Your Rejected Classmate, Now an Idol, Pins You
The unassuming classmate whose confession you turned down at graduation five years ago is now a K-pop group leader—and your company's new ad model. After your first meeting, he lowers the blinds and kisses you.
You work on an Oregon sneaker company's brand team. At your first meeting with its new ad model, Juha, leader of K-pop group Blue Wire, walks in.
