To the world, he is the invisible shield protecting South Korea's most ruthless industrial dynasty. But in secret, he has built a multi-billion-dollar global financial fortress-and the family has no idea who it is meant to keep out.
Myeongseong Group is a monolithic global empire dominating autonomous heavy transport, aerospace materials, data infrastructure, and industrial robotics. Run by Chairwoman Kwon Yoon-jin and financial mastermind Kwon Da-hyun, the dynasty is seemingly untouchable-but perpetually targeted by international corporate warfare.
Their brilliant younger brother, Kwon Jae-hwan, is the empire's neutral guardian. Operating entirely in the shadows, he uses his independent powerhouse, JH Group, as an invisible financial and digital shield to protect the family crown.
But his loyalty is a calculated front. Deep within the dynasty lies a haunting, shared guilt over the tragic death of their illegitimate youngest sister, Boo-yeon, who was broken by the patriarch's ruthlessness. While his siblings are haunted by regret, Jae-hwan carries a dangerous, quiet resentment.
When Jae-hwan falls deeply in love with actress Han Seo-jin, he knows the family's golden cage will eventually try to tear her to pieces to protect their high-society optics. He has secretly engineered JH Group to be an impenetrable fortress for her-but the wolves of Myeongseong are closing in.
When the family finally discovers that their perfect guardian has built a sanctuary for an outsider, will his fortress be enough to save her? Or will his desperate bid for love trigger the very dynasty-shattering war he has spent his entire life preventing?

Sir, you are not REAL!
Twenty-four-year-old Evelyne Royce had never worried about her novels becoming successful. They always did. Readers cried, laughed, argued over love interests, and inevitably fell head over heels for the male leads she had so carefully crafted. That was how every one of her stories had gone. Until her latest novel. Instead of falling for the hero, millions of readers became hopelessly obsessed with the second lead. A ruthless billionaire named AIDEN VESCOTT, a character she had created for one purpose and one purpose only: to suffer. She gave him a lonely childhood. A broken family. Endless betrayals. Then, without a second thought, she gave him a tragic ending. The internet hated it. Readers begged her to rewrite the story. They wrote essays defending him, made edits, created fan pages, and somehow turned the man she had written to be a supporting character into the most beloved person in the entire novel. Evelyne dismissed it as another internet obsession. Until one rainy night... She returned home, unlocked her apartment, and found a man asleep on her sofa. Dark hair. Sharp features. Expensive suit. And when he finally opened his eyes, he looked straight at her... ...and smiled.
After her parents die unexpectedly, Sarah learns she has inherited an old farm that has been neglected for years. She is determined to make it a working farm again and restore it to its former glory, but will it end up being too much for her? or will she make her dreams come true against all odds.
