Suho is popular, athletic, and cold - a boy who fights to survive both at school and at home. Sieun is brilliant, quiet, and alone - a boy who hides behind grades and routines to avoid being seen. They were never meant to speak. But when a moment of weakness draws them together, everything changes. Bound by a school project, stalked by bullies, and caught in a growing storm of violence and emotion, Suho becomes Sieun's reluctant shield - and Sieun, the only person who dares to look past Suho's walls. In a world of bruises and silence, what starts as fascination becomes something deeper, more dangerous... and impossible to ignore.
