Silent Thread: Lookism x Choi Sungjae reader Fanfic

Choi Sungjae, a 16-year-old boy from Incheon, has lived his whole life in the shadow of poverty and indifference. He decides he's had enough of the suffocating streets of Incheon. With nothing but a duffel bag and a few thousand won in his pocket, he sets out for Seoul - a city he believes will give him a fresh start.

Enrolling at J High School, Sungjae hopes to rebuild himself from scratch. But reality hits harder than he expected. With his poor grades and lack of money, the only class that will take him is the Fashion Department - a course filled with eccentric personalities, aspiring models, and hidden prodigies.

Just when Sungjae begins to settle into his new life, he starts noticing strange things - street fights breaking out after school, names whispered with fear, and rumors of powerful groups that control the underworld of Seoul's youth. Before long, he learns about the Four Major Crews, each ruling different corners of the city... and the man who pulls all the strings from behind the curtain - Charles Choi.

Caught between ambition and survival, Sungjae must decide:
Will he stay an ordinary student, or will he dive into the violent web that binds Seoul's underground world?
