they say the stage brings people together, but for yuri, a rookie idol at JYP entertainment, it only brought him.
hwang hyunjin, the golden boy of k-pop. perfect smile, perfect dance lines, perfect everything. and apparently, her worst nightmare. it all started with a single look, a stupid camera angle that made it seem like she rolled her eyes during his award speech. overnight, yuri became the girl who disrespected hyunjin. the internets favourite villain. as for hyunjin? he became the symbol of everything she was suddenly standing against.
so when JYP announced a collaboration stage between them, ningning knew it wasn't fate. it was punishment. weeks of shared studios. endless rehearsals. late nights under harsh lights. and hyunjin, watching her with that unreadable expression that made her chest tighten for all the wrong reasons.
he disliked her, she was sure of it. what unsettled her was the way that certainty began to crack. because when the cameras stopped rolling and the applause faded, she started to see something else. not the idol the world worshipped, but the person behind the perfection. someone real.
this wasn't supposed to happen.
not between rivals.
not between idols bound by rules and reputations.
and definitely not between kim yuri and hwang hyunjin.
book one of the idol series.
