Secret Decoding Operation

Hunters Ha-Rim and Do-Yoon thought their latest job would be routine: deciphering an ancient manuscript and moving on. Instead, the moment they begin unraveling its secrets, the two fall victim to a suspicious curse that binds them together in ways neither anticipated. As its effects take hold, they learn there is only one way to lift it — a true union of bodies. For Ha-Rim, a stoic and eccentric man who keeps the world at arm's length, such a solution is daunting enough. For Do-Yoon, whose dapper, polished exterior conceals a complete lack of experience, the prospect is downright mortifying. Bound by a curse neither can escape alone, the two hunters must set aside their differences and their dignity to pull off an operation that is as awkward as it is intimate. With no alternatives and time working against them, Ha-Rim and Do-Yoon must decide whether they can truly trust each other enough to s쳮d — and whether a curse-breaking ordeal might blossom into something far more genuine. This volume also includes three extra chapters.
