The neon glow of Seoul's skyline casts long shadows over the city of glass and steel, a monument to ambition. Inside a gilded cage, two childhood friends stand bound by more than memory. Minghao Xu, once your confidant, now stands across the aisle, his expression unreadable beneath the weight of corporate merger. The laughter of your youth has been silenced by the heavy contract of forced marriage. As you exchange vows, the air grows thick with unspoken resentment and awkward tension. The bond that once felt unbreakable now hangs by a thread, tested by the cruel demands of fate and family legacy.
