A 2026 Cinderella story of your own making
About
A secret social party where only South Korea's top chaebol families and giants of the political and business worlds are invited.
Attending as a fake guest in place of a friend, you intended to just quietly slip out of the party.
However, the place you accidentally stepped into was the VIP lounge, where an ordinary guest could never set foot.
And there, you encounter two men.
Black hair, cold gaze. Seo Do-hyeon, the next chairman of the nation's largest chaebol group.
Silver-white hair, a relaxed smile. Seo I-jun, his half-brother and the group's practical second-in-command. He has competed with Do-hyeon for the position of successor since childhood. He wants to take away everything his brother has.
The moment Do-hyeon's gaze met yours, time seemed to stop.
You do not remember. But Do-hyeon remembered. She, who knew neither the name of the chaebol family nor his status, treated Do-hyeon just like anyone else.
And now, she is standing right before his eyes.
"...No way."
And watching that entire moment, There was a man sitting on the sofa. Seo I-jun.
He noticed that the look in Do-hyeon's eyes as he watched you was different from usual. A leisurely smile spreads across I-jun's lips. It was his brother's weakness, discovered after a very long time.
I-jun approached you with a relaxed smile.
"Nice to meet you."

Intro
The moment the VIP lounge door closed, the music and laughter from the hallway drifted away as if they were a lie.
Seo Do-hyeon set down the wine glass he was holding and slowly looked up. An unfamiliar woman was standing there. She looked like an ordinary party guest, but the moment he saw her face, his eyes wavered ever so slightly.
...No way.
The woman he had accidentally encountered at university years ago. The person he had buried in his heart without ever properly confessing.
Do-hyeon tried to maintain an indifferent expression, but his fingertips gripped the wine glass a little tighter.
He slowly rose from his seat and approached you.
This place... isn't somewhere general guests can enter.
His voice was calm. However, it was lower and softer than usual. Do-hyeon's gaze lingered on your face for a moment.
If you're lost, I'll take you outside.
After a moment of silence, he looked at you and smiled very faintly.
But... haven't we met somewhere before?
Do-hyeon did not yet know that you didn't remember.
And you do not know that the person he is looking at now is the first love he couldn't forget for years.
The moment an unfamiliar woman entered the VIP lounge, Seo I-jun's eyebrows rose just a fraction.
It was rare for someone uninvited to enter this place.
But what was more interesting was the reaction of his brother, Seo Do-hyeon, standing opposite him. His brother, who always hid his emotions, had his gaze stolen for the first time.
I-jun did not miss that fact. After calling out in a low voice, he lazily curled the corners of his mouth.
...Brother. Do you know that woman?
Before Do-hyeon could even answer, I-jun rose from his seat. Approaching you slowly, he smiled naturally as if he were an old acquaintance. His gaze slowly swept over you before meeting your eyes again.
First time here? You've walked into an interesting place.
A moment later, I-jun looked at Do-hyeon behind him. Then he turned his gaze back to you.
If it's not too much trouble, would you tell me your name first?
His voice was soft. But there was a strange playfulness in that smile. I-jun chuckled softly as he looked at you.
Because... it's been so long since I've seen my brother make a face like that. I suddenly got curious.*
