My Scary Guy

“If Hyeonhee-hyung ever found out about something like this… I’d get beaten half to death.”

After his parents divorced, Yunwoo went to live with his father. The people who became his family were the neighbors next door—Hyeonju’s family. Every member of the household, who treats Yunwoo as if he were one of their own, is precious to him. But the person Yunwoo cherishes most is Hyeonhee, the family’s eldest son and the older brother of his same-aged friend, Hyeonju.

Blessed with good looks, excellent grades, and outstanding abilities, Hyeonhee is known throughout the neighborhood as the model son everyone envies. Although he’s famous for being strict and intimidating, Yunwoo, despite being afraid of him, has secretly harbored feelings for him for years.

However, Yunwoo’s unrequited love faces a seemingly insurmountable obstacle: Hyeonhee is a steadfast homophobe.

Concealing the fact that he’s gay and presenting himself as nothing more than a good younger brother in front of Hyeonhee, Yunwoo suffers in silence. Then, after finally working up the courage to confess to a junior he has liked for a long time, his confession ends in failure because of Hyeonhee. As a result, he gets caught up in Hyeonju’s revenge scheme after Hyeonju completely loses his cool over the situation.

Meanwhile, Hyeonhee, determined to track down his younger brother Hyeonju after he causes a major incident and runs away from home, decides to stake out a gay bar where Hyeonju is likely to show up. He then pressures Yunwoo into becoming his fake partner and helping him catch Hyeonju.

And so Yunwoo finds himself in a situation that feels like either heaven or hell—he can’t tell which—as he’s forced to spend every night at a gay bar with the man he’s hopelessly in love with, engaging in increasingly intimate skinship as part of their act….
