She came to Seoul for a conference. She never expected to leave with a secret worth risking everything for. ‧˚₊‧ ┈┈┈ ⟡ ┈┈┈ ‧₊˚⊹‧˚₊‧ ┈┈┈ ⟡ ┈┈┈ ‧₊˚⊹ Brianna expected Seoul to be another stop in her academic career-not the place that would change her life. But when an accidental encounter with Kang-Min, one of Asia's most sought-after pop stars, sparks an undeniable connection, everything changes. Their chemistry is electric, but their worlds couldn't be more different. As their secret connection deepens, Brianna and Kang-Min are forced to confront cultural divides, the strain of long-distance, and the ever-present threat of public exposure. In a world where love can become a career-ending scandal, can they keep their relationship hidden long enough to discover what they truly want-or will loving each other demand more than either is prepared to give? **Note:** This was the first story I ever posted on Wattpad. At the time, I simply wanted to get the story out of my head and into the world. Because of that, it hasn't gone through the same level of editing as my newer stories. One day, I do plan to revisit and refresh it, but for now, I'm leaving it as a reminder of where my writing journey started. Thank you for reading and growing with me along the way. 🤍 Playlist for the Story ⬇️ or search VibesWithLex on Spotify and you will see the book cover: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2XBdNe97Xh4xf7PMspWhHX?si=pW4frcbRRpKt-AZUPg_zOQ&pi=pEqZCVTnSUOfI
