Summary
Set against the humid, atmospheric backdrop of a Maryland university, the story follows Chaeyoung Son, a talented and "messy" arts major who finds herself captivated by the enigmatic Professor Mina Myoui. Mina is a legend on campus—known as the "Ice Queen," she is a paragon of Victorian restraint, dressed in silk and lace, moving through the world with a precision that feels both beautiful and untouchable.
When Chaeyoung enrolls in Mina’s notoriously difficult seminar, The Architecture of the Victorian Novel, an immediate, unspoken tension ignites. While Mina preaches the importance of "the vessel" (restraint and form), Chaeyoung advocates for "the kiln" (passion and the beauty found in breakage).
Through private office hour consultations and late-night library encounters, the professional boundaries begin to blur. Chaeyoung is determined to find the cracks in Mina’s perfect foundation, while Mina struggles to maintain the "architecture" of her life against Chaeyoung’s disruptive, authentic heat. They are locked in a sophisticated game of intellectual flirting, waiting for the semester to end so the "scream behind the teeth" can finally be let out.Bookmarked by CowboyLikeMJ

Summary
She found a spot by the sound booth, settling in to people-watch as a way to kill time. The sudden loneliness of being there solo was just starting to sink in when she saw it — a flash of mint green.
In a sea of black shirts and leather jackets, someone was wearing a pastel cardigan.
Chaeyoung's eyes widened. She pushed through the crowd, her heart hammering. It couldn't be...
But it was.

Summary
It all started with a sad song Chaeyoung uploaded to the internet at 2 a.m. without thinking too much about it.
What she didn't know was that this song—mixed with strange frequencies, a bit of emotional desperation, and a lot of teenage drama— was a signal
Now, Myoui Mina, an alien, has landed on Earth with a single objective: to marry her.
The worst part? Chaeyoung can't stop thinking that, maybe, all of this isn't as absurd as it seems.
