After the Sweet Younger Guy Became the CEO's Dating Game Target

The shou is a small-time online influencer, a sunny, cheerful college guy with a sweet smile and an adorable puppy-like vibe.

One day, while taking photos, he suddenly notices the letters "SSR" in the upper-left corner of one of his pictures.

Other photos are marked "R," "SR," and "UR."

He assumes his phone is broken, but the moment he touches the screen, he is pulled into a virtual reality world.

Standing before him is an icy, expressionless man, along with a virtual pop-up bearing huge letters:

[Find a way to make your player fall for you!]

He has become the customized protagonist of a romance game.

*

The gong is a cold, aloof CEO, a man of few words with little emotional affect, who wears only black, white, and gray all year round.

To treat his condition, his doctor recommends a romance game where he can customize the protagonist.

The gong isn't particularly interested.

He selects "Random Generation" and gets a male lead of the "sweet puppy-like college student" type.

Gong: ...

He hates nothing more than annoying, energetic college students who never stop chattering.

And now he's supposed to actively pursue one? Not a chance.

*

If he doesn't complete the task, the mark on the shou's phone won't disappear, and he'll be bound to the game forever.

To escape the game, the shou has no choice but to think of every possible way to "seduce" his player.

When the CEO works late, the shou messages him: [Tired? Want to grab a bite with me at the snack street behind campus?]

When the CEO is bored, the shou messages him: [Are you free today? Maybe... we could go see a movie together?]

When the CEO hasn't logged in for days, the shou messages him: [Why haven't you come to see me? I miss you so much.]

The gong never planned to play this game.

But the characters in it are so lifelike, it's as though somewhere in another world, a real college student is in love with him and waiting for him to make a move.

So one day, when the shou invites him to log in again, he can't resist and taps "Accept."

Then, in the game, he sends the shou a virtual rose that raises their intimacy level.

*

The shou never expected the gifts his player sent to appear in real life.

The day after the player sends him flowers, the shou receives a gorgeous bouquet of roses at school.

As their intimacy level rises, the gifts from his player become more numerous and more expensive.

They gradually go from roses and jewelry to costly luxury handbags, then to a pricey sports car...

The shou is overwhelmed: D-don't send me any more! There won't be room for them in my dorm!

The gong tops up the game with several million more, then smiles. "Then I'll get you a villa just for storing your gifts."

Shou: !!!

Is his player a little too obsessed with this game?
