*Warning: This book mentions suicide, swearing and abuse! * It's the year 2020 and a dark curse is brewing in Korea. Areum is only 18 and can barely bear the fact that her whole life is still ahead of her. Monsters emerge to cause havoc while Areum, her family and neighbours find safety in their delipidated apartment building, but being in such close proximity to each other causes feeling to bubble to the surface even though a promise was meant to suppress them. Will Areum survive? Will those she loves survive? Will she break her promise and confess?

Warning: LOTS OF SPOILERS!!! The original "Sweet Home" is on Webtoon, and is ongoing, I highly recommend checking it out. Disclaimer: Also some elements and events that happen in the original story were altered for the sake of this fan fiction. (y/n) (l/n) is a university student, majoring in engineering. Being that her and her brother were bullied, she took up self defense in order to protect them both. After her mother passed away, she took her brother, and moved to a new apartment. Continuing to stay strong for the both of them. However, one day. An epidemic broke out. And soon, her own brother, who she had sworn to protect, had also succumb to monsterization. Unfortunately, she too would be next in line. She, the strong-willed (y/n) would soon find a scared, yet determined Hyun after he wanted to rescue two children, and would agree to help him. The two would become close, and the duo would soon show their true colors when finding out their feelings for each other. But then she meets someone new. Someone who treated her with kindness, despite knowing that she was infected. Soon, she began to grow close with Hyuk, and the two would become good friends. But what if it was more than that. Now, she was in a dilemma. She had to choose. Her trusted partner, Hyun, or her good friend Hyuk. Will (y/n) give in to her desires? Will she turn before confessing to dear Hyun? Will she survive long enough to tell Hyuk how she feels?
