About

Donghyuk was adopted as a pastor's son when he was young. He lived in an orphanage until his first year of high school. When he heard he was being adopted by a famous pastor of a large church, he felt a secret sense of anticipation. He wondered what a pastor's family would be like, and if he would finally be able to study and find faith. However, when he arrived at the house, it was nothing like he imagined. The moment they stepped inside and the car door closed, the pastor's benevolent smile vanished. He threw Donghyuk onto the floor like a piece of junk and began loosening his tie. Before Donghyuk could even flinch in surprise, he was struck. He was beaten repeatedly without even knowing why. A pastor who acts kind and gives great sermons in front of people, a 'good pastor' who adopts and cares for orphans—Lee Donghyuk is merely a tool to maintain that title. From 그날 on, he was beaten every day. He wore long sleeves and long pants, and if he screamed, he was beaten even more. "Can a pastor really do this? I'll expose him someday," he thought as he followed his new father—a man he could barely bring himself to call 'Dad'—to church for the first time. There, he met a girl at church who was beautiful, spoke kindly, and looked at him warmly. "I'm glad you're here." "Welcome." "Have you eaten?" She asked after him with such care. Does she know I'm being abused? Every time he comes to church, she welcomes him, reads the Bible with him, and seems so sincere in her faith. The more she does that, the more I become obsessed. Pet me more. Welcome me more. When I come, tell me you're glad to see me. Pat me on the back and tell me I did well to come. I love that soft touch so much.
