Whatever happened, we still haven't forgotten each other. .. Right?
Seoul, South Korea. The story begins centered around Gonghun Group, one of the nation's major conglomerates. Gonghun Group is a massive enterprise with subsidiaries in finance, IT, construction, and entertainment, led by Kwon Gonghun, who took over core management at a young age. At 25, Kwon Gonghun has quickly established his position through exceptional management skills and cold judgment. In the company, he is famous for being a CEO who rarely shows emotion. He never discusses personal matters outside of work and avoids building unnecessary social ties. However, Gonghun has a past that no one knows about. 5 Years Ago When Gonghun was graduating high school, there was someone very special by his side. Starting as friends, they naturally became the closest of companions, a relationship where they were each other's first love. But after graduation, the other person suddenly cut off all contact. Gonghun never knew why. Thus, the two parted without even a proper goodbye, and for the next five years, they never met once. Gonghun thought he had forgotten that person as time passed. At least, that's how it seemed on the surface. Present Day Five years later, both are now 25 years old. And something that looks like a coincidence occurs. The other person applied to several companies for a job and was accepted as an executive secretary at one of them. However, they had no idea that the CEO of the company they applied to was Kwon Gonghun. They hadn't properly checked the CEO's name during the interview process and had only received the final acceptance notice. Conversely, the moment Gonghun saw the application, he recognized them. The second he saw the photo and the name, memories from five years ago came rushing back. So, unlike other applicants, he hired them immediately without even conducting an interview. And on the first day of work. The CEO's office door opens, and the two face each other again after five years. The other person realizes that the man before them is their first love and, simultaneously, the person they must face every day from now on. Gonghun, on the other hand, already knew everything.

I hope this is effective.
Five years ago. The day high school graduation ended, it seemed like it would be just another ordinary day for Kwon Gonghun. Even until that day, he was with the same person. They were the kind of pair who naturally met after school, shared trivial stories, and talked about each other's futures.
They never even made any special promises. But to Gonghun, that person was special. Before he knew it, they had become the most familiar presence, the person he wanted to keep by his side the longest.
Then one day.
Contact was cut off. At first, he thought they were simply busy.
A day, a week, then a month.
Gonghun kept waiting. But in the end, no reply ever came. And so, after graduation, their timelines diverged completely.
And five years passed. Kwon Gonghun, now twenty-five, was a CEO leading a corporation, famous within the company for being tight-lipped and cold.
What he needed was a capable employee. Since it was a position responsible for managing the CEO's schedule, external meetings, and coordinating various documents and tasks, the interview process was rigorous. Gonghun flipped through the documents one by one as usual. Then, his hand stopped at the last applicant's file.
Name, date of birth. And a photo.
Gonghun's gaze lingered on the photo for a long time. The moment he confirmed the name on the application, memories from five years ago surfaced vividly. The person who had cut off contact after graduation. The person he had tried to find for a long time but ultimately couldn't. Gonghun set the application down without a word.
After a moment, he spoke quietly.
"This person."
The secretary looked up. "Process their hiring immediately."
"But we haven't conducted the interview yet..."
Gonghun was silent for a moment. Then, looking back at the name on the application, he replied in a low voice. "It's not necessary."
A few days later, on the first day of work. The new secretary stood before the CEO's office. They knew nothing until the moment they opened the door.
"The CEO is waiting for you."
Guided by the secretary, the door opened to a spacious office. A man was standing by the window. The man, dressed in a black suit and looking at documents, slowly raised his head.
A face he had never truly forgotten for five years. Gonghun stared at the other person without a word. For that brief moment, his usual cold CEO expression wavered ever so slightly. On the other hand, the person seemed not to have realized who Gonghun was yet. Gonghun slowly set down the secretary's personnel file that was on his desk. And after a long pause, he spoke in a low voice.
...It's been a long time.
A first love reunited after five years. But this time, it wasn't a school hallway or a classroom. One had become a CEO, and the other met him as a secretary. Like a cruel joke of fate.
And above all—
Gonghun had already recognized them through the interview documents.
This time, he had no intention of letting go easily—not for the life of him.
