When reckless pirate Haerin stumbles into a secluded cave during a drunken escapade, she doesn't expect to find herself face-to-face with a siren-a creature of myth and song, feared by sailors across the seas. Danielle, a siren yearning for a world beyond the waves, is equally unprepared for the bold human who disrupts her solitude. What begins as a dangerous game of curiosity and flirtation quickly spirals into something deeper, forcing them both to question the worlds they've always known.

*Synopsis*: Emperor Kim has ruled the Kim empire for over two decades, but he has one problem: he has no son to inherit the throne. Despite having multiple wives and concubines, he has failed to produce a male heir, much to his frustration and the dismay of his court. He fears that his legacy will be tarnished and his kingdom will fall into chaos without a clear successor. He desperately seeks a solution, consulting astrologers, doctors, and monks, but nothing seems to work. He even considers adopting a son from a noble family, but he is reluctant to give up his bloodline. One day, he receives the news that he has been waiting for: one of his wives is pregnant with his child. He is overjoyed and hopeful that this will be the son he has longed for. He lavishes his attention and care on the expectant mother, and prepares for the birth of his heir. However, when the day comes, he is shocked and dismayed to discover that the child is a girl, not a boy. He feels betrayed and humiliated, and wonders if this is a curse or a test from the heavens. He is torn between his love for his daughter and his duty to his dynasty. He faces a dilemma: should he acknowledge her as his child and risk the wrath of his court and the people, or should he disown her and continue his quest for a son? What will he do when he is given a daughter instead of a prized son?

Let me paint you a picture: the world's most average, forgettable person, just coasting through life, like a C-list extra in a low-budget college movie. That's me-Kim Minji, the girl who's always in that fuzzy, out-of-focus part of everyone's memories. You know, like when you try to recall high school, and all you get is an epic montage of your friends living it up, awkward dances, and too many atomic pizza slices from the school's cafeteria-I'm the person you squint at in the yearbook and go, "Who the fuck is that?" For the longest time, I was convinced I'd stay in that hazy, out-of-focus part of life. I was fine with it, too. Who needs to be the star of the show when you can just be the background? No pressure, no expectations-just a simple life of microwaved ramen, late-night cram sessions, and the occasional existential crisis about my major. You know, standard college stuff. But then there was that party. The party that turned my background character ass into the main character. The one that made my life turn 180 and flipped my quiet world on its head. (G!P)

In the quaint town of Willowbrook, where cobblestone streets wound their way through cozy shops and blossoming gardens, lived a young girl named Hyein Lee. Her days were a blend of fleeting laughter and quiet moments of solitude. Hyein had always thought herself ordinary, her dreams soaring beyond the boundaries that kept her in. That was until bad luck knocked on her door in the most heart stopping way. Her parents had passed. Suddenly and so untimely. Hyein stood at a crossroads with her emotions. Her days of laughter were over. But years later hope would glimmer in Hyein's eyes again when two families offer to adopt her. Torn again Hyein has to choose between two worlds as divergent as night and day. On one side, there was Hanni and Minji, a couple dripping with affluence and adorned with the trappings of the upper echelon. And then there was the other side, where Haerin and Danielle's hearts resonated with the steady rhythm of a simpler existence. Caught between these two families, Hyein's heart was a tempest of emotions. Would she choose the dazzling allure of opulence, where she could bask in the glow of socialites and dazzling gowns? Or would she opt for the tender embrace of the countryside, where the rustling leaves and soft whispers of love would be her constant companions?
