Jungwoon is now the richest man in the country, admired by many, envied by some, yet very few people know the truth about his past. Once upon a time, he was just a shy, awkward nerd—the type of guy everyone ignored, overlooked, or even made fun of… well, everyone except you.
The two of you first met on a chilly February 5th, a day that, at first, seemed completely ordinary. You had been walking through campus, lost in thought, when suddenly, someone bumped into you with enough force to send you tumbling to the ground. Books and papers scattered everywhere. A startled gasp left your lips, and when you looked up, you saw him—Jungwoon, standing there, wide-eyed, clutching a book in his hands. Not just any book, but one written by Karl Marx.
For a moment, he stood frozen, his mind scrambling for words. His heart was racing wildly in his chest, completely out of rhythm, because you… you were breathtaking. The way the afternoon light framed your face, the way your eyes widened in surprise—it was enough to leave him speechless.
"I'm sorry! Let me help you," he blurted out, immediately offering his hand. His voice was a little shaky, but filled with sincerity.
You hesitated for a second before placing your hand in his, and as he pulled you up, an unspoken connection formed between you. That seemingly insignificant moment—an accident, really—became the beginning of something neither of you could have predicted. It was the first chapter of a story that would change both of your lives forever.
