Seungcheol is at the peak of fame-leader of a top idol group, constantly in the spotlight, adored by millions. But fame comes with danger: stalkers, threats, and no real sense of safety.
Enter Jeonghan.
Transferred in quietly, dressed in black suits and sharp glances, Jeonghan is assigned as his personal bodyguard. He's efficient, unreadable, and keeps a professional distance that drives Seungcheol insane.
Because unlike everyone else, Jeonghan:
-- doesn't laugh at his jokes
-- doesn't get starstruck
-- doesn't treat him like anything special
At first, Seungcheol is annoyed.
Then curious.
Then completely, helplessly aware of him.
Jeonghan, however, notices everything-how Seungcheol skips meals when stressed, how his smile changes depending on the crowd, how exhausted he is when the cameras turn off.
Their relationship builds in small moments:
-- shared silence in the car after long schedules
-- Jeonghan stepping closer when crowds get too aggressive
-- Seungcheol testing boundaries just to get a reaction
-- Jeonghan breaking protocol once-and only once-to hold his wrist a second longer than necessary
The breaking point comes when a real threat appears, and Jeonghan stops being "just a bodyguard."
Because protecting Seungcheol isn't just a job anymore.
It's personal.
