At Cheongdam High, reputation is everything. The wealthy rule the halls, rumors spread faster than truth, and scholarship students learn quickly what it means to survive under people born with power. Kim Seungmin never cared much about school politics--until Ahn Ma-ri became the center of a cruel rumor that changed everything. What begins as a simple act of standing by her side slowly spirals into something far more dangerous: broken friendships, buried guilt, violence disguised as silence, and wounds that refuse to stay in the past. Years later, the two meet again under entirely different circumstances. But some misunderstandings don't disappear with time. And some people never realize they've become the very thing they once hated. A story about grief, class divide, trauma, love, and the devastating consequences of believing the wrong version of the truth. ── ⋆⋅𖤓⋅⋆ ── Update will be 3-4 days until I finished my other book - Exile ── ⋆⋅𖤓⋅⋆ ──

"Can someone still deserve love after the world turns against them?" ───※ ·❆· ※─── When a career ending controversy erupts against Kim Seungmin, the Korean entertainment industry turns its back on him. To protect Stray Kids, he chooses to step away, leaving the group to continue as seven. Far from the noise and flashing headlines, he rebuilds his life in Ireland-trading stage lights for steel structures and corporate silence. There, in a place where his name means nothing, he meets a colleague who quietly becomes the reason his exile feels less like punishment... and more like staying. ❀⊱┄┄┄·········⋆𓆩❀𓆪⋆········┄┄┄⊰❀ ᴛʜɪꜱ ꜱᴛᴏʀʏ ɪꜱ ᴀʙᴏᴜᴛ ᴛᴡᴏ ᴘᴇᴏᴘʟᴇ ᴍᴇᴛ ᴅᴜʀɪɴɢ ᴛʜᴇ ᴡᴏʀꜱᴛ ᴘᴇʀɪᴏᴅ ᴏꜰ ꜱᴏᴍᴇᴏɴᴇ'ꜱ ʟɪꜰᴇ, ᴀɴᴅ ʙᴇᴄᴀᴍᴇ ᴇᴀᴄʜ ᴏᴛʜᴇʀ'ꜱ ꜱᴀꜰᴇ ᴘʟᴀᴄᴇ. ꜰɪɴᴅɪɴɢ ꜱᴏᴍᴇᴏɴᴇ ᴡʜᴏ ꜱᴛɪʟʟ ꜱᴇᴇꜱ ʏᴏᴜʀ ʜᴜᴍᴀɴɪᴛʏ ᴀꜰᴛᴇʀ ᴛʜᴇ ᴡᴏʀʟᴅ ʀᴇᴅᴜᴄᴇꜱ ʏᴏᴜ ᴛᴏ ᴀ ꜱᴄᴀɴᴅᴀʟ ᴛʀʏɪɴɢ ᴛᴏ ʜᴏʟᴅ ᴏɴᴛᴏ ᴇᴀᴄʜ ᴏᴛʜᴇʀ ᴡʜɪʟᴇ ʟᴀʀɢᴇʀ ꜱʏꜱᴛᴇᴍꜱ ᴋᴇᴇᴘ ᴘᴜʟʟɪɴɢ ʏᴏᴜ ᴀᴘᴀʀᴛ. ┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈ No.7 #company - 2/21/2026 No.3 #disappearance - 2/21/2026 No.2 #controversial - 2/21/2026 No.2 #corporate - 2/23/2026 No.2 #skz - 2/23/2026 No.3 #company - 2/24/2026 No.1 #controversial - 2/24/2026 No. 2 #company - 2/27/2026 No.5 #kpopidols - 2/27/2026 No.1 #corporate - 2/27/2026 No.1 #company - 3/4/2026 No. 1 #jeongin - 3/27/2026 No. 2 #changbin - 3/28/2026 No. 2 #hyunjin - 4/1/2026 No. 1 #skz - 4/4/2026 No. 1 #idol - 4/4/2026 No. 1 #changbin - 5/6/2026 No. 1 #kpopidols - 5/14/2026
