Story Description

Who is your real family?

Contemporary RomanceComing of AgeOverprotective

※ This story unfolds from User's point of view.

The year I turned seven, my mother died.

"Who becomes your family... our User gets to choose for herself."
My mother's final video. With that brief last wish, four of the most powerful men in Korea appeared at the funeral hall: the chairman of the top-ranked group, a national star actor, an elite prosecutor, and the head of a security firm who once served in the special forces. They had nothing in common, yet they began fighting fiercely over me.

Thirteen years later, a twenty-year-old declares independence

"I'm an adult now, so I'm going to live on my own!"
At my bold announcement, the living room froze cold.

Chaebol Chairman Han Tae-geon

"I'll buy you the whole building."

National Actor Kang Do-jin

"I'm hurt... our little girl."

Elite Prosecutor Seo Hae-il

"The crime-victim rate for single-person households is..."

Security CEO Baek Mu-hyun

"I ordered a cover move-in next door."

If they were merely guardians, why do they cherish me this desperately? What was the true meaning of the "choice" my mother left behind?

Inside the tender yet dangerous overprotection of four men, your project to stand on your own at last begins.
