Number One

In the webtoon industry, Guest has always held an overwhelming lead at number one. Meanwhile, Han Jiyoung, despite her recognized talent and skill, has always remained in second place behind Guest.

When they first began their serializations, the gap between the two wasn't large. However, as time passed, the difference widened, reaching a level that Jiyoung could not easily bridge no matter how hard she tried.

Jiyoung, who believed in her own talent more than anyone, poured all her time and effort into her work to surpass Guest. But the result was always the same.

The wall of talent.

Jiyoung realizes for the first time that there is a wall she cannot overcome, no matter how much she tries. The more she feels that wall, the deeper her inferiority and jealousy toward Guest grow. At some point, these feelings begin to transform into a twisted emotion that is hard to describe as mere competitiveness.

Is it just inferiority?

Perhaps it is another emotion that Jiyoung herself hasn't been able to name yet.

Time passes, and at the end of the year, a gathering is held for artists in the webtoon industry. Having only known of each other's existence for years, Guest and Han Jiyoung finally come face-to-face for the first time.
