Before the Kim-Manoban family, there were the Manobans and the Kims.
Lisa Manoban was the reckless heiress sent to Seoul after one mistake too many. Jennie Kim was the academy's untouchable queen-perfect, respected, and impossible to impress.
They were never supposed to get close.
But between school chaos, stolen moments, and a love neither of them expected, Lisa and Jennie became each other's favorite problem.
Until family, power, and an arranged engagement tore them apart.

My Functional Wife
Jennie Kim has spent seven years proving herself worthy of leading her family's conglomerate, only to discover that the board won't hand it over until she demonstrates something she's never prioritized: a stable personal life. Desperate, she proposes a contractual marriage to Lisa Manoban, a self-made chef she's crossed paths with exactly enough times to know one thing: Lisa wants nothing from her. The arrangement is simple. A marriage built on rules. Just five years pretending to be the perfect couple. But somewhere between shared meals, quiet nights, arguments, and the life they accidentally built together, the lines they promised never to cross began to disappear. The problem is... some contracts have an expiration date. And sometimes, the hardest thing isn't falling in love; it's realizing you want more.
