The Academy

He was a boy who lived without limits-
because no one had ever stayed long enough to teach him where they were.

Branded reckless, violent, and unfixable, Jeon Jungkook is cast into the last place meant for boys like him: Kim Disciplinary Academy, where rules are law, silence is enforced, and discipline is absolute. A system built on structure welcomes a boy made entirely of chaos.

Jungkook believes what the world has always told him-that he is broken beyond repair, a mistake that discipline can only cage, never cure.

But behind the iron schedules and unyielding consequences stands a man with steady breath and unshakable patience. Dr. Kim Taehyung does not raise his voice. He does not give up. His brown eyes see past defiance, past rage, into the boy who learned too young that anger was safer than hope.

Every punishment is measured.
Every rule is followed.
And yet-every night Jungkook falls apart, those same hands remain.

The hands that enforce discipline also dress wounds.
The voice that delivers consequences also stays through shaking breaths and sleepless hours.
For the first time in Jungkook's life, correction does not come with abandonment.

Kim Disciplinary Academy is not a place that breaks boys.
It is where the lost are held accountable-and held together.

And within its walls, Jungkook doesn't just learn control.
He learns trust.
He learns restraint.
He learns that being guided does not mean being unloved.

This is a story of sharp edges softened by patience, of structure built not to imprison-but to protect.

A place where a boy who thought he was finished finally begins.
