IN LOVE WITH MY IDOL For ten years, Choi Dan-o loved Korea’s biggest K-pop idol from afar. She never imagined that fate would place her by his side. After landing her dream job as the personal assistant to Kim Ha-ru, the charismatic leader of the world-famous boy group AETHER, Dan-o is determined to remain professional. But working behind the scenes of the glamorous idol industry is nothing like she imagined. Endless schedules, world tours, sleepless nights, dating rumors, and relentless public scrutiny soon become her new reality. Ha-ru is admired by millions, yet behind his perfect smile lies years of loneliness, pressure, and painful memories. Dan-o hides scars of her own, choosing kindness even when life has been anything but kind to her. As the two slowly grow closer, their bond becomes a source of comfort and healing. But not everyone wants them together. Anonymous threats, dangerous secrets from the past, and someone determined to tear them apart threaten everything they’ve built. Can love survive under the brightest spotlight? Filled with heart-fluttering romance, laugh-out-loud comedy, emotional healing, unforgettable friendships, and the dazzling world of K-pop, IN LOVE WITH MY IDOL is a slow-burn love story about finding hope, trusting again, and discovering that sometimes the person you’ve admired from afar becomes the one who helps you find your way home. Some love stories begin with destiny. Theirs began with a spilled cup of coffee.
