She's always been certain, focused, untouchable, and completely uninterested in anything that could ruin her plans. Then Lisa walks in, easy and unbothered, slipping into her space like she's always belonged there. It starts with small things, shared drinks, quiet glances, lingering touches, but somewhere in between, Jennie begins to lose control of the one thing she's always had: herself. And when feelings finally catch up, she's left with a choice she never thought she'd have to make. walk away... or risk everything for something she doesn't fully understand yet.

Lisa Manoban stood at the center of Jennie Kim's world-and Jennie, unknowingly, still held that place in Lisa's heart. They loved hard, young and wild, in a world that demanded masks and silence. Somewhere between crowded schedules and whispered arguments, their relationship slipped through the cracks. Jennie moved on, or so it seemed. But Lisa never really let go. Now, from the shadows of sold-out concerts and behind anonymous usernames, Lisa watches Jennie shine brighter than ever. She's no longer the girl at her side, but she's still the loudest cheer in the crowd-unseen, unheard, yet unfailingly present. To Jennie, Lisa is a closed chapter. To Lisa, Jennie is still the story. And Jennie has no idea her biggest fan... is her ex.

"She was chaos in a hoodie. She was perfection wrapped in pressure. And somewhere between stolen pancakes and toothbrush wars, they fell in love." Synopsis: Jennie Kim has a plan. She always has. As the campus student council president, she's used to control, power, and the kind of icy perfection people admire from afar. But when a last-minute dorm assignment throws her into the world of Lalisa Manoban-quirky, unbothered, camera-loving chaos-her plans begin to unravel in the most inconvenient way possible. Lisa's only goal is to get through college without drama, deadlines, or falling in love. She wears hoodies like armor, hides feelings behind flirtatious grins, and captures life through her lens, one photo at a time. But Jennie? Jennie is the photo she can't stop taking. From chaotic short films with the campus misfits, rooftop graduations, and fights over toothbrushes to unexpected snow days, late-night cuddles, and a summer fling with lingering tension, Love, Unbothered is a slow-burn college love story packed with banter, vulnerability, and heart. Featuring a hilarious ensemble cast-from the poetry-reading Jonghyun, chaotic cousin Jisoo, sweet songbird Rosé, and Jennie's loyal best friend Chahe, to Lisa's meddling film crew and the campus beauty queens who surprise everyone-it's a story about love, growth, and finally choosing the life that feels like home. Because sometimes, love isn't loud. Sometimes, it's quiet mornings in a shared apartment. And sometimes, it's just one photo that says everything.

One night in Bangkok. That's all it was supposed to be. Jennie Kim-ice-veined CEO of Korea's most powerful conglomerate-doesn't do reckless. She doesn't break rules, and she certainly doesn't break. But she did. For her. Lisa Manoban-charismatic, cocky, infuriatingly magnetic. A low-level developer with a smile that could start wars... and secrets that could end empires. Jennie never meant to see her again. Never meant to want more. Until Lisa walks into her boardroom. Cool. Unbothered. Dangerous. Jennie should fire her. Bury the night. Move on. But Lisa's collecting something-slowly, deliberately. Not power. Not titles. Jennie's attention. Her silence. Her control. One whispered command at midnight, one lingering look across a meeting room, and everything starts to unravel. Because Lisa isn't just anyone. And Jennie isn't used to being wanted like this. Not quietly. Not mercilessly. Not like she belongs to someone. And in the end- She might. Only question is... Who's really playing who?

"In a hospital where everything is monitored, some heartbeats still go unnoticed." At Asan Medical Center, where ambition slices sharper than scalpels and every glance is a clinical risk, a guarded cardiac attending and a rule-breaking neurosurgery resident navigate surgical rounds, hallway gossip, and their dangerously growing connection-while trying to keep everything strictly professional. At its heart is Dr. Jennie Kim-a brilliant, ice-cool cardiac attending whose surgical precision is matched only by her legendary emotional restraint. Opposite her is Dr. Lisa Manoban, a rising neurosurgery resident with swagger, sharp instincts, and a reputation for breaking rules and expectations alike. As surgical rounds, trauma cases, and late-night call shifts bring their worlds into increasingly charged proximity, the line between professional and personal begins to blur. Surrounded by nosy colleagues, complicated friendships, and rivalries wrapped in white coats, Jennie and Lisa must navigate the tension, the gossip, and the heartbeat between them-all without slipping up. Packed with banter, high-stakes medicine, unspoken glances, and hallway heat, Code Red: Hearts in Scrubs is a slow-burn love story disguised as hospital drama-intense, classy, and just a scalpel's edge away from exposure.
