RUINBOUND

Some marriages are built on paper. Our is built on ruin.

She already knew him.

And she already hated him.

Park Jiwoo never expected the man she couldn't stand to become her husband. When her family forces her into an arranged marriage with Lee Heeseung, she has no choice but to accept a future she never wanted.

But Jiwoo isn't the only victim.

Heeseung is just as unwilling, pressured by his own family into a marriage he never agreed to. Cold, distant, and impossible to read, he makes one thing painfully clear, they will be husband and wife in name, nothing more.

To everyone else, they are the perfect couple.

Behind closed doors, they are two people bound by a ring they never chose, carrying misunderstandings, pride, and wounds that neither is ready to reveal.

As time passes, hatred begins to blur into something neither of them expected. But with family expectations, buried secrets, and painful truths standing between them, love may come at a price neither is prepared to pay.

Sometimes the person you swore you'd never love...

becomes the one you can't bear to lose.
