After the tragic accident, she lost her voice and the ability to see the world the same way again. Broken by guilt and trapped in silence, she pushes everyone away... until she meets Park Sunghoon. He becomes her comfort, her safe place, and the only person who makes her feel alive again. But the more she falls for him, the more she wonders... "Is he real, or is he just a beautiful memory her heart created?"

In a kingdom where fate is woven in crimson thread, every soul is destined to find the person waiting at the other end. Han Seo-Ah spent her entire life dreaming of that moment, but she never expected her red thread to lead her to the Crown Prince. Kim Sunoo was everything the kingdom adored. Kind, beloved, untouchable... and somehow, he was hers. Or at least, he was supposed to be. Because while Seo-Ah sees their thread as a blessing, Sunoo sees it as a curse. The closer they become, the more fate begins to unravel. And when love is measured in stolen moments and shortening threads, some soulmates are left with an impossible choice. Hold on... or let go. THEY WERE BOUND BY FATE. THEY WERE BOUND TO BREAK. [©LAYBIE_2026]
