Synopsis
Lee Ho-Yeon, known in-game as "White Jack," starts playing the MMORPG Lunatic with a skilled friend but quits after struggling with controls and losing motivation. Years later, frustrated by repeated university entrance exams, he logs back in for stress relief and unexpectedly meets the game’s top-ranking player, Kim Hee-Ho ("Monaka").Despite his foul temper and aloof reputation, Hee-Ho helps Ho-Yeon improve. When Hee-Ho leaves his guild due to conflicts and joins "21," the small guild Ho-Yeon inherited, their ranking quickly rises. Rumors spread that they are dating since Hee-Ho is uncharacteristically warm toward Ho-Yeon. To gain a game bonus, they register as an in-game couple, but no one believes it is just for the rewards. When a rival guild challenges them to a war, even the usually support-focused Ho-Yeon is forced to fight. He agrees to meet Hee-Ho offline for training but instead receives a real-life confession. They begin dating. The twist is that Ho-Yeon has been using a female avatar. When Hee-Ho proudly introduces his in-game partner, the truth comes out, sparking rumors that Ho-Yeon was pretending to be a girl. What started as a game partnership turns into a real relationship. But between guild conflicts, public scrutiny, and real-life pressures, Ho-Yeon struggles to keep up. With Hee-Ho’s unwavering support, he fights to protect both their guild and their growing bond.
