Korea. Jun-ho was never given a choice. Raised by a family who loved him in the shape they'd designed for him, he has spent his life becoming what was expected - the steady son, the reliable friend, the boy who would one day marry the girl his parents already adored. Su-jin has been by his side since they were fourteen. She is beautiful. She is kind. She is perfect on paper. And he has never once been in love with her. Then, on an ordinary Tuesday, exhausted and running from the weight of his own life, he steps into a small café tucked three blocks from his office. Behind the counter stands Ha-ru - gentle, unhurried, unbothered by expectations. He sees Jun-ho from the first moment. Not the version the world recognizes, but the one underneath. As days turn into weeks and the café becomes the only place Jun-ho can breathe, he begins to fall - slowly, irreversibly - for the one person his world never planned for. When the truth can no longer be contained, Jun-ho is forced to do the one thing he was never raised to do: choose for himself. But honesty comes at a cost. Friendships fracture. Families go silent. And in the quiet aftermath of everything he's broken, Jun-ho must face the question that has lived inside him since the first cup of coffee he never ordered: Is desire worth the cost of duty? Duty and Desire is a slow-burn love story about the weight of expectations, the cost of truth, and the courage it takes to love someone when love was never part of the plan.

And tangled somewhere in the midst of it all...a love she never stopped carrying.
