    Summary

    Some scars don't disappear just because you leave the place that gave them to you.

    Jisung grew up learning to survive—an abusive father, a mother losing herself to illness, a cruel school, and Minho: the boy he hated most and could never stop looking at.

    Four years after leaving Korea, Jisung returns carrying the same scars.

    His mother is still fighting. His father is still the man he fears. But Jisung is tired of being afraid.

    An unexpected encounter leads him to an underground boxing club and a chance to build a life of his own.

    Then Minho comes back.

    The same boy who once made his life a living hell.

    Except Minho has changed.

    And so has Jisung.

    Now Jisung must face what scares him most: forgiving Minho, or admitting he never stopped wanting him.

    Because sometimes, the person who hurt you is the one who knows your scars.

    And sometimes, the love you thought you never deserved comes from the last person you expected.
