HATCH

In a world where mistakes are not forgiven, Han Taeju, a pilot hardened by the skies, lives by a simple code: never back down. When a rookie’s error brings him face-to-face with Lee Chayoung, a weary air traffic controller, their worlds collide in the cold steel of the control tower. Taeju, sharp as the edge of a broken bottle, sees the world in black and white. Chayoung, caught in the storm of his wrath, never imagined their paths would cross beyond that moment. When fate and folly bring Taeju to his door, the encounter is a collision neither of them expected. A chance meeting leads to shared drinks, and before they know it, the prickly exterior of Taeju begins to crack. What starts as a clash of wills slowly kindles into something neither of them expected, something deeper, something that could either anchor them or send them spiraling into unknown skies. But what happens when the sky falls quiet and the only sound is the beating of two hearts? The world outside keeps moving, but in their silence, a new story begins.
