Everyone in the company knows one thing about Ethan Jang. Our CEO has no heart.
Cold.
Emotionless.
Brutal enough to fire someone before they finish “Good morning.”
So imagine my shock when I walk into his office at 2 a.m. and catch the “Ice King of Seoul” ugly-crying over a K-drama, clutching a tissue and whispering,
“Don’t die, Eun-bi… please…”
I should’ve backed out slowly.
Instead, he saw me.
Now Ethan Jang billionaire, perfectionist, professional soul-crusher — is doing everything to shut me up:
bribing me with bonuses, threatening to transfer me to Antarctica, and begging me (yes, begging) to keep his midnight K-drama breakdowns a secret.
But hiding it becomes impossible when:
• He accidentally quotes K-drama love lines during meetings.
• He drags me into a fake-dating scandal to protect his image.
• He insists on “rehearsing” romantic confession scenes with me… too close, too intensely.
• And worst of all, his cold façade starts cracking — and I’m starting to like what I see underneath.
He’s all logic and walls.
I’m chaos, emotions, and bad decisions.
We were never meant to mix…

It's fascinating how 'SINCE 1894: Captain Jeon' blends historical vibes with a gripping narrative. The main character, Captain Jeon, is this rugged, determined sailor who's got this mysterious past tied to the year 1894—something about a family legacy and a lost ship. What really hooks me is how the story doesn't just focus on his seafaring adventures but dives deep into his personal struggles, like balancing duty with his own demons. The art style gives off this old-school maritime feel, which totally complements his character design—weather-beaten face, piercing eyes, like he's seen things.
I love how the series slowly peels back layers of his personality. One chapter he's this stoic leader, the next he's cracking jokes with his crew or reminiscing about his childhood. It's rare to find a protagonist who feels so multi-dimensional, especially in historical fiction. Plus, the way the author ties real historical events into his backstory? Chef's kiss.
