Han Jisung- a sweetheart, an accountant, an introvert with one friend. He belonged nowhere near the underground world of crime thriving under the shadows of the city. Sudden circumstances said otherwise. Lee Minho- a gangster with a dark past and scars to show for it, cold hearted and rough. He belonged to the shadows, learned how to control them. Tricked by his shitty boyfriend, Jisung takes the fall for a drug exchange gone wrong. But he finds one spark of luck within the pile of unlucky ashes he is buried in- a gangster offers him mercy--- and so much more as he falls into the world of violence and crime. Growth, flaring tempers, deep emotions, and most of all- a sprout, a hope, for love. Their entanglement would change everything within themselves. For better? Or for worse? Only time will tell.
