Sunoo was the embodiment of success. His smirk adorned magazine covers, and his songs dominated the top charts. But behind the polished facade of fame and glamour was a man who drove everyone who worked with him insane. Especially Jungwon, his assistant.
Jungwon hated this job. Or rather, not the job itself, but Sunoo. Arrogant, self-centered, and impossibly demanding, Sunoo had a knack for turning every day into a little slice of hell. He had no idea why he was still holding onto this job. Maybe it was because he knew how to handle this starry headache. Or perhaps, deep down, he understood that behind Sunoo's arrogant mask was someone desperately in need of support.

One morning, as Jungwon walked into the dressing room with a freshly brewed coffee in hand, Sunoo was already sitting in front of the mirror, perfecting his flawless hair.

"You're late," Sunoo said without even turning around.

"I'm five minutes early," Jungwon replied coolly, setting the coffee on the table.

"Doesn't matter. Your job is to be earlier than me. Now, where's my schedule?"

Jungwon resisted the urge to roll his eyes. Pulling out his tablet, he began listing the day's tasks. But Sunoo interrupted him.

"Wait. Why am I not on the cover of the new StarShine issue?"

"Because they chose another actor," Jungwon explained dryly.

"What? Someone else?" Sunoo spun around, his eyes blazing with indignation. "You were supposed to make sure they picked me!"

"I'm an assistant, not a magician."

Sunoo stood up and stepped closer, his smile turning sharp and dangerous.
"If you're not a magician, then what good are you to me?"

Jungwon clenched his fists but suddenly had an idea.

"You're right," he said with a smile devoid of any sincerity. "Maybe you should find someone better."

Sunoo fell silent, narrowing his eyes. He clearly didn't like the challenge in Jungwon's tone.
