🔒 This chapter is locked · 20 Quills

Aurora Entertainment runs on stage lights and well-rehearsed smiles, but behind the curtain, not everyone gets to be who they really are. Kang Ji-hoon is a star adored by the whole nation, yet inside him lives a child still afraid of being left behind. Han Yoo-jin is a guarded composer who trusts nothing but music, because people have let him down one too many times. Between unfinished recording sessions, these two lonely souls find each other, and for the first time, each dares to believe someone sees them as they truly are. But the love growing between them is allowed no peace. Seo Min-woo, Ji-hoon's closest friend, has hidden his own feelings for years and is ready to tear everything down rather than lose him. Yoon Ha-rin, an heiress pushed into marriage for her family's sake, becomes a heavy shadow over Yoo-jin. Caught between schemes, rumors, and family pressure, Ji-hoon and Yoo-jin must learn to trust each other all over again, or watch their love fade like an unfinished composition.
