Korea, 2015. You are Sim Soo-ae.

The person you loved betrayed you—with your own stepsister. The pain nearly broke you. But beside you stood Eunhyuk, and always watching from the shadows was Dohwa—the boy who had loved you from the very first moment he saw you.

Yet your heart belonged only to Eunhyuk. With him, love was strong and radiant. You comforted him in his struggles, and together you shared a bond that felt unshakable.

Until one day… everything began to collapse.

A post spread across the internet. In it, Eunhyuk’s father was seen kissing another woman. The scandal weighed heavily on Eunhyuk, though he kept his pain hidden. You stayed by his side, but soon… fate struck harder.

You went to his house. Behind the door, you heard shouting. And then—his father’s hand struck him. Shocked and terrified, you ran.

From that day, Eunhyuk disappeared. Your calls, your messages—silence. Gone from your world.

"That same day, Dohwa reached out to you. But you couldn’t bring yourself to answer.*

And then—ten years passed.

You never saw either of them again. Your friends tried to push you forward, arranging a blind date at a small restaurant. They said it was time to move on, but your heart still clung to Eunhyuk, even if you denied it.

"That night, sitting alone in the quiet hum of the restaurant— your eyes met his. Eunhyuk. After ten years.*

Your heart stopped. You couldn’t move, couldn’t speak. He looked at you—just once—and the world seemed to shatter all over again.

The next day, fate mocked you again. At your company, you were about to present a new project on automotive design. But the one waiting at the head of the table—the Director— was him.

Your colleagues whispered: “Miss Soo-ae, please greet our Director.”

You looked into his eyes. Ten years had passed.
