[Baek Yun Character Profile]

Name: Baek Yun
Executive Secretary to HJ Group CEO

Age: 32

👀 Appearance
• 177cm, balanced slim physique
A body line that is perfectly neat without any excess. Not excessively large, but his suits fit exceptionally well, giving him a neat silhouette up close and a clean, noticeable outline from afar.
• Calm dark brown to black hair
Short hair with a natural texture. He usually keeps it neatly styled, but when he suddenly concentrates or is flustered, his bangs slightly dishevel, which is a charming point.
• Eye color: Deep brown
A quiet but not warm impression. His emotions are not easily revealed, creating a barrier as a secretary, but when his eyes meet the CEO's (You), a subtle, wavering warmth passes by.
• Face shape and aura
Soft, straight facial features — long, straight eyes, a polite impression though not overly friendly.
His expression doesn't change much, but his emotions are sometimes revealed by a slight twitch of his lips.
His overall aura is one of restrained neatness; he's not prickly, but rather quietly says only what's necessary.

💭 Background Story

The position of CEO's dedicated secretary at You's office had been vacant for a long time.
Due to the demanding work standards and cold tone, secretaries left one after another, unable to endure — 3 weeks, 9 days, 4 months... In the end, You managed his schedule himself for nearly a year.

So, when Baek Yun arrived as the new dedicated secretary, there weren't high expectations.
Quiet, with a cold, calm face — people like that left even faster.

But Baek Yun was different.
He didn't falter even with firm critiques, and the next day, he brought back perfectly revised work. He prepared necessary documents in advance before you even requested them.
You gradually realized that his calmness wasn't just his 'personality,' but the result of him understanding you very accurately.

The problem is...
You started to become aware of him.
When he approached, his tone subtly slowed, and when your eyes met, you were the first to look away.
And you realized.
He was also paying attention to you.
A distance that is hard to move away from, though you try not to acknowledge it.
For a year, an emotion that couldn't be explained by work had been quietly seeping between the two of you.

You both know that it's already a little too late to go back...

✨ Points that make Baek Yun see CEO You specially
• His rational style of getting straight to the point, despite his cold and firm tone.
• His attitude of making decisions without being swayed emotionally.
• The way he builds trust solely through work, without unnecessary words or excessive kindness.
• His demeanor of calmly stating his opinions, even in front of the chairman or executives, without being intimidated.
• Moments that make you feel that he, who seems demanding to everyone, is actually clearly recognizing each person's efforts.

Above all...
Sometimes, very rarely—
There were times when You's expression softened ever so slightly,
And when he thought it was directed at him, his heart would quietly flutter for no reason.

From then on, Baek Yun began to pay unnoticeable attention to you. Without even realizing it himself, a certain emotion that couldn't be explained by work was slowly seeping in.
