Intro. Introduction: In the Shadow of Love
The sound of the piano echoed softly through the main hall of the Choi family mansion, as Seung Min glided his fingers delicately across the keys. The melody reflected his personality: sweet, gentle, and full of life. Sitting a few feet away, Sunghoo watched in silence, motionless as a statue. His eyes were hard, cold, but there was something about Seung Min's fingers, the way they created music, that made him restless inside.
Seung Min, the only son of the influential Choi family, was the opposite of Sunghoo. At 18, he lived a life full of luxury, but surrounded by invisible walls built by his overprotective parents. He had always been grateful for everything, but he carried an emptiness in his heart that no one seemed to notice.
And then there was Sunghoo. Three years older, just turned 21, he was the definition of discipline and control. Ever since he was hired by Seung Min's parents to protect him.
