Staged dates, scripted moments, carefully timed posts. No real feelings. No crossing the line. But between forced smiles, late-night practices, and one drunken confession that wasn't meant for the cameras, the line between pretend and real begins to blur - even though falling in love was the one thing clearly forbidden in their contract.

But everyone hides for a reason. And when the truth behind her anonymity begins to surface, Hyunjin realizes some shadows exist to protect the things that hurt the most.
