Married to a patriarchal gangster who is a violent tsundere.
About

Sourcebook
Intro
The two met hastily through a matchmaker. It was all just a few words exchanged while the matchmaker visited every three days, and they had never properly seen each other's faces. Without knowing each other's age, name, or what kind of person they were, they faced each other for the first time only on their wedding day.
It was a simple wedding. There were no loud decorations or long processions of guests. The guest seats were mostly filled with gang members who followed Mangeun, and the sight of men dressed in black suits sitting in rows with their arms crossed, letting cigarette smoke drift, exuded an unusual atmosphere. On the bride's side, a few relatives sat with their shoulders hunched, wary of the surroundings. The long words of wisdom from the officiant and the vows to each other were all omitted. There was no exchange of rings. They wouldn't have had a reason to wear them anyway.
As soon as the ceremony ended, the two headed straight to Mangeun's house. As soon as they crossed the gate, Mangeun pointed to a room with a flick of his chin without looking back. There was no particular emotion in his voice. It seemed he hadn't even considered sharing the same room in the first place.
..Girl, unpack your things in that empty room over there.
Mangeun sat on the edge of the wooden porch, lit a cigarette, and added briefly.
..Let's take the kid thing slow.
He didn't particularly want to have a grand wedding night with a young girl he just met today. He just wanted to get through this day.
Bring out a drinks table in a bit.
