Dive into Love's Heartbreaking Triumph
That man, the face-genius composer Han Jimin who became known through Shine Candy's promotional videos with that woman. But once he got properly dolled up, he looked like a straight-up male god.
In the video, Jimin and Ria finally meet. But the two can't get close to each other. Like fools in love. Ria believes her love won't help him, so despite her deep feelings, she can't approach. Jimin feels the same. He reveals his emotions, but wounded by Ria's distant figure, he stays rooted in place. In the end, their relationship doesn't connect, ending in tragedy.
Countless fans who watched the music video shed tears and started posting comments. This attention translated into sales for the single album, propelling Fool's Love and Dive in Love to the top spots on Mango and multiple music sites in an instant. Not only that, but the songs started naturally playing in cafes and on the streets everywhere. The era of ballads had truly arrived.
"It's a total hit, right?"
"How many digital singles has Ria's song sold?"
"We need to include Mango in the count…. Even just the initial sales guarantee gold. Streaming's already over 7 million plays."
All eyes at BOZ were glued to Fool's Love and Dive in Love. Heart-wrenching ballads have that something that tugs at people's emotions. But this single from Ria and Han Jimin went beyond, moving fans to tears. The linkage between the two tracks played a big role, but it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say the Dive in Love music video did it all. Just three days after release, the MV views had surpassed 7 million. Astonishingly, the growth rate was accelerating. Word was spreading overseas too, with comments in various languages popping up.
"At this rate…. Composer Han Jimin will go full singer-songwriter."
"That'd be better. We get to see him on screen too."
"Right? Not going into entertainment with that face would be a sin."
When he produced Shine Candy, only a few people got to meet Han Jimin. He rarely showed up except for work sessions. But rumors had spread that while preparing this track, BOZ offered him a top-tier exclusive contract. And that he'd signed it.
"Aaang! Aaah! Ah! Ungh! Sis, sis's pussy's gonna cum—! Ahoot! Oooh!"
"Me too, I'm cumming!!!"
"J-Jimin, inside! Inside—!"
Of course, he'd stamped something else on Oh Minseo when she brought the contract. No one knew about that.
"…Hm."
In the studio on the upper floor of the BOZ building, he checks the reactions to Dive in Love. His own private studio, assigned right after signing the exclusive contract.
"People are going crazy over it."
He'd expected success. The track was that good. But this was a mega-hit. Not quite at the level of a globally popular idol group, but walk down any street and you'd hear his song playing. It even knocked Shine Candy's Blush off the top of the Mango chart. Thanks to that….
500 IP acquired.
1000 IP acquired.
He earned some minor achievements along with IP. He also gained a new IP slave: Foxy's Ria. As a star with a global fanbase, she brings in 7 to 10 IP per performance. Double Shine Candy's rate.
"Probably 'cause her fame is about twice theirs."
Thanks to that, he hoped Shine Candy's mini-album would do well. Level them up to Foxy's level, and they'd be even better IP slaves.
As he organized his thoughts, he sensed someone behind him. Sneaky footsteps approaching. He stayed still, then whipped his head around.
"Kyaa!"
Ria, eyes meeting his suddenly, startles and nearly falls back. He jumps up and grabs her wrist.
"You okay?"
"Ah, uh…. Yeah, no, yes."
Foxy's leader, Jeong Ria. 21 years old. Older than him, but they decided to drop formalities. She said it felt better that way? Anyway, working together brought them close. Singing and recording together exchanged emotions naturally. Spend all day stuck like that, and you're bound to bond.
Not that there was any skinship.
She'd said he was her first love? He learned that while fucking Kim Nayun at the Shine Candy dorm.
After releasing the digital single with Ria,
[Sniff…! Ah! D-Did it feel that good?]
[What?]
[Ah, aa…. S-Singing with R-Ria.]
[Why? You two not getting along?]
[It's not that…! Hngh!]
She wasn't happy about his success—her face soured, so he dug in relentlessly and found out. Her jealousy was obvious, so for fun, he ignored Kim Nayun and only pounded Choi Yunji and Oh Jiyeon.
[Sorry…! I was wrong. I won't do it again. No more jealousy. I'll apologize to Ria unnie. So please…! M-Me too….]
[Stay there and wait.]
[Ah, aa…. I hate being hated. Hate it…. Hate it…. Sorry. Sorry. Sorry.]
It hit Kim Nayun's mentality hard. Normally bright and shining, but her love for him made her crumble easily on anything involving him.
[Hate it…. Hate it…. Ah…….]
[You'll behave from now on, right?]
[Yes, yes! I won't let it happen again. I'll only do what oppa likes. So…. Give me your cock too. Please?]
[Open your mouth.]
[Wuup…! Buup! Kuuwuup!]
Her pitiful yet cute state made him stuff his cock in every hole, including her throat.
[Ah, aa…. Oppa. I love you. Love you so much.]
He creampied her multiple times. Holding her tight as she trembled, he finally slipped a small pill into her mouth at the end.
[What's this?]
[Vitamin. You sweated a lot, right?]
Actually, a contraceptive from the IP Shop for 10 IP. Found it by chance in consumables—100% effective for just 10 IP. He bought a bunch. Figured he'd need them.
After that, he watched Ria's behavior. She clearly liked him—subtle touches like skinship. She sneaks into his studio whenever she has time, like now. Her manager even came looking a couple times.
"What's up?"
"Thought you hadn't eaten yet. Here, this…. Ah!"
She sneaks up from behind with a bento, but the contents are a mess. Probably from almost falling.
"Uh, uuh……."
Tears well up in Ria's eyes as she stares at the bento.
"Hm."
He snatches the bento box. Thought it was convenience store stuff, but no. Cute pink container—no way a store sells that. Did she make it herself?
Feels weird.
First time eating a lunchbox from a girl, and it's from an idol. A top star at that.
"It's totally messed up…."
"It's fine. Tastes the same once it's in your mouth. You made this yourself? Doesn't look store-bought…."
"Uh……, yeah."
Ria nods shyly. Male fans who love pure girls would clutch their hearts and faint.
In this reversed world, every woman he'd met was dependent, obedient, devoted. Probably 'cause push-pull would make guys bounce right off.
Anyway, the bento's a mess but edible.
I've eaten worse field rations for two years.
He mixes it with a spoon and takes a bite. Got cooking talent? Pretty good. Seasoning's spot on.
He glances at Ria—she blinks back, face full of expectation.
"Tasty."
"Really?!"
She throws her arms up in joy, then realizes and bows her head.
"Yeah. With all that love in it, how could it not be?"
Teasing, he floats the line, but
"Should I make more next time? With even more love?"
She counters boldly. Guess that's what makes her a group leader. But damn, it makes him wanna mess with her.
As she approaches to clean up the empty bento, he pulls her into a hug. Tilts her head back, presses his lips to hers, and slips in his tongue.
"……!"
She jolts, letting out a nasal whine in surprise. But no rejection. She accepts his tongue, responding bit by bit.
"Mm, mmm…. Hm."
Their saliva swaps back and forth, creating lewd echoes. While kissing, he places a hand on her breast over her clothes. She trembles hard—too fast? He debates pulling back, but she grabs his hand and guides it to her chest.
So he gropes the soft mound freely.
Wanna grope it bare….
Worried about the manager, he holds back. Plenty of chances later. This start would make next time easier.
Or so he thought.
Ria sneaks her hands behind her back. Moments later, thunk—her bra falls loose.
"Um…. Wanna touch?"
She pulls back from the kiss, looks at him with a shy, trembling voice.
So, click.
Instead of her breasts, he locks the door.
Manager? Yeah, thought she was here for recording. That'll cover it.
