"The fates will curse you to a life of hell."

She stared those loathsome eyes. Her very being screamed from inside. Her hate knew no bounds. And yet...and yet...why was he looking at her like that? Why did he not hate her? Why was there sadness in his eyes? Why?

"I'd rather take a million years in hell!" she spat out. "Yes...I did it. I killed your most precious person."

She flashed a manic smile. "You'll suffer for the rest of your life...Emperor. And nothing makes me happier..."

Her mad laughter echoed throughout the palace, etching a bone chilling fear into the hearts of everyone who was present that day.

The evil Empress had fallen.

.....

Wang Shina was shunned and exiled from her palace by her husband, Emperor Kang, and his concubine for an unforgivable crime. Evil, manipulative and cunning, Wang Shina only knows one thing: hatred. And she wasted no time in admitting her guilt.

After committing the horrendous crime to oust her husband from power, she was cursed by the kingdom's most powerful shaman: she will have to live as an old woman by the day and will change back to her real appearance during the night. And she will keep on living this cursed life for years until she finishes the task of changing the fates of 500 couples over the years.

Now, almost centuries later, Wang Shina goes by the name Cherry and is out to complete her mission after which, she can die in peace. Finally on her last mission, Wang Shina receives the last couple's names whose fates she will rewrite.

Enter Shin Jinhyun, a popular idol and the country's Idol King who is fated to be with Sung Yoona as per Wang Shina's task. But fate plays a cruel joke as Jinhyun and Yoona turn out to be the reincarnations of Cherry's ex-husband and his mistress. 

And furthermore, Jinhyun's heart has room for only one girl: the lady in red, Wang Shina.

Star Crossed: The Idol King & Empress of Evil

It was a hot summer day and all the trainees were tired from the day long practice sessions. They were at their agency's building, heading out of another dance class. Taesun's class had ended a few minutes ago and he was standing against a wall, staring at the ring he had bought a few days ago for Sojin. He had been carrying it around since then but he could not gather the courage to give it to her.

What would he say after giving it? Would he confess his feelings? Or simply remain a friend? Do friends give each other rings?

Taesun was startled and he quickly hid the ring in his pocket. Putting up a nonchalant expression, he looked around to see Sojin running towards him. She was just done with her practice session and looked quite delighted. Upon seeing Taesun, she rushed towards him like a child chasing a candy cart.

"What is it?" he asked in his aloof voice.
