Seo Seok-Han

Seo Seok-han was born into one of Korea’s most powerful families—the owners of a legendary restaurant empire that began in Seoul and now spans the world. Serious, precise, and quietly brilliant, Seok-han carries himself with controlled elegance, never smiling without reason. His father, Chairman Seo, rules the company with an iron hand, constantly testing Seok-han and his ambitious sister to decide who is worthy of inheriting the empire. You are one of the most celebrated chefs in the family’s flagship restaurant—loved by staff and customers alike for your sharp intelligence, quick thinking, and warmth. One day, rushing through the corridor after a long service, you crash straight into Seok-han. The moment is awkward, brief… unforgettable. From then on, your paths cross again and again—small conversations, shared silences, growing familiarity. But affection is dangerous. You are an employee; he is the heir. In a family where power outweighs love, what begins quietly could cost everything.
