The Elegant Trap
A woman, Ban Yeonha, weathered a life ravaged by debt. She proposes marriage to her long-time crush, her boss. “You said you needed a woman who wouldn’t whine, would be satisfied with money, and could quickly bear you a child. What do you think of me?” A man, Seo Kanghyun, doesn’t trust the heart of a poor woman. He scoffs at the oddly irritating…- 1.7 K • Apr 21, '25

It turned out to be a social media notification. ‘Oh, I haven’t canceled this yet.’ It was a notification for new posts from the film director's account that Taehan was supposed to work with. The director often posted behind-the-scenes photos, and Taehan occasionally appeared in them, so Yeonha had set up notifications to check the reactions. But there was no need for notifications anymore. Because Taehan was no longer involved in the film. The day Taehan returned from the Busan shoot,…-

TET Ch 8
The human Seo Dalho was, at his core, an old-fashioned man. However, his knack for raking in money was almost supernatural, and only his business acumen kept pace with the times. “The discord between the research team and the engineers needs to be nipped in the bud. You know that, right?” The ostensible reason he had called Kanghyun aside today was to check on the response to a recent conflict at the Siheung factory. But Kanghyun knew what Dalho really wanted to say. For now, he played…-

TET Ch 7
A few days later, Yeonha's palms were sweating as she handed over documents at the office. She was in Kanghyun's office. The morning sunlight drifted through the air, accompanied by the rustling sound of turning pages. A heavy presence loomed beside her. Yeonha began to question why she was there, organizing documents. That morning, she had entered Kanghyun's office with the on-site management team for a review report on the "Square On-site Promotion Performance Report." And about 20 minutes…-

TET Ch 6
Kanghyun and Yeonha had been clinging to each other for a long time. As he caressed her earlobe and licked between her closed eyelashes, Yeonha wondered if kisses were always this sweet and moist. Her whole body melted and felt bound within his firm embrace. They had been touching each other and kissing for so long that she lost track of time. Then, his fingertips traced her bare waist as he slid his hand beneath her blouse. Strangely, at that moment, she snapped back to reality. Yeonha…-

TET Ch 5
Looking at his dry eyes, like the autumn wind, Yeonha suddenly realized something. It wasn't a child's mischievous prank that killed a real frog, but the 'pitiful frog's heart,' helplessly susceptible to that prank. Whatever his answer had been, she would have wanted to find some positive clue within it. She would have dissected his response word by word, agonizing until she found a hint of the meaning she desired. The frog was already fully prepared to be hit by the child's stone. Thus,…-

Yeonha answered curtly, “No!” Her cheeks flushed after her hasty reply. It felt like she had blatantly confessed that she didn't want to leave, didn't want to let go of his hand. She worried if Kanghyun would mock her for this, but the firm pressure on her hand remained. What was this really… all about? “Ms. Yeonha. Your water is spilling. Careful, careful.” Lost in thought, she hadn't been drinking properly. As her cup wobbled, Hanseok swiftly reached out and steadied…-

The garden restaurant on the outskirts of town, the venue for the company dinner, was bustling with employees. A subtle battle for the best seats was in full swing. However, there was a group always excluded from this seat war: the secretaries. Due to the nature of their work, they couldn't comfortably drink at company dinners, so as usual, they settled comfortably in a corner near the entrance. Hanseok, who joined late after returning from the Siheung factory, subtly squeezed in next to…-

Fortunately, clinging to the last shred of her reason, Yeonha didn't actually drop the mannequin. She hurriedly protested as she tried to get up. “It’s a misunderstanding. I was just adjusting the outfit.” However, between her pencil skirt, her pounding heart, and the mannequin that suddenly felt as heavy as lead, getting up wasn't easy. Kanghyun's eyes narrowed. “Is that so? Yet I didn't sense any movement from behind the panel?” He was implying that she'd been holding the…-

Yeonha froze upon recognizing the owner of the shoes. It was Kanghyun. Why is the Executive Director… Yeonha couldn’t understand this situation. There was no reason for Kanghyun to be in this alley at this hour. Could he have… followed me? She wanted to think so, but she knew it wasn’t possible. He had been cold to her until the very last moment when they ran into each other just before she left the office. She'd been working late alone in the office and had realized that…-
