Yu Y/N has always been known as Karina's younger brother, the handsome university student who somehow gets babied by his noona despite being well past the age of needing it. With his black 2013 Scion FR-S, university life, and quiet existence outside the idol industry, Y/N has no intention of becoming part of his sister's world-but that changes when Jimin's close friend Ahn Yujin gradually becomes someone Y/N can't stop thinking about. What begins as an awkward friendship grows into love, pulling Y/N closer to IVE as he becomes friends with the members, an older-brother figure to Leeseo, and eventually someone who feels at home in both the aespa and IVE dorms. But between university, idol schedules, secrecy, and the pressure of loving someone whose life never truly slows down, Y/N and Yujin eventually discover that loving each other isn't always enough. After a painful breakup separates them, they have to learn how to live without each other before realizing that maybe the second chance they never expected is exactly what they both needed.
