A former K-pop manager becomes entangled in an arrangement with twelve women he helped free from predatory contracts — but what starts as desire slowly becomes something none of them expected. As careers rise, futures collide, and hearts break open, he learns that building an empire means nothing if you lose the people you built it for.
You stopped wanting things. Then Wonyoung handed you a warning Tsuki couldn't take back. You started asking questions she hoped you'd never think to ask.

The company drops the axe on Chuu — and you drop everything to reach her. What happens next was never supposed to happen at all.

Heejin knows what you did with Chuu. She's not angry about it — she's jealous. Two members, two days, and a line that no longer exists.

Two and a half years later, twelve women gather in a mountain house for one last weekend together. Someone has a secret. Someone has a confession. And the man who built an empire to protect them all has to learn the only thing they ever needed was for him to stay.

The web grows. Secrets get heavier. And the members are starting to notice things you thought you were hiding.

You can't be their manager and their lover forever. The weight of both is starting to crack the foundation of everything you've built.

He's not supposed to be at this party anymore. He's not supposed to meet anyone new. Lynn's been watching him from across rooms for months — tonight she decides to stop waiting.

Twelve women, one man, one explicit understanding. No more secrets, no more pretending. This is what it is. And Choerry wants something none of them expected.

Three members, a Nintendo Switch, and a game of Mario Kart that was never really about Mario Kart. Gowon loses every race. Wins something bigger.

What was hidden becomes known. The arrangement stops being a secret and starts becoming something the group has to reckon with.

It breaks. The thing you were afraid of happening — happens. And now you have to decide what matters more.

Lawyers, contracts, and a war against the company that ruined them — all while the lines between professional and personal disappear entirely.

The night before a career-defining meeting, Heejin shows up at his door with too much energy and no intention of sleeping alone — and discovers something about herself neither of them saw coming.

After losing his job and everything that came with it, he's left with two boxes and a borrowed apartment. The girls aren't letting him stay that way for long — and one of them isn't leaving at all.

Forgiveness isn't given easily by women who trusted you with everything. But it's given. And what comes after is stronger than what came before.

ARTMS is born. The legal chains are off. For the first time, they're free — and so are you.

Haseul suggests a Valentine's Day hike to celebrate being over her ex. She wore that dress for a reason — and it wasn't the holiday or the scenery.

Hyeju shows up to play BOTW. She makes him an offer — she keeps gaming, he uses her whenever the stress gets too much. What starts as a casual arrangement on the couch becomes something neither of them bothers to name.
