The Hollow Heart

Kim Seo-Ah, a 21-year-old woman cast aside by her prestigious family, decided one fateful night to unveil their darkest secrets to the media. Her triumph was short-lived, however. Just as she relished her revenge, a shadowy figure emerged and pushed her from the rooftop, ending her life in a tragic fall.

However, fate intervenes in the form of a mysterious twist. After Seo-Ah's tragic end, her soul is transported into the world of the otome game “Whispers of the Hearts,” where she becomes a girl named Lynx.

In this new reality, Lynx's path crosses with the enigmatic Duke of the North, Azrael Valerian. Azrael, the villain of the game, has the curse of the hollow heart—loved by many but unable to reciprocate any affection. Among the nobility, he is a figure of both fear and fascination.

As Seo-Ah, now Lynx, delves deeper into the game’s story, she realizes that there is much she still doesn’t know, despite having completed the game once. Her actions in this world not only affect her own fate but also the lives of those around her.
