Cityoflove Stories

Our protagonist, Yuna, is the introverted yet immensely talented lead vocalist of Velvet Bloom, one of the most popular K-pop girl bands in South Korea. On stage, she dazzles with her powerful voice and magnetic presence, but away from the spotlight, she's shy and reserved, shunning media attention and fanfare whenever she can. Despite her fame, Yuna longs for a quiet life and finds true solace only in her music-a world where she feels safe, unseen, and free. Then she meets Ryu, the enigmatic heir to an Italian-Korean mafia family. Ryu is a seamless blend of elegance and danger; he moves through life with charm, but beneath his composed exterior lies a man tormented by the violence and shadows that come with his family's legacy. Raised with unwavering loyalty to his family, Ryu knows the path set before him, yet dreams of escaping the dark world he has inherited. When Yuna and Ryu meet by chance at a high-profile charity event in Seoul, they're inexplicably drawn to each other's contrasting worlds. She's intrigued by his mysterious aura and protective intensity, while he's captivated by her quiet strength and the rare innocence she brings into his life. Despite the secrets they each hold, their connection grows into a deep and consuming love that neither of them can ignore. But as Yuna and Ryu fall for each other, they become entangled in a dangerous web of secrets and betrayals. With relentless paparazzi following Yuna's every move and Ryu's rivals closing in, both must decide how much they're willing to risk to protect their love. In a world where the stakes are high and the shadows run deep, can they ever truly find peace-or are some heartbeats destined to remain hidden? Hidden Heartbeats is a passionate tale of forbidden love, where two souls from opposing worlds find courage, danger, and a love that could cost them everything.
