Gwon Lee Hyeon’s daily life was no different from any other day.
At least, not until Goo Seunghyeok—the man he broke up with nine years ago—reappeared.

“Since when did this place start selling holes too?
I didn’t know you’d even sell your ass for money.”

Seunghyeok shows up as the owner of Club Nexus, where Lee Hyeon works.
From the moment they cross paths, he spits out venomous words, staring at Lee Hyeon with eyes full of disgust, as if he were looking at something filthy.

“But why look at people like that? It hurts, you know.
I’m just trying to give an old friend a good opportunity after all this time.”

As if proving that misfortune never comes alone, Lee Hyeon’s life begins to unravel after meeting Seunghyeok again.
The bond between them—on the verge of snapping—remains connected by a thin yet unbreakable thread.

“If you need money, say it properly.
Are you really that desperate for money earned by beating people up?”

Did you look at me with the same disgust back then, too?
What kind of face, what kind of eyes did you look at me with…?

The past that refuses to let go tightens its grip around Gwon Lee Hyeon once more.

“…It’s been a long time, Goo Seunghyeok.
