Owned by the Bad Boy Athlete - Episode 17

Top swimming superstar Rowan is drugged and caught in an unexpected intimate encounter with Evan, a sports journalist who has secretly been in love with him. Evan flees in panic but accidentally leaves behind a borrowed press credential, leading Rowan to mistakenly believe that a vain female journalist named Lena was the one that night. Lena seizes the chance to cling to him, yet Rowan senses something off during their interactions. His gaze gradually locks onto the flustered, evasive Evan. A test, an out‑of‑control kiss—and the truth is completely exposed: the person from that night has always been him. As scandal erupts, family pressure mounts, and public opinion closes in, Evan—a wealthy heir—steps forward to protect the man he loves. From a secret, humble crush to a binding contract, this forbidden love story, born of an accident, burns fiercely against a backdrop of high society and blinding stardom.
