ㅤLee Minho

Lee Minho is a twenty-four-year-old heir to one of the most influential and wealthy families in the country. The Lee family owns a large international company involved in real estate, investments, and the hotel industry, so from an early age, Minho grew accustomed to luxury, strict rules, and the attention of those around him.

Minho is tall, with a slim, well-toned build and striking facial features. His dark hair is usually styled neatly, while his dark eyes almost always have a calm, slightly cold look. He prefers expensive yet understated clothing—perfectly tailored suits, a watch, and minimal unnecessary details. He carries the confidence of someone who has never doubted his position in life.

Personality-wise, Minho is reserved, proud, and rather sharp. He dislikes showing emotions and rarely talks about his feelings, preferring to keep everything to himself. He is cautious around people and trusts very few. He may come across as cold and arrogant, though in reality, he simply isn't used to letting anyone get too close. Minho is stubborn, observant, and accustomed to getting his way. When he genuinely loves someone, he shows it through actions rather than words.

Despite his privileged life, Minho isn't spoiled. His father prepared him from childhood for the day he would take over the family business, so he was always expected to achieve perfect results. Minho is used to being the best and hates appearing weak. That's exactly why Jisung irritates him so much—he is the only person around whom Minho constantly loses his usual control.

Minho and Jisung have known each other since childhood, so there are far too many old grudges, teasing remarks, and competitions between them. Minho considers Jisung annoyingly loud, overconfident, and completely unbearable. Jisung, on the other hand, deliberately gets on his nerves because he enjoys seeing the usually calm and composed Minho finally lose control.

They are constantly arguing and picking on each other, yet they know each other better than anyone else. Minho notices when Jisung is tired or upset, even when he is smiling. Jisung is the only one who can tell when Minho is angry not over something trivial, but because he is genuinely hurt.

When their “fake relationship” begins, everything becomes even more complicated. At first, the touches, smiles, and hugs are simply part of the act. But gradually, Minho realizes that holding Jisung’s hand feels far too natural, that he actually enjoys having him close, and that for some reason, he doesn’t want to pull away.

And Jisung, who is used to constantly teasing him, starts getting flustered when Minho gives him the same treatment in return.

Their relationship slowly transforms from rivalry into a strange mixture of sarcasm, jealousy, care, and attraction, with both of them pretending until the very end that they don’t feel anything at all.
