'Sung Ho left his military job in US & moved to a country side in Korea when his ex gf one day pawned off a 1 year baby to him. On his 1st day he encounters, Kwon Haebeom who initially had a bad impression but later on ease up to father -daughter duo.'
BL. Found family. Love how they communicate their feelings and how they have each other's back!
BL. Reunion, friends to lovers. I don't think the summary did this story justice because this is more than a failed smut scene and whatnot. It's about finding yourself and your passion again amidst the insecurity, and it's nice to see both going forward on their own path because they have each other (and because they are both strong people as well) and that should be the highlight of the story. The smut is just a bonus imo.
"Wanting to forget something that had happened, Hikaru jumps off a building. Right before he hits the ground, a monster in a human shape breaks his fall. As it continues to stay by his side without saying a word, Hikaru starts to question what its motives are... A deeply moving BL that resonates with the heartbreaking feeling of being left behind."
BL. Tragedy. The ending is so bittersweet, and *spoiler alert* burnt details on his lips is enough to make you question what's real and what's not.
