    Summary

    Rumi and Jinu have been rivals since the moment they stepped into Hanseong Academy’s halls. She’s the relentless overachiever with perfect notes and flawless essays; he’s the effortlessly brilliant top scorer who acts like he barely tries. Every test and every teacher’s praise turns into another reason to outdo the other.

    To everyone else, they’re oil and water — snide comments, eye-rolls, and the occasional heated argument in the middle of class. But when a late-night study session in the library escalates into something unexpected, Rumi and Jinu strike a deal:
    Keep their rivalry public, but privately, they’ll allow themselves the relief and release neither can admit they want.

    What begins as a strictly “no strings” arrangement — a distraction becomes harder to ignore when little moments slip through. The way Jinu remembers how she takes her coffee. The way Rumi secretly saves a seat for him at the back of the lecture hall. The way their “accidental” brushes of hands feel less and less accidental.

    With their reputations on the line, they both have to ask themselves: are they still rivals pretending to be nothing more, or has the game shifted into something neither of them knows how to control?

    Summary

    HUNTR/X and Saja Boys are rivals—trading chart wins, throwing shade in interviews, and fueling one of the fiercest fan wars in K-pop.

    So, when Rumi, HUNTR/X’s leader, is told she’ll be performing a duet with Jinu, Saja Boys’ frontman, it feels like a punishment more than an opportunity. He’s arrogant, insufferable, and she hasn’t forgotten the night he humiliated her on live TV with a single mocking line.

    But, the industry doesn’t care about grudges. It cares about numbers, and Rumi and Jinu together promise the biggest stage of the year. Forced into rehearsals side by side, their voices collide—sometimes clashing, sometimes blending in ways neither of them can ignore.

    As the music builds, so does the truth: somewhere between rivalry and harmony, something deeper begins to take shape. And no matter how hard Rumi tries to fight it, every note seems to draw her closer to him.

    Summary

    [You have 365 days to debut… or die]

    That’s what the screen said.

    Not wake up and try again, not find your path, not even live.
    Just debut…or disappear.

    Jinu never asked for a second chance.
    He wasn’t looking to rewrite the past.
    Not after what he did.
    Not after who he became.

    And yet, here he was… alive, somehow, in a body too young to carry his sins, in a world that moved three years behind his last memory.
    A world where she might still exist.
    A world where he was just a stranger again.

    The rules are simple.
    Debut. Rise. Win.
    Or vanish forever.

    This time, without powers.
    Without allies.
    Without her.

    But he still has one thing.
    The need to see her again

    Rumi never really noticed how tall Jinu was—until she did. One realization leads to another, and soon, she can’t stop wanting all of him.
