Hiraeth /ˈhɪərʌɪθ/hi-raeth/(n.) - A homesickness for a home to which you cannot return, a home which maybe never was; the nostalgia, the yearning, the grief for the lost places of your past. Kim Eun-ji is an aspiring trainee at HYBE Entertainment, chasing her passion for music and dance. In the bustling city of Seoul, where neon lights dance to the beats of a modern melody, Eun-ji's world seems as normal as any other K-pop idol in the making. An ordinary girl with an extraordinary dream? Not quite. A celestial secret lies dormant within her, waiting to disrupt the rhythm of her seemingly typical life. A divine destiny awaits her, entwined with the timeless tales of Greek Gods and Goddesses, and demigods. Danger is looming in the distance. Friendships are formed and tested, foes are made and discovered. Nothing is what it seems.

Carmen Holbrook's life is practically perfect until her younger sister, Lily, goes missing. While fighting grief and disbelief, she stumbles across a stranger, who invites her to see the traveling circus. Only digging up dead-ends and false alarms about her sister, she accepts. Hwang Hyunjin was meant for stardom. Beneath the blinding lights and equipped with a spectacular array of talents, it seems like the circus life is a dream come true. When he invites Carmen to join him, life flips upside down. It's a once in a lifetime opportunity to join the circus and she knows that. Taking a chance, she's determined to bring awareness to her sister's disappearance. The added bonus of being paid and performing alongside Hyunjin is far more than what she was expecting. However, there's a weariness that she just can't shake. Fellow circus members seem a bit strange at times. Something seems off and no matter how much she tries to avoid it, there's an unshakeable aura of mystery beneath the big top. Someone or something will do anything to keep her from finding out the truth, even if that means going to extreme lengths to keep it quiet.
