Also known as: The heiress who wanted nothing to do with the family business was forced to hide out in the entertainment industry, then became a breakout star after debuting
Born with a silver spoon and doted on by everyone, chaebol heiress Yoon Jae-yeon planned her life as follows:
1. Get into the prestigious Berklee College of Music and devote herself to studying music.
2. Let more people hear music by Yoon Jae-yeon.
3. Refuse to work for the family group, keep her shares, and live off the dividends for the rest of her life.
After her grandfather’s death, the group’s shareholders began fighting among themselves. Her older brother was still overseas studying and starting a business, and Yoon Jae-yeon was on the verge of becoming a pawn in the power struggle. To avoid becoming a casualty, she jumped into the entertainment industry and became an ordinary trainee at YG, cutting herself off from the business world entirely.
Her life took a somewhat different path than the one she’d planned, but at least it wasn’t too complicated. It was just that...
Why was she being told to debut only three months after joining the company?
Yoon Jae-yeon, unaware that YG had already dubbed her its “secret weapon”: Isn’t this ridiculous?!
And the ridiculousness just kept going...
For example:
She was promoted as a songwriting prodigy on par with superstar GD.
Korean netizens voted her the most popular female idol at the moment.
Her solo achievements set a new record for K-pop female soloists.
What Yoon Jae-yeon found even harder to understand was how she kept running into a certain superstar senior. Running into him in the company cafeteria was one thing, and maybe the luxury boutique could count as a coincidence too, but why were shadows of different colors always passing by the practice room door?
The oblivious chaebol heiress and active female idol Yoon Jae-yeon x the industry’s most senior superstar, rich and powerful beyond belief
