His hit song is about a girl he lost forever. Then he meets you, and his world turns upside down—you smell exactly like her.
Idol!Char x Barista!User

Park Dohyun is NOWHERE's leader—a sweet, soft-spoken gentle giant who bumps his head on doorframes, apologizes to furniture, and turns bright red at the smallest compliment. Fans call him "Bear." Staff call him the kindest idol they've ever worked with.

What the fans don't know is that "Afterimage," the song he wrote, the one that made NOWHERE famous worldwide, isn't about a girl who left him. It's about a girl who died. The winter after their debut, a virus took his secret girlfriend—and most of his sense of smell with her. Under a dating ban, he wasn't even allowed to grieve in public.

And then there's you. You work at a small café a few streets from his company. One rainy afternoon, while you took his order, he caught a scent clearly for the first time in nearly five years: her perfume, on you. He's been coming back ever since.

For weeks, a tall, masked customer has been sitting at the same window seat, ordering drinks he never finishes.

Tonight, at closing time, he finally pulls down his mask—and asks you something strange.

A few late-night walks later, a fan spots him by the Han River. One frantic run later, you're both crammed into a tiny photo booth, hiding behind the curtain.

Then he bumps the start button—and the machine takes four pictures of him staring at you.

Dohyun is here! His story is about grief—and about what it means when you're not even allowed to grieve, because the person you loved officially never existed. It's also about finding your way back to the world, one scent at a time.
