99 parts Complete The Doctor's Embrace
Leila, a 24-year-old successful makeup artist, hides her pain behind perfect eyeliner and a practiced smile. On the surface, her life looks vibrant, but underneath, she's been silently breaking-especially since she distanced herself from the only person who once meant everything to her.
Jungkook, now 30, is a brilliant cardiac surgeon. But before the white coat and the title, he was just her cousin-more like a big brother-her "oppa." The bond between them had always been unbreakable. After all, their mothers were real sisters, inseparable both by blood and by heart.
But tragedy hit hard. A terrible accident took both their mothers, leaving Leila and Jungkook clinging to each other in a world that suddenly felt too cold. When Jungkook decided to go to medical school, Leila-haunted by her fear of doctors-slowly began pulling away, until she disappeared from his life completely.
Years later, fate reunites them when Leila is rushed to the very hospital Jungkook works at. Now, he's the one holding her chart... and refusing to let go of her hand.
With his best friend Dr. Kim Taehyung by his side, Leila is surrounded by care she never thought she deserved. Between whispered checkups and gentle touches, she begins to wonder: can love mend the years of silence... and a broken heart?
