Old Habits Die Hard

Won-Hyuk has carefully constructed a quiet, predictable life for himself. His daily routine revolves around a single-minded focus on his studies and a steadfast determination to avoid any unnecessary complications. With his sights set firmly on studying abroad, he believes that keeping his head down and staying out of trouble is the only path forward. For a time, this disciplined approach seems to be working perfectly, offering him the stability he desperately craves. However, that fragile sense of normalcy shatters the moment his alpha stepbrother, Han-Seo, unexpectedly returns. Won-Hyuk wants absolutely nothing to do with him, hoping to maintain the emotional distance he has worked so hard to establish. Yet, proximity to Han-Seo awakens something deeply unsettling within him. Despite his conscious resolve to sever their ties, Won-Hyuk finds himself trapped in a painful contradiction. While his heart is determined to forget their past, his body instinctively remembers every detail. This involuntary physical response forces him into an agonizing dilemma, leaving him to grapple with desires he thought he had buried and a connection he cannot simply walk away from.
