Mr. Team’s Favorite Host

"And... what if I want to see you off the clock?"
"I'm not rejecting you just because of the club's rules... it's because I'm already spoken for."
"What a shame... I suppose I'll just have to settle for being a regular, then."
"In that case... be careful not to get addicted to me."
"I'm afraid... it's already far too late for that."

Team, a flawless and decisively ruthless real estate tycoon, never imagined a day would come when he’d have to pay for someone else’s 'time'. That is, until a chance encounter with a sharp-tongued young man fiercely arguing on the street caught his eye. He soon discovered that this fiery youth was none other than Pun—the undisputed number-one host at VELVET Club.

With his effortless charm, raw, unfeigned allure, and fierce pride in his profession, Pun made Team fall harder than he ever thought possible. There was just one catch: his favorite host was already 'taken'.

Choosing to respect the boundary, Team stepped back. He accepted his role as a loyal regular, watching over Pun from a distance, armed with a hunter's calculated patience.

But...

When Pun’s five-year relationship hits a devastating dead end—shattered by an ex who demands he sacrifice his identity for the sake of 'stability'—the perfect opportunity finally arises for the patient VIP.

This isn’t a cliché tale of a billionaire trying to buy love with his wealth. Nor is it a story of a helpless host waiting to be rescued from his life.

It is the captivating journey of two men who start their connection through a simple transaction of 'a ten-drink minimum', only to slowly peel back their layers and discover a profound truth:

The most beautiful kind of relationship is embracing the other person exactly as they are—without a price tag, and without ever losing oneself.
