## Synopsis (in-house rewrite)

So this is what happens when a slacker gets a charisma upgrade overnight.  
Jobless and adrift, a thirty-something man suddenly finds four very different women vying for his attention after quitting his job to write fluff pieces online.  
It’s less a romantic awakening and more a crash course in why sudden popularity shouldn’t count as a personality.

**Mood tags**: foreign-gem, cozy, playful, tender
