Six months of silence. Twenty-four weeks of survival.
Seo Changbin thinks he's doing it on his own. Between 2:00 AM wake-up calls for his twins and grueling studio hours with Chan and Jisung, his ego is the only thing keeping him from a breaking point. He doesn't need help, and he certainly doesn't need a stranger in his kitchen.
But his friends-a "village" of producers, dancers, and doctors-see the truth.
Through a desperate intervention led by Wooyoung and San, Hwang Hyunjin arrives. To Changbin, he's an intruder. To the twins, he's an immediate exception to their "no strangers" rule.
What Changbin doesn't know is that Hyunjin and his brother, Jeongin, have survived a silence far heavier than his own. Only Minho knows their secret, and he's the only one brave enough to tell Changbin the truth: that sometimes, the person you're pushing away is the only one who knows how to save you.
A story of healing, hidden ghosts, and the family we choose when the one we had falls apart
