Karina, a globally known actress, is used to being watched, admired, and criticized-but never questioned.
Minjeong is the opposite. Ordinary, quiet, and completely outside of Karina's world.
Their relationship starts in secrecy, something soft and private in between the chaos of fame. But the moment they're seen together, everything changes. The public turns ruthless, directing their scrutiny toward Minjeong-picking her apart, questioning her worth, deciding she doesn't belong beside someone like Karina.
What starts as criticism slowly turns into something more dangerous.
And when that danger finally reaches Minjeong, leaving her fighting for her life, Karina is forced to face the one thing she can't control-
That her job might be the very thing that destroys the person she loves most.

try again tomorrow - winrina
Yu Jimin is straight - or at least, that's what she keeps telling herself. Because if she isn't, then how else can she explain why she hasn't lost her mind after months of enduring Kim Minjeong's ridiculous, over-the-top, daily confessions? Minjeong, the campus heartthrob and self-proclaimed romantic idiot, has made it her full-time job to chase after Jimin's cold, uninterested heart - rain or shine, rejection after rejection, without shame or hesitation. Jimin, on the other hand, is beyond tired of it. It's not cute. It's not sweet. It's annoying. And the more Minjeong refuses to give up, the more Jimin feels like she's going to lose her sanity. Because no one should be this consistent... And no one should smile so brightly after being rejected every damn day. But maybe, just maybe, the line between annoyance and something else is thinner than she thinks.Complete
Apartment 404: Handle with care || Winrina
Moving in with three roommates was supposed to be fun. It wasn't. Karina swears she only wanted peace, quiet, and an organized closet. What she got instead: • A chaos gremlin named Ningning who eats her leftovers. • A "peacekeeper" Giselle who's somehow always late to peacekeeping. • And Winter - the most annoying, sarcastic, loud, messy, frustrating roommate ever... who also happens to look way too good in sweatpants at 3 a.m. Oh, and let's not forget the neighbors. ITZY lives right across the hall, and they've basically declared war. Between prank battles, rooftop arguments, and accidentally romantic moments, Karina's about to learn that love doesn't always knock politely. Sometimes, it barges into your apartment and eats the last bag of chips.Complete

Acting Like I'm Yours
Yu Karina had it all - beauty, brains, and the perfect boyfriend. At least, that's what everyone thought. When the truth about Lee Jeno's betrayal shatters her perfect image, Karina does something no one expected: she asks Kim Winter, the quiet girl who's been secretly admiring her from afar, to be her fake girlfriend. What starts as a plan for revenge slowly turns into something real - confusing, warm, and heartbreakingly genuine.
Bite me - Winrina
"I just wanted a dating app, not a near-death experience." Minjeong has three problems: her father's crushing debt, her complete lack of a social life, and the fact that she just matched with a girl so gorgeous it's probably a crime. Karina is mysterious, dark-eyed, and suggests they meet in an alley behind a closed-down theater. Minjeong's survival instincts? Nonexistent. She goes anyway. Obviously. One sharp bite later, she wakes up on Karina's lap with no memory of what happened, a weird pain in her neck, and the strange feeling that she's forgetting something important. What she doesn't know: Karina is a vampire. What she also doesn't know: once Karina tastes your blood, she can manipulate your mind. And Karina has no intention of letting her go.
High Standards -Winrina

Then comes Minjeong Kim, the bold new transfer student who makes it clear from day one: she wants Jimin. Minjeong hears about Jimin's high standards and wants to see how high those standards really are. But Minjeong's nature is what really got to Jimin. Minjeong didn't see her as a prize to win. She didn't see her only as a pretty face. She actually tried to get to know her, unlike the others who would be straightforward and just ask her out. Minjeong was friendly even through all the flirty comments. She wanted to make Jimin comfortable around her. Jimin swears she isn't interested, but everything about Minjeong is so warm and friendly. And no matter how hard she tries to deny it, falling for her might be inevitable.Complete
Bad Timing (Winrina)
What happens when you fall for your best friend... but the timing is always wrong? Minjeong is used to playing it cool. She's fine being the quiet one, the chill roommate, the girl who never asks for too much. But when it comes to Jimin - her best friend, her roommate, and the one person who sees through her silence - Minjeong is anything but fine. They weren't supposed to blur the lines. They weren't supposed to kiss. They definitely weren't supposed to fall asleep in each other's arms and pretend it didn't mean everything. But late nights turn into dangerous mornings. A single kiss turns into a secret. And desire turns into something much harder to name. When jealousy, fear, and unspoken feelings threaten to pull them apart, both girls must decide: Is this just a phase? Or is it finally time to stop hiding behind bad timing? A slow-burn, emotionally messy, and painfully romantic journey through friendship, longing, and the terrifying beauty of choosing love anyway.Complete
