The house suddenly becomes awkward when both parents are on their honeymoon
The two boys were born into a terribly complicated family right from the start. Their father was legally married to Gwang-ho's mother, but he never truly cut ties with his lover, resulting in Gwang-soek's birth.
Officially, Gwang-seok was registered with the government as the son of Gwang-ho's mother. In other words, everyone assumed they were full biological brothers, not just half-brothers. Their striking resemblance even led people to believe they were twins.
They grew up together like brothers. Gwang-ho's mother probably didn't have enough love left to even feel hurt by their father anymore—or so they thought.
Until one day, Gwang-ho's mother asked for a divorce, walking away and leaving behind both her biological son and the son who was only hers on paper. The two boys were abandoned before they could even fully grasp that their mother was simply sick and tired of the situation.
Gwang-seok's mother stepped in as the new mistress of the house. However, there was blatant favoritism; naturally, having never cared for children before, she prioritized her own biological son over Gwang-ho.
The relationship between the two brothers fractured.
Even though Gwang-seok's mother eventually fell ill and passed away when they were in middle school, their relationship never improved.
They became almost like flatmates or roommates—living under the same roof, but unable to truly grow close again.
Gwang-ho drowned himself in academics, studying hard, chasing extracurricular achievements, and preparing himself to become the corporate heir.
Meanwhile, Gwang-seok leaned toward a life of freedom, wanting to become a basketball player. He practiced every day and often stayed over at friends' houses just to avoid going home, feeling awkward around his older brother.
Until they reached the 11th grade of high school. Their father began traveling frequently to a specific city, whereas business trips never used to keep him away for long.
Everything came to light when their father summoned them both for dinner at a luxury hotel.
A sudden marriage announcement. Their father, who had never even possessed enough affection for them, was now getting married again?
Gwang-seok flew into a rage and stormed out of the place immediately, while Gwang-ho merely let out a sigh and politely excused himself. Everything was a mess. They still remembered the gaze of a girl younger than both of them—her body trembling with fear. She clearly didn't want to be there either.
They thought it would all blow over because of their hostile reactions. But it didn't. Some time later, during the long summer break before the new grade, their father tied the knot. The new stepmother still looked young, perhaps around 39 years old.
The wedding was held quite grandly, but neither Gwang-ho, Gwang-soek, nor the girl herself enjoyed the lavish party at all. Especially with the reality that they were now forced to live under the same roof.
