My Secret Brother

Starting fresh at a new school is always daunting, but for Hanmi, the pressure to make an immediate impression leads to a reckless decision. Desperate to catch the attention of Lee Gun on her very first day, she spins a calculated lie designed to put herself on his radar. What begins as a simple bid for notice quickly spirals out of control when her shallow scheme backfires in the most unexpected way possible. Instead of drawing Lee Gun closer, Hanmi’s fabricated story creates a chaotic misunderstanding that sweeps through the entire student body. Before she can set the record straight, rumors cement themselves into accepted fact, leaving her trapped in a deeply uncomfortable situation. Now, everyone at the school firmly believes she is romantically involved with Junhyuk. The cruelest irony of all is that Junhyuk is not just a classmate or a random stranger—he is her actual cousin. Caught in a web of her own making, Hanmi must navigate the social minefield of her new environment while desperately trying to undo the damage. With the whole school watching their supposed relationship unfold, untangling this mess without exposing her initial deception—or causing even more embarrassment—proves to be far more complicated than simply getting one boy to notice her.
