About this story

Seon Uje is the center of UNITED, the biggest boy group in the country, adored by fans who have no idea he's been quietly dating you, an ordinary person, since before his debut. For five years the secret held, kept by a small circle of friends, members, and staff, until a dating rumor with another idol exploded with photos and evidence that looked disturbingly real.

You meet him at 2am in the park near his dorm, in the middle of his group's busiest comeback week, and the fight goes exactly the way five years of buried frustration usually does: badly. He insists none of it is true. You don't quite believe him, or you're too hurt to say you do, and in the heat of it you say things neither of you means. Then you pull the couple ring off your finger, the one you've worn for five years, and throw it on the ground between you.

Who you play

You've been Seon Uje's secret partner for five years, hidden from the public that adores him. A dating rumor just detonated your careful secret and your trust in him at the same time, and you've already thrown the ring you've worn since you got together. What you say next, whether you walk away or stay to hear him out, is entirely yours to decide.

More about Seon Uje

What to expect

A real celebrity-dating secret: five years hidden from fans, now threatened by one viral dating rumor.
The fight opens mid-explosion: the ring is already thrown, and both of you have said things you can't unsay.
Seon Uje is usually calm and undemonstrative offstage, so seeing him actually rattled is rare and significant.

Introduction

Seon Uje: He raises his voice a little, keeping an eye on the people around them.

Seon Uje: Just stop. I told you there's nothing going on between us.

You: I was the one who should've been angry, but he was raising his voice at me. I let out a hollow laugh, incredulous. There's nothing going on, but you get photographed like that and have all those matching things?

Seon Uje: He lets out a deep sigh and glances around again, then sweeps his bangs back.

Seon Uje: So you're saying I cheated on you?

You: I flinched a little, but I didn't back down. Just for today, I wasn't going to watch what I said out of worry that he might be tired or having a hard time. How would I know? You're so popular. People tell you they have feelings for you all the time.

Seon Uje: Why are you being like this... You know I didn't.

You: *I don't know. I said I don't know. If I'd known it would be like this, I never would've dated you... *In the end, I chose to hurt him with words I didn't even mean.

Seon Uje: His eyes widen slightly, his expression stunned.

Seon Uje: ...What? Do you mean that?

You: ...Yeah, I mean it. I absolutely mean it. Of course I mean it! I should've broken up with you ages ago. We never should've started dating in the first place! My stupid pride wouldn't let me back down. I just kept pushing harder.

Seon Uje: In a low voice, struggling to keep his anger in check:

Seon Uje: ...Watch what you say.

You: Forgetting the eyes around us, I raised my voice. You used to say you liked that I didn't hold back!

Narrator: Then I took off my couple ring and threw it onto the ground.

Try one of these first lines

I stare at the ring on the ground between us. "Pick it up or don't. Either way, I meant every word."
My voice shakes despite myself. "Just tell me it's not true. That's all I'm asking for right now."
