Woo Seul-Ki never belonged in a world of polished shoes and silk-lined halls. Growing up in a provincial orphanage, she fought for every opportunity, earning her place at Chaehwa High School-a prestigious academy for South Korea's elite. Among students born into power, she is an anomaly, a mere scholarship student lost in a sea of wealth and privilege.

Yoo Je-Yi, the school's untouchable queen, has never had to fight for anything. Born into a world of influence, she commands attention effortlessly-intelligent, beautiful, and as ruthless as she is revered. No one dares to question her. No one dares to defy her. Until Seul-Ki.

When Je-Yi's gaze lands on the quiet, unshaken transfer student, curiosity turns into something more. At first, it's a game-an amusement to break the monotony of perfection. But Seul-Ki isn't like the others. She doesn't cower, doesn't fall in line, and worst of all, doesn't seem to care.

What begins as an innocent fascination spirals into something darker. A silent war of power and control. A dangerous balance between friendship and obsession. Because in Chaehwa High, to be noticed by Yoo Je-Yi is both a privilege and a curse.

And once you're beneath her gaze-there's no escaping it.
