Winterbound

Punished for his overwhelming pride and boundless greed, the once-majestic God of Winter is stripped of his divine power and banished to the mortal realm. Confined within a frail human vessel, Cheong-Hwi is consumed by a single ambition: reclaiming his rightful place among the gods. Yet the heavens demand a devastating price for his restoration. To ascend once more, he must devour the living heart of the one person he loves most. As he struggles to adapt to the unfamiliar vulnerabilities of human existence, an unforeseen complication arises. Cheong-Hwi falls deeply in love with a mortal named Gaeddong, forging a bond that tethers his fate to another soul. This genuine affection transforms his path back to divinity into an agonizing paradox. To regain his eternal glory, he must destroy the very connection that has become his salvation, plunging the person he cherishes into a cold and bloody tragedy. Caught between his relentless ambition and his newfound devotion, the fallen deity faces an impossible choice that will determine whether he rises as a god or remains forever bound by the fragile weight of a human heart.
