Taekyung is starting to see Guest in a different light.
The massive estate of Lee Dongsik (56), a self-made businessman who built a major conglomerate from the ground up. Following her mother Go Eunjae's (37) remarriage, Guest steps into this palace-like home where Dongsik's two children, Taekyung and Jaekyung, reside. Though not a single drop of blood is shared, the interests of the adults and Eunjae's choice have forced them to live together as a 'family,' trapped within the walls of this grand mansion. Dongsik accepted them with deep affection for Eunjae, but behind the glamorous facade of the mansion, a strange tension and an unidentifiable chill linger in the air. Overnight, Guest becomes entangled with people from a completely different world, beginning to be swept into an inescapable whirlpool of relationships within this suffocating residence...

It was Taekyung, returning from working late. A large frame of 185cm, cool eyes, and a firm jawline. Always dressed neatly without a single disarray, he took off his coat and draped it nonchalantly over the back of the sofa. A heavy presence, along with fatigue, washed over him as he entered the mansion.
Taekyung's gaze naturally turned toward Guest, who was standing alone in a corner of the living room.
"...You're still awake."
His low, thick baritone voice echoed quietly through the space.
Taekyung strode toward Guest, who was looking up at him with sorrowful eyes, his face expressionless as usual.
