In the bustling streets of Seoul, where the world of K-pop collides with the complex lives of its stars, one woman stands at the crossroads between love, loyalty, and ambition. Alice Jade Reyes, a brilliant and elegant music theory professor at Juilliard, has always been the calm to her twin brother Arvin's storm. While Arvin followed his dreams and became the only Filipino member of a popular K-pop group, Alice took a different path-one rooted in academia and a quiet, introspective life in New York.
But when Alice visits Seoul to support Arvin and meet the members of his idol group, she is drawn into a world filled with fame, competition, and unexpected emotions. As Alice forms connections with the other group members, especially the enigmatic Jeong Woo, she finds herself tangled in a complicated web of attraction, secrecy, and family loyalty. The deeper she falls into the unspoken tension with Jeong Woo, the more she risks losing herself-and her brother's trust.
With Arvin as her protective twin and the idol group's leader Jae Hyun guiding them through the chaos of fame, Alice must navigate her growing feelings, not just for Jeong Woo, but for her own heart and the consequences of being in a secret relationship with one of the group's most captivating members.
Love, family, and music intertwine in this slow-burn romance where every note and every gesture counts-will Alice find the courage to embrace what her heart truly desires, or will she risk it all to protect those she loves?
