Drummer Stories

On the brink of burnout and one disastrous tour away from losing everything, world-famous singer Choi San is desperate for a fresh start. His band is falling apart, the press is circling, and his longtime drummer has just walked out before the biggest comeback of his career. The only thing standing between San and complete collapse is finding someone who can keep up with him - on stage and off. Enter Jung Wooyoung. Chaotic, sharp-tongued, and impossibly talented, Wooyoung is a drummer no one seems to have heard of despite his undeniable genius behind the kit. Their first meeting is a disaster. Their second is worse. But when San hears Wooyoung play for the first time, something shifts. Beneath the attitude and reckless charm is a musician who understands songs the way San does - emotionally, instinctively, completely. Reluctantly, San offers him the job. What begins as a tense professional partnership slowly turns into something far more dangerous. Late-night rehearsals blur into vulnerable conversations. Shared hotel rooms, exhausting tours, and the pressure of fame force them closer than either of them intended. Wooyoung challenges San in ways no one ever has, refusing to treat him like a celebrity, while San becomes the first person to truly see beyond Wooyoung's carefully crafted walls.

By night, she performed in a small bar with her band, losing herself in the music that made her feel free. But not everything that feels right stays that way. When a new member suddenly joins their band, Astrix is forced to face a familiar stranger. A boy she has known since high school-someone who has always been there, yet never truly part of her world. For the first time, the quiet distance between them begins to shift. The music feels different, heavier... almost meaningful. Almost...
