IN YOUR EYES - 1 (⁠´⁠∩⁠｡⁠•⁠ ⁠ᵕ⁠ ⁠•⁠｡⁠∩⁠`⁠)

The bright city lights stretched endlessly, reflecting off the windows of towering skyscrapers. The streets were alive with people, cars rushing past, neon signs flickering. It was a city full of life, full of movement

But

For Kim Taehyung, it was nothing more than an empire he had conquered.

In his office on the top floor of KTH Corporation

TAEHYUNG

(Leaned back in his chair, eyes scanning the skyline)

He was the most powerful businessman in South Korea. Rich beyond imagination, respected and feared by everyone, he had everything—money, luxury, success

And yet, he had nothing.

Every deal he made, every event he attended, every interaction he had—it was all transactional. People admired him, envied him, but no one truly cared about him.

TAEHYUNG

Is there even a single person in this world who loves me for me?

TAEHYUNG

(Scoffed at his own thoughts)

Love? Caring? Those were just fairy tales for ordinary people. He had learned that long ago.

His phone buzzed.

"Mr. Kim, your dinner meeting with the investors is in an hour," his secretary informed him.

TAEHYUNG

(Sighed)

Taehyung sighed. Another night of fake smiles and empty conversations.

In a small, dimly lit apartment

One person sat in front of his grand piano. His fingers moved effortlessly over the keys, filling the room with a melody so hauntingly beautiful that it could make anyone stop and listen

But no one was listening.

Jungkook was blind birth .He had never seen the world—not the sky, not the people, not even his own face. But he could feel it through music.

His parents had left him a vast fortune, making him a millionaire. But money meant nothing when the only person in his life—his uncle—saw him as nothing more than a bank account.
