The story follows Jay, a 20-year-old college student who lives a normal life with his close friends Sunoo, Jungwon, and Jake. Their days are filled with laughter, exams, and youth-until Jay crosses paths with Heeseung, a mysterious man whose presence feels both dangerous and magnetic. What Jay doesn't know at first is that Heeseung, along with his brothers Sunghoon and Ni-ki, is part of one of the most feared mafia families in the city. Their younger sister is kept safe from most of their dark world-but fate begins to blur the lines when she meets Jake, sparking a forbidden romance.

After transferring from the United States to a new high school in Korea, Jay wants only one thing: to survive quietly. No attention. No rumors. No getting close to people again. But that becomes impossible when six boys slowly force their way into his life. There's Heeseung, the calm top student who notices everything Jay tries to hide. Jake and Jungwon, whose constant chaos somehow feels comforting. And Sunghoon, Sunoo, and Ni-ki-three disasters who refuse to leave him alone no matter how hard he tries to push people away. As old rumors follow Jay into his new school, he struggles with bullying, loneliness, and the fear of trusting people again. But between late-night tutoring sessions, stolen hoodies, shared umbrellas, movie nights, and quiet moments that start feeling dangerously safe... Jay slowly begins to realize something terrifying: Maybe not everyone leaves. Maybe some people stay. ships: heejay jakewon Sunsun Lil bit sunki *entertainment purpose only*
