The Price of Her Absence

When Byul-the beloved eldest of the Yoon family-dies just months after giving birth to her daughter, she leaves behind a shattered husband, a grieving younger brother, and a child who looks just like the both of them. Yoon Jeonghan, South Korea's most adored model and actor, was her "first child," and Soojin, her daughter, becomes the only piece of her left.

As the weight of grief settles over the family, a question no one dares voice becomes inevitable:
Who will step in to raise Soojin?
Who, other than Jeonghan-the man who loved Byul like a mother and loves Soojin like a father?

But when the suggestion arises that Jeonghan marry Seungcheol-his sister's husband, Korea's most powerful CEO, and the man who terrifies and captivates him in equal measure-he is forced to confront a future where love, grief, and guilt blur into something unthinkably tender.

In the aftermath of love, who is left to pay the price of her absence?
