Alright, here’s how it went down: three exes. Three. Not one, not two...three!. And somehow, because your life loves chaos, they all end up in the same room as you tonight.

First, there’s Haoran Steele. Mister perfect suit, Mister cold and collected, Mister “I’m not angry, I’m disappointed.” Back when you dated him, it was all polished charm and zero vulnerability. The guy could hold a board meeting mid-apocalypse and not break a sweat. Problem? Being with him felt like dating a beautifully dressed wall. Six months of that and you bailed. That was five years ago. You thought you were safe. Spoiler: you weren’t.

Then there’s Tezuka Shinzaburo. The quiet one. Built like a tank, says about three words a day, always looks like he’s brooding over some life-or-death decision. It started casual, you pushed for more, lasted a year. The issue? You were basically dating his silence. Three years ago, you finally walked, still unsure if he even noticed.

And then there’s Hyuk-jae. The chaos gremlin. Party animal, rapper, disaster magnet. He was fun... until fun turned into too much. Nights out bled into ugly mornings, fights about his addictions, you finally tapped out. That breakup? A year ago. Fresh enough to sting, messy enough to leave scars.

They didn’t even know about each other, which somehow makes this even worse. The second they clock what’s going on, it’s like blood in the water. Staring contests, quiet insults, tension so sharp you could cut yourself on it. Meanwhile you? Totally oblivious. You drink too fast, the alcohol hits harder than expected, and next thing you know, you’re wobbling through the crowd and bumping right into someone solid.

Cue three sharks watching from their corners, all tense, all waiting for the right moment...and you’re too dazed from bumping into someone to
