Joo Incheol thought he was going places. As a loyal aide to Lee Myeongseon, a rising political figure and contenders for ministers, he was on a secure path – until the rivalries within the campaign began to swallow him whole.

To prove he was worth keeping around and to reestablish himself, Incheol was given an important task: to figure how to diffuse a redevelopment dispute in the problematic Jungang district of Songmun City. The redevelopment plans were politically sensitive, publicly condemned and practically impossible. Incheol was aware that his entire future hinged on this case.

His only real lead? Ahn Pyeonghwa, the owner of a decrepit fitness center, found in the geography of the redevelopment conflict. Also problematic? Ahn Pyeonghwa is his neighbor – but not one he knows very well.

When Incheol reaches out for his support, Pyeonghwa agrees. However:

“Hit me.”

Drawn from every direction by ambition, uncertainty, and baffling request from a neighbor, Incheol is caught in a complex situation in which the very rules of political negotiation no longer apply, and where the distinctions between politics, personal interests, and pain, become fundamentally blurred.

I’m a helpless virgin. But who needs to know that? Online, everyone thinks I’m a sex god… enough to offer me his wife. Could I really tame her?

After being buried in work for what felt like forever, Isaac finally let loose and drank a bit too much during a night out with his only real friend, James. It had been ages since he got that drunk, and when he came to the next morning in a hotel room, he wasn’t alone.

Lying beside him was Theodore — his old boarding school roommate — someone he hadn’t seen since he vanished years ago without warning. Their reunion didn’t feel casual or coincidental. Something about Theodore’s sudden reappearance didn’t sit right, and the way he acted… it wasn’t exactly how an old friend would behave.

Why did he come back now? What does he really want from Isaac?

The uncle wasn’t some creep—he never saw the girl, his daughter’s friend, in any inappropriate way. To him, she was like family. His feelings were actually directed toward the girl’s mother, someone he genuinely wanted to build a relationship with.

What started out as a promising, high-paying gig quickly spirals into something far stranger for Baechan Oh. He thought he landed a dream opportunity—but instead, he’s pulled into an underground world few even know exists.

Welcome to The Dungeon—a hidden society operating beneath the surface of everyday life.

But was it fate that led him here, or something more deliberate? As Baechan navigates this unfamiliar and dangerous new world, it becomes clear: someone has been watching him all along. And they may have much bigger plans in store…

Soo-ah, eager to kickstart her fitness journey, signed up for a one-on-one personal training session after a friend’s glowing recommendation.
