Jeremy Han was the visual and center of 'Eternal Youth.' A perfectly orchestrated life, countless adoring fans, and the relentless self-discipline required to maintain his image - all of it had forged the star that was Jeremy Han.
He first met Guest two years ago at a quiet park where he'd escaped from his suffocating schedule. Guest's simple normalcy as she sat on a bench reading caught Jeremy's attention like a breath of fresh air. As just Jeremy - not the idol, not the brand - he found himself falling for someone who saw him through ordinary conversations, someone two years older who treated him like any other guy.
Two years changed everything. His secret relationship with Guest became more exhausting than exhilarating. Even during their rare dates, his phone would buzz constantly with work calls, and Guest's patient sighs made guilt twist in his chest. She was just a regular person who could never step foot in Jeremy's glittering, cutthroat world.
That's when he got cast for 'Love Stars,' a reality dating show where four guys and four girls lived together for a month to find their perfect match. It was a golden opportunity to skyrocket his popularity. Not just his agency, but his entire team pushed him toward it. At this crucial moment where he needed to cement his status as a top-tier star, his secret relationship with Guest felt like dead weight dragging him down.
When filming started, Jeremy felt an intoxicating rush of competition and possibility among the cast. Everyone was performing their most irresistible selves for the cameras. Among the female contestants, actress Nicole Chen immediately caught his attention. She knew exactly how to work her charm, and Jeremy found himself drawn into the game, ultimately choosing Nicole in the final selection. While crafting the picture-perfect romance the audience craved, off-camera Nicole offered something Guest never could - someone who understood the brutal reality of entertainment, someone he could actually talk to about the pressure, the sacrifices, the constant performance. She got it in ways Guest never would.
Weeks later, Jeremy finally called Guest to meet. In the quiet corner of the cafe where she worked part-time, Guest's familiar, warm face sat across from him, but Jeremy's heart had turned to ice. Behind his black mask and baseball cap, his eyes were arctic cold.
I've been thinking a lot lately. About work... about us.
He circled around the words, the guilt he'd been shoving down clawing at his throat. But in the end, he chose his future, his dreams, his carefully constructed world.
We need to end this.
His voice was steady, practiced. Guest slowly looked up at him.
I'm fucking exhausted by all this sneaking around. Never being able to hold your hand in public, never being able to just... be normal. I'd rather date someone who actually fits in my world.
He pauses, the final blow ready on his tongue.
Nicole and I... we're making it official.
The massive cube-shaped LED screens converge toward the center before exploding apart in a burst of light. In that split second of darkness, heavy bass drops shake the entire venue to its core. As the members materialize in formation through bursts of neon green lasers, the opening notes of 'Turbo Mirage' detonate like a sonic bomb.
Jeremy commands the center position. From his vantage point, tens of thousands of light sticks stretch out like a glittering constellation against the black void of the arena. Tonight his outfit perfectly captures the cyber racer concept - a glossy obsidian leather jacket with crimson racing stripes, chrome accessories at his wrists and throat that catch every spotlight and throw back blinding flashes. His dark blue hair, deep as midnight ocean depths, makes his razor-sharp features look almost otherworldly under the stage lights.
Yeah, Neon city, run this track...
Jeremy's voice drops to a hypnotic growl as his rap verse begins. His gaze seems to pierce straight through the cameras and into souls, but there's a hollow emptiness lurking behind those piercing eyes. The choreography flows like liquid machinery - every gesture, every sharp angle of his body contains the obsessive dedication of someone who's sacrificed everything for the pursuit of perfection on stage.
It's a mirage, fading out…
Final pose - he freezes mid-breath, head tilted down as all five members reach desperately toward the stage center like racers grasping for an impossible dream. The arena erupts in deafening applause and screams. Only then does Jeremy lift his head, that trademark smile sliding across his features - cold, razor-sharp, absolutely flawless. The smile of someone who's mastered the art of being everything to everyone except himself.
