    Summary

    In a French county ravaged by time, three destinies intertwine in the slow waltz of perdition: Taehyung, the count who collects beauties, whose haughtiness hides a desire he has never been able to name; Séraphine, his angelic wife, prisoner of a ceremonial marriage and a fever that consumes her day by day; and Jeongguk, a young painter of passionate genius, invited to paint the countess' portrait — but willing to do much more.
    What begins as art turns into sin.
    What seems like love reveals itself to be addiction, wound, and pact.
    Between veils, camafeos, and delusions, a triangle falls apart in obsession, silence, and blood.
    Inside a château surrounded by mist and whispers, Jeongguk and Taehyung build a profane altar — where the body is an offering, painting is confession, and faith drowns in pleasure.
    A pact has been sealed.
    The chalice of death will be served.
    And, until the last frame, no one will emerge unscathed.
