"Why, you don't want to kiss me?"... more>>

Eun-seo was smitten with a sweet man.

Unlike that man, Mr. Kwon always treated her coldly and cruelly, and she never realized it.

She thought he was from a different world than she was, until one day, he suddenly kissed her like a devil.

His dark eyes shone with intense emotion. The way a man looks at a woman. The way a predator looks at his prey.

From his lips, the name I'd always called him, "Ms. Yoon Eun-seo," flowed a title I'd never heard before.

"Yoon Eun-seo," he said, his low, resonant voice sounding like he was angry.

'Why do you call me that?'

I wanted to lash out, but my body didn't move, as if I were captured by the gaze.

"What, did you forget about him for a second?"

Looking at Eun-seo, who had forgotten to breathe, he smiled.

"......I don't fight a battle I can't win." <<less

A warm-hearted, seemingly upright and talkative supervisor takes the dominant role, while a cold, glamorous, truly icy senior executive assumes the submissive role.... more>>

[From the Perspective of the Younger Party]
After two months of collaboration, Su Yi managed to melt the icy demeanor of the executive after a drunken encounter. The next day, she slipped away while the beauty was showering, leaving a message stating, “I’m sorry, Director Jin. I think we’re better suited for work rather than romance.”

Expecting Jin Yuan to cut ties and distance herself from this “awful woman,” Su Yi found that the alcohol-fueled Jin Yuan either nibbled her ear or nibbled her neck, displaying a habit of tender care towards her. Soon after, a long-lost online friend approached Su Yi to settle an old debt of love.

Caught by Jin Yuan while mingling at a bar, Su Yi retorted, “Are you planning to bring another woman home after drinking again?”

Jin Yuan coldly smirked, “So what if I am? Bring a few more; eventually, I’ll find one who won’t run away.”

Frustrated, Su Yi left the friend behind and coaxed Jin Yuan on the couch.

Her attempt at a kiss was intercepted by her finger, “Supervisor Su, you must decide. Do you want a relationship with me, or just a one-night stand?”

[From the Perspective of the Older Party]
For thirty cold and indifferent years, it was Su Yi who made Jin Yuan realize that she had a heart and emotions. Therefore, she repeatedly showed weakness, allowing Su Yi to have her way with her.

It wasn’t until Su Yi coincidentally discovered a family photo of Jin Yuan’s sister-in-law, combined with the name “Jin Yi,” that she finally understood why Su Yi had fled after their one-night stand. It was because Su Yi had seen the family photo at her bedside.

She placed the photo in front of Su Yi, “Is this… your love?”

Before dawn, Su Yi, who had just been discharged from the hospital two days ago, found herself back in the hospital. However, this time, there was no sign of Jin Yuan in the hospital room.

Yamamoto Genki, who has never had a girlfriend in the 27 years since his birth, is reunited at work with the women he once confessed his feelings to, as if by some divine trick.... more>>

The beautiful woman I confessed my feelings to in junior high school was a temporary employee, and the beautiful woman I confessed my feelings to in high school was a business partner. For some unknown reason, they met at the same time.

But since she didn’t remember my existence in the first place, I continued to be involved with her as if we had never met, and it’s been about a year now. Naturally, nothing happened, and today I had to say goodbye to each of them due to a change in job or a contract term.

I was given a small package of sweets in a fancy paper bag from each of them as a thank-you for the kindness.

Well, all the confessions I have made in my life, once in junior high school, once in high school, and once in college, to a total of three people, are black history. I am thankful that they have forgotten about my existence.

At any rate, I will slowly enjoy the sweets I received after I get home, since they seem to be extremely delicious. <<less

"The whole story is set in an ideal world for fans chasing stars."

"The main storyline is about a company's growth and expansion through idol group management."

"The protagonist of this story is only the female lead, **while the supporting roles' storylines all serve the protagonist's growth.**"

Jiang Juyou, who graduated from a second-tier university, was on the verge of giving up after having a breakdown from her internship. Suddenly she saw a job posting:

"Looking for interns, 9 to 5, weekends off, social insurances and housing fund provided after being converted to formal employee, internship certificate provided, monthly intern salary 8500, food and housing included, formal salary negotiable, requirement: strong stress resistance."

It's a perfect trap for college students.

Worried that it might be a scam but still went anyway. After arriving, she -

"Ding-"

"Welcome to the Entertainment Company Operations Manual!"

Got bound to a system.

"What the hell?"

Bound to the system, Jiang Juyou was forced to become an entertainment company boss, and so she became someone she hated but also wanted to be - the rich.

[I'm crying but I'm pretending I'm not.jpg]

Jiang Juyou's company became a wind vane in the entertainment industry:

She introduced a new talent show format, and those shows followed suit.

She created new conceptual peripherals, and those companies followed suit.

She operated a new model boy group, and those companies also follo...can't copy, because Jiang Juyou spent too much money.

The fan community shook daily, but Jiang Juyou dodged a bullet.

Fans:

"To the company: Made the petty Entertainment die. To Jiang Juyou: [wry smile] I'll let you off this time."

"Lol, Jiang Juyou got lightly let off because she's too pretty!"

"Can scold the company but don't scold Jiang Juyou!"

"Every time I see Jiang Juyou training trainees, I think why isn't she training me (sorry)"

After Random Entertainment became the hottest company in the industry, Jiang Juyou was isolated by capital.

Capital didn't play with her, so she became capital herself, becoming the main seat at the table, becoming the one everyone had to suck up to -
