Ravi Sharma is not who he appears to be. To the bustling streets of Seoul, he's just another quiet, enigmatic face. In reality, he's Valerius Kaelen, a being of immense power from the hyper-advanced Orion Synod, accidentally stranded on Earth—a primitive world by his standards. With god-like abilities over time, matter, and energy, he could reshape this planet with a thought. Yet, all he desires is to return to the stars.
As he navigates the bewildering customs and chaotic emotions of humanity, hiding his true nature becomes a daily struggle. His carefully constructed anonymity is threatened when he encounters Yoon Ha-eun, an aspiring documentary filmmaker with an uncanny ability to see the extraordinary in the ordinary. Intrigued by Ravi's melancholic depth and unintentional humor, Ha-eun finds herself drawn to the man who seems to carry the weight of galaxies in his eyes.
For Ravi, Ha-eun is an anomaly—a human whose empathy and wit begin to unravel his centuries of emotional repression. Her presence stirs feelings he thought his kind had transcended: curiosity, protectiveness, and a terrifying, exhilarating warmth he starts to crave more than the cold light of his home stars.
Torn between his duty to return and the magnetic pull of a new, fragile home on Earth, Ravi must confront an impossible choice. Especially when his past, and the cosmic forces that exiled him, begin to catch up. "The Man Who Fell From the Stars" is a slow-burn romance, an emotional drama, and a slice-of-life fantasy about loneliness, belonging, and what it truly means to be human when you're anything but.
