"Ken was supposed to be the wingman. But he's been aiming for Paul all along." Ken and Paul have been inseparable since childhood-the kind of best friends whose families blurred into one. They chose the same university, shared the same circles, and built a bond that seemed unshakable. To Paul, Ken was always the golden boy: handsome, brilliant, effortlessly popular, the guy who changed girlfriends as easily as semesters. But what Paul never saw was the truth behind Ken's charm. For years, Ken carried a quiet, unspoken crush on his best friend, hiding it beneath playful banter and protective gestures. When Paul finally confesses that he needs Ken's help to win over his own crush, Ken agrees. After all, who better to coach him than the campus heartthrob? Yet every piece of advice, every "practice" moment, every staged romantic gesture becomes a chance for Ken to blur the line between friendship and something more. As Paul stumbles through lessons in charm, Ken shifts from loyal protector to secret initiator-turning playful intimacy into a hidden romance. And with the ensemble of friends gleefully meddling, the question isn't whether Paul will win his crush's heart, but whether he'll realize Ken has already stolen his.
