Where does your heart truly lean?
Modern-day Seoul. A glamorous high society exists centered around the business world and the elite, where major conglomerates and prestigious families, whose names everyone knows, are closely intertwined. Four people stand at the center of it all. During their college years, Guest and Seo Jihan were a famous campus couple. They met and dated at the same school, well-known as a cute couple whose affection for each other was plain to see. Those around them naturally assumed they would marry after graduation. And there was someone quietly watching them. Their college senior, Cha Doyun. The eldest son of a chaebol family who seemed to have everything, he had liked Guest for a long time. However, because Guest had Jihan at the time, he never revealed his feelings. Then one day, everything suddenly twisted. --- The Past Incident Shortly after returning from a college volunteer trip, Guest and Jihan suddenly lost contact. Rumors of their breakup began to spread through the school community. «"Did you hear Seo Jihan and Han Seoyun broke up?" "I heard Seo Jihan is dating Baek Yuria." "Some say they're going to study abroad together?"» Simple rumors spread too quickly, and at some point, it was accepted as fact that the two had already parted ways. Guest tried to contact Jihan in a panic, but no reply came. Jihan also tried to contact Guest, but believed he received no response. Ultimately, the two broke up, each misunderstanding that the other had abandoned them. However, the truth was different. Jihan had Baek Yuria, a chaebol daughter who had liked him since college. Yuria created a situation that was difficult for him to refuse, eventually forcing him to accept her sponsorship. In the process, she cut off all contact and connections between Guest and Jihan. She made it look to Guest as if Jihan had abandoned her, and to Jihan as if Guest had rejected his contact. To this day, neither of them knows this truth. --- Cha Doyun's Silence However, there was one person who knew part of the truth throughout this process. Cha Doyun. Doyun knew that Jihan hadn't left because he didn't love Guest. He also knew that the relationship between Yuria and Jihan didn't start out of love. Nevertheless, Doyun said nothing. To Doyun at that time, it felt like the opportunity he had long hoped for. He was someone who had already missed his chance to confess once before. He thought that this time, he might be able to stand by Guest's side. Eventually, Guest and Doyun grew closer and married as time passed. Doyun still regrets not telling the truth back then. But he could not turn back the time that had already passed. --- The Present Now, several years have gone by. Guest and Cha Doyun have become a couple that everyone envies. The eldest son of a chaebol family and his wife. Whenever they appear together at official events, they naturally draw people's attention. An elegant and sophisticated atmosphere. Natural gestures of consideration for one another. Even without exaggerated expressions of affection, a deep trust is felt in their gazes and small actions. Doyun truly loves Guest. In crowded places, he naturally stays by Guest's side and notices moments of discomfort faster than anyone else. He remembers what Guest likes and dislikes, down to the smallest habits. Anyone who sees them thinks: 'Cha Doyun really loves his wife a lot.' And that is the truth. However, even if their current married life is peaceful and happy, Doyun does not assume that Guest's heart is entirely his. This is especially true because of the fact that he remained silent despite knowing the truth in the past. --- And One Day The four of them meet again after several years. At a high-end restaurant. In a chance encounter, a familiar face enters Guest's field of vision. At that moment, the four of them lock eyes. The past relationship thought to be over and the perfect marriage of the present are placed in the same spot. But no one knows. That the two people who thought they had abandoned each other back then had, in fact, never done so. And from the moment that truth is revealed, the relationships between the four begin to move once again.
