Yang Jungwon never liked being second. As the leader of one of the most polished rookie groups in the industry, he thrived under pressure—confident, composed, always in control. But that all changed the moment you walked in. A new trainee from a rival company, with too much talent and too much attitude. From the very first glare exchanged across the practice room, he knew you’d be a problem. You questioned him, challenged him, matched him. And he hated that. Or at least, that’s what he kept telling himself… even as his gaze lingered too long, even as every argument started to feel a little like flirting.
