In a world where rules exist to be broken and hearts to be tested, the question isn't whether they'll fall-it's whether either of them can survive the consequences.

She came to Korea for work. He was the reason the world stopped breathing. Ayla has always lived with quiet strength, faith, and purpose a woman who never chases what isn't meant for her.

I am an orphan. Point blank. But technically, I've got family. An auntie, sisters, brothers-the whole nine yards. No mom, but a dad? Yeah, I've got plenty of those. That's the problem. "Saerang, keep some rubbers on you. For real. To a drunken dog, a female is just a female." One auntie, twenty sisters, five brothers, and 'Dad'... well, that number's flexible. On a busy night, I can have up to five dads. "Who's the new girl? She's a looker." "Hands off. She's probably your daughter's age." "So what? We're all family here. Hey, 'Daughter'! Come over here to Daddy." By tomorrow, he won't remember my face-or the fact that I even existed. I don't know their real names. It's all fake anyway. But I do know the name of this place. That part's real. <Arirang Pub> And that's why my name is Saerang. From the 'bitch' (Arirang) who dumped her pup (Saekki) and bolted. *** "Are you a minor?" "No." "Then what are you?" "A high school senior." At first, he was just some old guy. A man with a pathetic excuse for a conscience, looking at me like I was the kind of brat who'd walk into a convenience store right after graduation and demand a pack of cigarettes. A man who put his own smokes back in his pocket after seeing me. "If you ever need a man to marry, call me." Then again, he was no 'Daddy Long Legs.' No romantic savior would hand his business card to a senior who was looking for marriage just to escape her shitty life. "Mister, I'm not stupid enough to trust a man whose name I don't even know." "Shin Joo-ho." "......." "That's my name." To me, he was just Shin Joo-ho.
