Ryul raised a brow. “What? You didn’t like it?”
Jihoon opened his mouth to answer but found himself at a loss for words.

After losing his parents in a tragic fire, Jihoon was left to care for his younger brother while juggling university and part-time jobs. When he moved into a new apartment, hoping for a fresh start, he met his reclusive neighbor, Ryul. He was a mysterious man who avoided interaction and had scars covering half of his face, making him appear even more intimidating.
They never quite got along, yet whenever Jihoon found himself in trouble, Ryul was always there to help. Just when Jihoon started to wonder if there was more to him than his rough exterior, Ryul’s persistent ex-lover returned, unwilling to let go. To put an end to the harassment, Jihoon impulsively claimed that he and Ryul were dating.
What began as a simple lie soon entangled them in a relationship neither had expected, one that might change their lives forever.
