After five long years since aespa's debut, SM Entertainment is finally ready to unveil its newest girl group. But even before their official debut, the group's leader has already found herself the focus of an intense, watchful gaze-one that isn't nearly as discreet as its owner seems to think. And so it begins-a tangled dance of stolen glances and whispered secrets. The leader, determined to protect her dreams, finds herself ensnared in a web of desire she can't escape. And he, drawn by a force he doesn't fully understand, risks everything for a love neither of them saw coming. "You're literally making heart eyes, you know that right?" "I know. And I'm doing it on purpose, sunshine." idol!au ; lee haechan (nct) Book 1 in YOU seriesAll Rights Reserved
