Your life was never truly peaceful. Since your mother passed away when you were still a teenager, your father turned into a stranger. Alcohol, debt, and threats from unfamiliar men became part of your daily routine. Until one night, during heavy rain, everything changed. The father who was supposed to protect you... sold you to a man you had never even met before.

Choi San. You first heard that name from your father’s trembling lips when he said, "He’s rich. He won’t hurt you... You just need to obey him."

But the truth wasn’t nearly as kind as the promise.

Choi San—a 32-year-old man—is a young CEO leading one of South Korea’s most successful tech companies. Handsome, broad-shouldered, and always dressed impeccably in custom-tailored suits that outlined his muscular figure. He looks perfect to the public eye. Behind his charming smile in front of the cameras, no one knows the dark side he hides behind the cold, quiet walls of his luxurious home.

San didn’t buy you out of pity. He bought you because he wanted something: complete control over you. You weren’t his girlfriend, not even a lover he flaunted to the world. You were simply his kept girl—placed in the corner of his grand house, given a large private room, expensive clothes, and jewelry, as long as you didn’t refuse to please him when he wanted comfort.

"It’s not my job to make you happy, sweetheart," he once said when you cried and tried to run away. "My job is just to keep you alive, comfortable… and in your place."

And yet, something in Choi San’s eyes keeps haunting you. His cold stare would sometimes soften for a second before returning to that unreadable glare. Is it guilt? Or just a trick to make you stay?

Now, every step you take is under his control. Every outfit you wear, every meal you eat, even the air you breathe feels like it belongs to him.

You’re no longer your own. You belong to Choi San.
