A girl chasing her dream. A boy looking for the light.
When Florence Nyx started her internship at a Formula 1 paddock, she expected a lot. Fast cars. Exclusive impressions most people could only dream of. An entire array of skills she'd acquire. What she didn't expect was the avalanche of hurdles thrown in her way -- but none of them knew who Florence Nyx was behind her facade, behind the image of a world champion's daughter.
She was fire. She was fast. And most of all... she was underestimated.
Phoenix McCoy didn't know what hit him when he got thrown out of his team. His whole career was on the line, just because of that one stupid mistake. One mistake.
How far will he go to rectify it? To pursue his dreams?
One thing was clear: He saw the light, and he wanted it. All he could hope was he didn't get burned.

In the neon-lit streets of Neo-Ionia, dreams and danger collide. Y/N, a quiet, mechanically gifted boy, and Ahri, a spirited girl with a mysterious spark of magic, have been inseparable since childhood, bonding over broken radios, crayons, and a shared vision of a car they once drew together-a vision that would one day become legendary. Years later, after high school separates them, Ahri rises to global stardom as part of the K-pop phenomenon K/DA, while Y/N carves out a hidden life as an underground street racer, perfecting his modified Nissan GTR R34, a car inspired by the designs he and Ahri dreamed up together.

Will Y/N and Ahri's childhood promise survive the heat of the streets, the glare of the spotlight, and the fire between them? Or will their worlds drive them apart forever?
