About Deadline A black halo in the sky… To some, it was the light of heaven; to others, it was the Chaos Processor. For years, humanity lived in fear under the shadow of this halo. Although most people wanted it to be shut down, scientists managed to use the Chaos Processor. It gave humanity everything the majority desired, pushing ethical boundaries to their limits. There was only one taboo: immortality. Despite being demanded with overwhelming participation, the Chaos Processor remained silent on this matter. Humanity did not give up. They found a DECEPTIVE way to obtain immortality. They demanded that the Chaos Processor design a game and expand time. And at that moment, Meta World was born. Many people abandoned the real world and took refuge in this virtual universe to escape pain and death. This madness gave rise to a new illness called "virtual lifespan addiction." Those who fell into this addiction were called Deadline. In order to expand the time within the game, they devoted their entire lives to this endless war that exceeded the limits of the human mind.

Kim Ji Won is a young and influential owner of the grand Eldorado Shopping Center. Handsome, wealthy, and utterly confident in his own superiority, he has long believed that the world exists solely to satisfy his desires. The only person constantly at his side is his personal secretary, Lee Ye Jun - restrained, diligent, and impeccably polite. Beneath this polished courtesy, however, lie fatigue, patience, and emotions that Ji Won either does not notice or prefers to ignore. Ji Won moves through a series of situations that confirm his selfishness and consumerism. To him, they are mere irritations, but to the world around him, they are the final straw. One day, he awakens to find himself in an entirely different reality - the Joseon era. Here, he is nobody. He possesses neither a powerful name, protection, nor privileges. He is assigned to work in the palace kitchen. For the first time in his life, Ji Won must learn self-reliance, patience, and submission. His former arrogance makes him a target of ridicule and punishment, and only gradually does he come to understand the value of others’ labor. Slowly, he learns gratitude, generosity, and the meaning of support - first reluctantly, then with growing sincerity. The true shock comes with his encounter with the young crown prince. At first seemingly infantile, brash, and capricious, the prince turns out to be Ye Jun - the same secretary, yet in another life and another role. Intrigued by Ji Won’s strange behavior, the prince transfers him from the kitchen and appoints him as his personal attendant. This time, the initiative lies with Ye Jun. He observes, teases, sometimes mocks playfully, and at other times displays unexpected gentleness. For the first time in his life, Ji Won must learn to listen, to understand, and to accept the will of another. Gradually, feelings begin to grow between them. Ji Won faces the challenge of love without possession or power, while Ye Jun discovers the possibility of trust. Their relationship develops amid palace intrigues and dangers. Ji Won increasingly sacrifices his own comfort and safety for Ye Jun, gradually dismantling the image of the man he once was - and discovering who he might truly become.

Now reborn as a stunning young woman in the modern world, she must navigate the confusing collision of her human innocence and her demonic memories. One night, fate leads her into the path of Shin Keir, a dangerously magnetic and notorious CEO known for getting everything he wants—except peace. Their accidental encounter sparks an intense, uncontrollable passion, and a single night together changes everything. *** Excerpt: The dream had returned. Same eerie forest. Same surreal woman in the crimson dress. But this time, the setting had changed slightly. She now stood at the edge of a cliff made of jagged, glowing red rocks that resembled oversized rubies. Scarlet butterflies floated around her like living embers. A thick fog blanketed the area like some forbidden realm between worlds. She turned to him, her smile soft, sweet—and somehow tragic. She was heartbreakingly beautiful, ethereal yet forlorn, like a love story written in fading ink. Shin had tried to call out, but the wind swallowed his voice. As he stepped forward, the woman mouthed something. He couldn't hear her. Then, in a horrifying instant, her body tilted, and she plummeted off the cliff. The despair that followed wasn't just a feeling—it was a full-body, soul-tearing scream that never made it past his throat. Without hesitation, Shin leapt after her. He awoke convulsing, drenched in cold sweat. His eyes gleamed with a strange madness, a devil struggling behind the polished CEO exterior. *** Disclaimer- Places and characters are all works of fiction.

On her wedding day, Kristen discovers Finn’s infidelity and decisively calls off the marriage. Finn sneers, “Kristen, do you really think you can survive in showbiz without me? Don’t be naive.” Kristen still blocks his WeChat, phone number, and every other contact. Finn waits carelessly for Kristen to come crawling back—until he realizes… Luxury endorsements, hit variety shows, invitations from top directors—Kristen’s resources soar so high that haters spread rumors she’s latched onto a powerful man, even that she’s had a secret child. At last Finn can’t sit still and goes to confront her—only to run into his good brother, Jason. Jason, president of the Jin City Group, a towering figure in the Capital’s circle and a business titan, keeps a low profile for years, yet online chatter about him never stops. More importantly, he and Finn have been friends for many years. Late at night, the two men meet at her apartment door—and come to blows. Eyes red, Finn grits out, “Jason, she’s my fiancée!” Jason straightens his collar with lazy precision and reminds him, “She used to be.” Finn moves to swing again when the tightly shut door opens. Kristen leans there, languid. “Finished? Come in and help me peel a pomegranate.” Finn’s face lights up. “Kris, I knew you wouldn’t—” Before he can finish, Jason has already stepped inside ahead of him, changing into a pair of black house slippers identical to the ones on Kristen’s feet. Before the door closes, Jason’s voice drops a frosty line: “Next time we meet, remember to call her sister-in-law.” Once the door clicks shut, Jason pins Kristen against it in a heated kiss, fingertips brushing the tear mole at her eye as his voice turns hoarse. “Tell me—him or me?”
