"He was taught to win wars, not to fall in love." General Kim Hongjoong is a man of ice. Orphaned, hardened by the streets, and molded by the military, he has spent thirty-six years building a life of power where no one can ever hurt him again. As a high-ranking commander in the Vietnam War, his only job is to lead, to fight, and to survive. He doesn't have room for feelings. Until he meets Park Seonghwa. In the middle of a brutal war and the endless jungle rain, Seonghwa is the only thing that feels like home. But in 1970, their love isn't just a secret-it's a crime. Especially in a world of rigid military codes and a war that demands total loyalty, love is more than a distraction. It's treason. Loving Seonghwa means risking the rank Hongjoong bled to earn. It means choosing between the life he fought to build and the man he can't breathe without. Now, the General faces his most brutal choice: Does he protect the rank that saved him from poverty? Or does he burn it all down for a love that was never supposed to exist?

Park Seonghwa never imagined his quiet life would unravel with a single phone call. "You will marry Kim Hongjoong. It's not a choice." His father's voice was sharp and steady on the other side of the line he left no room for negotiation. The Kim family-cold, feared, and haunted by a violent past-offered an arranged marriage to get an heir for the family. But the man Seonghwa is supposed to wed doesn't even show up to meet him on the first meeting. Instead, Seonghwa faces the cold truth from Hongjoong's father: "If anything happens to my son, you inherit everything. The fortune. The protection." Seonghwa wants no part of this. He did not want wealth born from blood. He did not want safety purchased with someone else's life. He did not want anyone to get hurt. But the choice isn't his to make especially that his father gave his words to Mr. Kim. When asked, "Are you willing to marry my son?" he hesitates... then quietly agrees. Because deep down, he knows this marriage is more than a contract for both families. Will Seonghwa survive the man who refuses to love him?

"Not only did you think you could steal from a pirate captain, but also escape from one? That's pretty foolish to me...darling." "I'd rather you call me thief." OR Seonghwa always thought he was nothing more than a street rat, a thief living off pick pocketing and stealing from local vendors. All of that changes when he tries to pick pocket the infamous pirate captain Kim Hongjoong, who then reveals to him the matching birthmark. Which is supposed to lead them to a treasure that the captain has been hunting for, for years. However, legends are always told differently, and a darker fate awaits the two.

In a kingdom where marriages are decided like treaties, love has no place. Seonghwa, heir to the throne, is about to marry a woman he has never chosen. Around him, everything is nothing but appearances: golden halls, rehearsed smiles, and vows shaped by the demands of the crown. His two brothers, Yeosang and Wooyoung, watch in silence, knowing that one day the same fate may await them. But in the shadows of the ceremony, another force is preparing to strike. Five pirates have infiltrated the palace. Led by Hongjoong, they have not come to admire the splendor of the court, but to oppose this arranged union. To them, freedom answers to no crown, and the sea bows to no king. Between duty and desire, between land and ocean, destinies collide. An unexpected encounter, a stolen glance, a forgotten ring-small moments that begin to unravel carefully planned lives. As political tensions rise and loyalties are tested, each of them will be forced to choose what matters most: obedience, honor... or freedom. In a world where alliances are forged and broken, nothing is ever left to chance. And sometimes, a single moment is enough to change the course of a kingdom.

Secrets were always meant to stay buried. Atleast that's what Seonghwa thought. 𓆩༻˚•∘♡∘•˚༺𓆪 Seonghwa refuses to believe his brother is dead. While everyone else has moved on, he's still chasing fragments -- rumours, sightings, anything that suggests the truth was buried along with the body. His search drags him into places he was never meant to survive: underground streets ruled by gangs, engines screaming through illegal races, and deals made in the dark. That's where he meets Hongjoong -- sharp, unreadable, and deeply embedded in a world Seonghwa barely understands. Their partnership is born out of necessity, not trust. Hongjoong knows the streets; Seonghwa has a reason to burn everything down. Together, they start pulling at threads that were never meant to unravel. But the deeper they go, the more dangerous the truth becomes. Loyalties shift, enemies blur into allies, and somewhere between late-night races and near-fatal choices, something unexpected begins to grow between them. Because, to Seonghwa, finding his brother might mean losing everything else -- including himself. 𓆩༻˚•∘♡∘•˚༺𓆪 ateez!racerAU Matz centered ♡
