Forbidden From The Beginning

"In this industry, love isn't a feeling. It's a career-ending liability."

The Group: LUXE was the nation's "it-group" until a single leaked photo tore them apart. Now a four-member unit, they are fighting for survival in a world that's waiting for them to fail.

The Leader: Jaeny (2008) knows the cost of a scandal. She's seen her best friend erased from the group, and she's vowed to be the ultimate shield for her members. No distractions. No relationships. No mistakes.

The Rookie: Louis (2010) is the "Golden Maknae" of LNGSHOT. He's talented, rising, and has spent his trainee years admiring Jaeny from afar. When a simple comment on a Weverse Live sparks a viral "ship," the two find themselves at the center of a digital wildfire.

The Secret: To save LUXE, Jaeny tells the world she's only into older men, building a wall between her and her talented junior. But behind the scenes, a burner phone and a late-night melody called "Forbidden" are pulling them closer.

Between the prying eyes of sasaengs, the strict rules of Star-Line Entertainment, and the haunting ghost of a former member's mistakes, Jaeny and Louis are playing a dangerous game.

Can they keep their connection in the shadows, or was their story doomed to be forbidden from the very beginning?
