It's July 2023. IVE hasn't been in the best place recently. Their last release, I've IVE, was a success. It made waves. It made the charts. But it didn't stick for very long. Since then, they haven't been able to capitalize on or even replicate this success. Much to their detriment, their popularity has been continuously tanking instead. So the IVE girls go on a break. Peaceful. Relaxing. Supposedly uneventful. Until they begin sinking through the cracks of their own psyche.

After days of emotional weight, chaos, and complicated truths, Ben and Yeji finally get a moment that belongs only to them. With no crisis, no teasing, and no one else pulling them in another direction, their intimacy becomes something softer and more deliberate: a reminder that Ben does not only want Yeji when the world pushes him toward her, but simply because she is Yeji
