In every story there are heroes and villains. They play the roles of both. Crescent Cafe is a nondescript cafe located at an alley, bringing in less than around 10 customers per day. Underneath the exterior of a failing business, the building masks the headquarters for 8 hired "couriers", doing jobs that range from menial ones such as catching a cheating spouse to skilled ones such as assassinating a gang leader. As long as it does not go against their principles and the pay's enough, the job is considered done. No one pays attention to them and only some know their secret identities. Han Byul is a recent university graduate crippling with student debt, fumbling around to find a part-time job that can at least sustain her until she finds a proper job. Frustrated after another failed job interview, she stumbled upon Crescent Cafe; she went in hoping for a cup of coffee and a peace of mind. What she got was a deadly secret that left the men with two choices: either kill her or take her in. But hey, at least the coffee's good. Action - comedy - romance... and many more in between. Hopefully. [Disclaimer: This story contains descriptions of sensitive themes, death, blood, violence and mild language. No explicit content.

Growing up with nothing makes you desperate. Growing up with nothing in a city that feeds on sin? That makes you ruthless. Kill or be killed. That's the rule. The only rule. You learn it young, or you don't live long enough to learn anything else. Trust? That's a luxury the streets don't offer. Kindness? A myth for the weak. But for seven outcasts, trust isn't a choice. It's survival. A genius who sees through the lies. A dreamer chasing a place to call his own. A hellion with a smile sharper than a knife. A fighter who bleeds for what he loves. A dancer haunted by ghosts of the past. A skeptic drowning in his own demons. And a dropout who cleans up the mess-no questions asked. They're not the first to try and take this world. But they'll be the first to come damn near close. Blood spills easy. Time runs out fast. When the walls close in, they'll have only one thing left-each other.

❝ After catching her enemy-turned-unlikely-ally slash crush Jeon Jeongguk sucking face with Lim Jugyeong by the lockers, Dae Aeri makes a clean break, hoping university will provide her with a fresh start. However, the last thing she expects is to see him sauntering shirtless down the hallways of her dorm, much less to be roped into a double date with him. ❞ [a jeon jeongguk oneshot] started: 01/29/21 ended: 06/28/23 HR : #396 in jeongguk
