HIS GUARDIAN

Kim Taehyung isn't your average teenager. The reclusive, brilliant son of Korea's most powerful tech magnate, he spends his days buried in schematics and AI algorithms-building machines that could save the world... or end it. Socially awkward, painfully shy, and constantly targeted at school, Taehyung finds solace only in the quiet hum of circuits and the comforting shadow of his father's legacy.

But everything shatters the night his father, Kim Jin Seok, is killed in a devastating explosion-an incident quickly dismissed as an accident. Grief-stricken and alone, Taehyung begins to question everything he's ever known... especially when he starts being followed.

She appears like a phantom-beautiful, enigmatic, and utterly untraceable. A girl with eyes that seem to know more than they should, and combat skills no ordinary person should possess. She claims her mission is to protect him. She says his life is in danger. And she's willing to die to keep him alive.

As Taehyung unravels the secrets buried beneath his father's empire, he discovers a world of hidden agendas, synthetic assassins, and powerful enemies who will stop at nothing to erase him. But the greatest mystery of all is her-the girl who saves him again and again, yet refuses to tell him who she really is.

With danger closing in and trust becoming a rare currency, Taehyung faces an impossible choice: survive the truth... or fall in love with it.
