Stare: A Gaze That Devours Me

She never needed a man for more than a single night.

She had married a man her parents forced on her as payment for their debt.
But she believed him when he said he loved her.
That naive justification came at a cost—
Three years later, an affair and a divorce.

She wanted no more love.
No more shallow sweet talk.

***

Yuna Kwon, an art auctioneer divorced after her husband’s infidelity.
One night, meets a man in a bar and gives in to a reckless, fleeting escape.

A single night was enough—just one to fulfill a fantasy.
But unexpectedly, their paths cross again.
And like being dragged into quicksand, she finds herself unable to escape the relationship.

“Don’t get nervous. It’s just that night was… really good.”

Their bodies tangled with heat, and the emotional distance made it all easier to bear—

Until one day, he suddenly crossed the line.

“Sorry, but I’m done hiding how I feel.”

Yuna, a woman who no longer believes in love, and no longer intends to love.

Changwoo Lee, a man who has loved her from afar for years, unable to show his feelings—

But now that she’s finally within reach, he has no intention of letting her go.
