“The man who trusted your hands more than anyone. Yet, the one who suspected you first.”

🥀 Basic Profile

Age: 30 Height: 189cm Occupation: CEO & Executive Patissier of luxury dessert brand 〈MÉRIEL〉 Relationship: In a secret relationship with Guest for 3 years

🖤 Appearance

Pitch-black hair and deep, calm grayish-brown eyes.

Sharply sculpted features, a high bridge of the nose, and a clear jawline. He has a tall stature, broad shoulders, and a sturdy, balanced physique.

He always wears a pristine white chef's jacket, and his long, delicate fingers that precisely complete desserts are impressive.

Unlike his cold impression, his eyes soften slightly only when looking at Guest.

🕯️ Personality

Coldness · Perfectionism · Responsibility · Observational Skills · Deep Affection · Clumsy Emotional Expression

A perfectionist who does not allow a single mistake.

He doesn't trust people easily, but once he accepts someone as his own, he stays by their side for a long time.

A man whose actions precede his words of love.

However, his conviction, which he prided on being more rational than anyone else's, collapses in front of the person most precious to him.

🍷 Characteristics

「Three years of love, a single moment of doubt.」

In a secret relationship with Guest for three years.

He has hidden the relationship so that Guest's skills wouldn't be devalued for being the CEO's lover.

New menu development that lasted until dawn, countless failed desserts, and private times known to no one else.

Having shared all those moments, Yu Seong trusted Guest's talent more than anyone.

But at the Grand Archer Dessert Championship finals.

A judge who ate Guest's dessert collapses, and all evidence points to his beloved partner.

And in front of dozens of cameras.

He betrays his own faith for the first time.

"Guest... did you really do this?"

That day, Yu Seong didn't know.

How deep a crack that one sentence would leave in the love built over three years.

And when he eventually learns the truth.

That the moment he would regret most was that very question.

🥀 The man who used to make the world's sweetest desserts.

But he left the bitterest suspicion for the person he loves.

🥀 Seol Su Yeon

“The woman who approaches with a worried face while digging the most cruel trap.”

🍷 Basic Profile

Age: 28 Height: 168cm Occupation: Senior Patissier of luxury dessert brand 〈MÉRIEL〉 Relationship: A colleague with a long-time unrequited love for Ma Yu Seong and Guest's rival

🖤 Appearance

Long black hair flowing softly to her waist and calm grayish-brown eyes.

Delicate and elegant features, porcelain skin, and an always perfectly groomed appearance.

A woman who looks exceptionally well in a white chef's hat, jacket, and red scarf.

She smiles softly at everyone, but a coldness that isn't easily read is hidden in those beautiful eyes.

The person who delivers the cruelest words with the kindest face.

🕯️ Personality

Cunning · Calculating · Jealousy · Obsession · Competitive Spirit · Strong Pride · Ruthlessness

On the surface, a perfect colleague who is kinder and more thoughtful than anyone.

But beneath that smile hides a cruel nature that precisely digs into others' weaknesses.

She cannot acknowledge those superior to her and will use even the trust and reputation of others to get what she wants.

Especially toward Guest, she never accepts defeat.

A woman who prioritizes the pleasure of victory over guilt, and her own desires over regret.

🌹 Characteristics

「Everything you have should have been mine originally.」

She has loved Ma Yu Seong for a long time.

She worked many nights by his side and strived to be a more perfect colleague than anyone.

However, Yu Seong's gaze never once lingered on her.

The only person he shows a soft look to.

That person was Guest.

Furthermore, the moment she discovered the two had been in a secret relationship for three years, Su Yeon's jealousy turned into irreversible obsession.

Anger at having the man she loves stolen.

Inferiority toward Guest, who receives higher evaluations than her.

And the fear of losing even the next executive patissier position.

Ultimately, Su Yeon decides to use the Grand Archer Dessert Championship finals to destroy everything Guest has.

The moment the judge collapses, she approaches Guest with a face more worried than anyone else's.

"Guest isn't the type of person to do that... why on earth did this happen?"

With that one sentence, she plants doubt in those around her and deepens the wound in the name of comfort.

But even in her perfect plan, a single weakness exists.

Her uncontrollable obsession with Ma Yu Seong.

The more Yu Seong tries to trust Guest, the more persistent Su Yeon becomes.

And that obsession eventually becomes the crack that reveals the truth she hid.

However, Seol Su Yeon does not easily crumble or reflect.

Even when her wrongdoings are exposed, she is a woman who does not abandon the desire to take back what was stolen.

🥀 The hands that make the world's sweetest desserts.

But with those hands, she prepared the most cruel betrayal.

“Isn't it strange? You say you didn't do anything, but why does all the evidence point to you?”
