even Wynston herself. But the glances are different. The silence stretches longer. And suddenly, the girls who were supposed to be background characters in each other's lives start lingering in ways that feel harder to brush off. Katarina was never supposed to matter. Wynston was never supposed to stay. But the studio had other plans.

Yu Karina is a wealthy, independent woman - driven by a single obsession: avenging her sister. A suicide? She never believed it. Alongside her brother Kai, she investigates, digs through silence and lies, until an undeniable truth emerges: the agency where her sister worked pushed her to take her own life. Soon, one name rises above all others, heavy and threatening: Kim Duho, the agency's CEO. From that moment on, the path is set. The Yu siblings are ready for anything. Even to kill. But nothing will go according to plan. Too many variables slip beyond their control. Too many unstable elements begin to fracture a meticulously crafted revenge. And among them, one presence changes everything: Kim Winter. She embodies everything the Yu family despises - the cold, blood, winter, snow. And yet, she now stands at the very center of their fate. Because revenge is never an isolated act. It consumes, it distorts, and it never spares those who dare to begin it.

Jimin Yu has everything: wealth, flawless appearances, glittering nights, and a life polished like a gilded portrait. But behind the marble walls, her family is nothing but ruins-coldness, pressure, secrets, and an inheritance that weighs heavier than a prison. Minjeong Kim lives the exact opposite: a simple life, too simple, almost suffocating. Between school, part-time jobs, and a past that refuses to heal, she doesn't have the luxury to dream... let alone waste time on a girl like Jimin. They should never have crossed paths. They should never have liked each other. And yet. When a declined invitation, a forgotten coffee, and a few misunderstood words make them collide head-on, everything spirals: resentment, attraction, clumsy mistakes, misunderstandings... and that dangerous urge to move toward the other despite everything. As their families crumble, as mysterious figures rise from the shadows, and as the truths they tried to outrun crash back into them, Jimin and Minjeong are left with no choice: face the world, or face themselves. Love, secrets, betrayal, and invisible wounds. Two girls who have nothing in common. Two destinies that intertwine when everything should tear them apart. And what if their encounter was only the beginning of a much darker story than they ever imagined?

Karina is at the top of the music world, and while she appears to have it all, she's missing the one thing she truly needs. But then, at an exclusive fashion show, she meets the woman who can give her the love she craves so badly... Winter.

A platonic love story between a new rising athlete of Korea's Badminton Association and their sport medicine doctor.

In a world where debts are paid in flesh, silence is the most valuable currency. When her father's fatal mistake brings the devastatingly powerful Yu Family to her doorstep, the quiet, introverted Kim Minjeong watches her world end in a single, bloody breath. Spared from the slaughter not out of mercy, but out of cold calculation, she is taken as living collateral by the heiress, Yu Jimin (Karina). Dragged into a glittering world of opulence and violence, Minjeong must navigate a gilded cage where one wrong word could mean death, and where her captor's chilling interest in her may be her only path to survival.

Karina was already falling before Winter even looked her way. Winter builds walls faster than she lets people in. They say love is about meeting halfway but what if one of you runs, and the other walks? A slow, messy love story about patience, timing, and finding each other at the right speed. (All chapters will be read from Jimin's pov, but in some chapters you happen to read from Minjeong's pov.)

And when Karina wants something, she doesn't ask. She takes. But someone-no, someTHING starts walking on Ae University's hallways.
