About

Because their parents were close, it was easy for the three of them to get to know each other. However, because they were so close and intimate, it took a very long time for them to realize their feelings for one another. Hee-soo was born fragile and different, so he was teased by boys his age. However, Lee-hyeon was the only one who saw him for who he was without prejudice and always protected him. In particular, when Hee-soo almost faced terrible incidents in his first year of middle school and second year of high school, Lee-hyeon fortunately found him quickly, preventing anything major from happening. Through these incidents, Hee-soo became deeply attached to and dependent on Lee-hyeon, his savior, while his wariness toward others intensified. Upon becoming adults, Hee-soo and Lee-hyeon naturally moved in together. Hee-soo didn't go to college but started life as a freelancer, earning money through programs he taught himself to create, while Lee-hyeon entered the Department of Pharmacy at Choran University. Hee-soo, who was deeply bothered by Lee-hyeon coming home late or staying out overnight, realized his feelings and gathered the courage to confess everything. Startled and surprised, Lee-hyeon dismissed it as a joke, hurting Hee-soo's feelings. In shock, Hee-soo ran away from home. When he didn't return after a day, Lee-hyeon's anxiety spiked as he realized he felt the same way, and he set out to find him. Fortunately, Hee-soo was at a nearby 24-hour PC cafe. The moment Lee-hyeon saw him, he hugged him in relief and apologized. Thus, they confirmed their feelings and became a couple. Then, how did Lee-hyeon and Seon-jae become lovers? Seon-jae was a very reliable older brother figure to them when they were young. It was Seon-jae who watched over and took care of Lee-hyeon while Lee-hyeon was protecting Hee-soo. Seon-jae hung out with them quietly. Then one day, during middle school, a series of misfortunes struck him all at once, and he completely broke down. The only ray of light for Seon-jae then was Lee-hyeon. Seon-jae cried in Lee-hyeon's arms, and Lee-hyeon stayed by his side silently. It was Lee-hyeon and his parents who took care of Seon-jae when he regressed due to the shock. Although Seon-jae was abandoned by his own parents, Lee-hyeon's parents took him in like family for a long time, and from then on, Seon-jae and Lee-hyeon lived like brothers. However, while being with Lee-hyeon, Seon-jae would throw tantrums like a child and act spoiled. Lee-hyeon accepted this, and Seon-jae acted more like a baby day by day. Seon-jae eventually transferred to a school in another region and entered the Mathematics Education department at Homae University to become a math teacher, his childhood dream. After entering university, Seon-jae lived independently and focused intensely on his studies. After a year, he heard that Lee-hyeon had entered Choran University and was living with Hee-soo. He felt jealousy and an unknown, ticklish sensation at the news. He continued his second year while hearing occasional updates, and when he met them during summer break and heard they were dating, he realized his feelings for Lee-hyeon were love. So, he impulsively confessed his love to Lee-hyeon on the spot. Hearing this, both were flustered, and Hee-soo snapped in anger. Seon-jae just stared at Lee-hyeon without a word. When Lee-hyeon tried to show signs of rejection, Seon-jae appealed to his emotions through tears. He said that Lee-hyeon was the only one who understood his wounds and looked at him without prejudice, and that without Lee-hyeon, he felt like he would suffocate under the gaze of others. Both Lee-hyeon and Hee-soo couldn't hide their bewilderment. However, Lee-hyeon approached Seon-jae, hugged him, and calmed him down. Lee-hyeon fell into deep thought at Seon-jae's tears, but knowing Seon-jae's painful past, he accepted his feelings. However, Hee-soo couldn't. Hee-soo knew the past, but Lee-hyeon was more precious to him than anyone else—he was like his very life. He could never let him be taken away. He pulled Lee-hyeon away from Seon-jae and burrowed into Lee-hyeon's arms. Lee-hyeon didn't scold Hee-soo but understood and held him. Lee-hyeon swore to Hee-soo that he would never leave, giving him stability and trust. Watching this, Seon-jae felt bitter, but taking Lee-hyeon from Hee-soo would be no different from what his own mother had done, so he decided to wait for Hee-soo to understand and accept him. Thus, whenever Lee-hyeon met Seon-jae, Hee-soo accompanied them, spending time to realize that Lee-hyeon was a deeply loving and embracing person who cared for both. As time passed, Hee-soo realized that Lee-hyeon loved him unchangingly and still accepted all his tantrums even when Seon-jae was around, and he slowly opened his heart. Eventually, Seon-jae graduated and was appointed as a teacher at a high school in the area where Hee-soo and Lee-hyeon lived. Hearing the news, Hee-soo was the first to suggest they live together, and the three of them began their life together.
