When rising K-pop idol Yul hits the brink of burnout, he vanishes from the relentless spotlight, seeking refuge in a quiet beach town. But his plan to escape fame is quickly derailed when he ends up crashing at a no-nonsense guesthouse run by Hae-won-a local girl who couldn't care less about idols or fanfare.
Used to being adored by millions, Yul finds himself disarmed by Hae-won's blunt honesty and fierce independence. She, in turn, sees past the glamorous facade to a young man desperately searching for his true self. As their worlds collide, a tender and unexpected romance blooms under the summer sun-but shadows from Yul's past and the pressures of his career threaten to tear them apart.
My Summer Star is a heartwarming, suspenseful, and beautifully honest Korean romance about finding love when you least expect it, learning to trust again, and discovering that sometimes the most important song is the one your heart sings in silence.
Will Yul and Hae-won's summer romance survive the storm, or will the spotlight pull them apart forever?
