The Rival Equation || Park Jihoon

Lee Hanuel was born with Seoul at her feet - daughter of Lee Reyeon and Lee Dahyun, the ruthless owners of Haejin Group and the invisible hand behind half the country's economy. Sculpted by privilege and sharpened by legacy, Hanuel doesn't flinch, doesn't falter, and never loses. Until someone starts reminding her of everything she was
meant to forget.

Anonymous threats. Scandalous photos. A name she's buried in guilt - a girl whose life was destroyed by her father's power.

And somehow, Park Jihoon is always nearby.

Sarcastic. Brilliant. Infuriating.
The boy who's been her rival since high school.
The boy who writes poetry that slices through glass ceilings.
The boy who once said she'd rot just like the empire she'll inherit.
As the attacks escalate, alliances blur.
Secrets unravel.
And in the shadows, someone watches - someone who wants to see the Lee legacy fall, even if it means dragging Hanuel down with it.

Rivals. Enemies. Maybe something more.
Because the line between love and hate was never the problem.
Survival is.
