The world knows her as Inyeon. She became a trainee at fifteen, debuted at nineteen, and has spent every year since being exactly what the cameras needed her to be. Her comeback album is called Miss Me, and the world tour that goes with it opens in Seoul.

Behind the lights she is tired in a way sleep doesn’t touch. Her company owns her schedule, her apartment, and her smile, and her contract has opinions about whether she is allowed to want anyone at all.

Only her stylist, Sun-hee, who has known her since before the stage name existed, can still see the girl underneath.
