With an intent of retaliation, Kwon Taejung, who had caused an embarrassing accident, was immediately removed from all his duties and sacked from the company in revenge. Surrendering to his father’s cruelty, he was sent to the troublesome and ruined Daramdong neighborhood, which was about to be demolished by the corporation.
The Daramdong neighborhood was famous for being broadcasted in a program as, “The Horror of Slums”. However, once the public outcry against the destruction had calmed down, the demolition plans were restarted only recently.
Only 3 months remained till the demolition, and Kwon Taejung could only return to the company after completing a “Safe Demolition” of the neighborhood without any further accidents. But there was only one protester of that “Safe Demolition,” and he was the slum’s youngest resident, Yigyeom.
“I am the recent resident of the red container.”
“…Container?”
“Yes, a red one. It's a total landmark of the slum.”
“The Horror of Slums” broadcasting team requested an interview with Yigyeom for a follow-up report. Kwon Taejung considered approaching Yigyeom to suspend the broadcast so that there would be no problems with the demolition of Daramdong.
Yigyeom, who had long suffered under the slum’s demolition management, mistook Kwon Taejung for the new thug-like service chief, and Kwon Taejung did not correct his misunderstanding. After all, the Daramdong was scheduled to be demolished in three months and there would be no opportunities to encounter Yigyeom after that, so it was best to let him think of him as a thug until then, Kwon Taejung concluded.
Yet Kwon Taejung could smell Yigyeom’s slightly sweetish peach scent, which was rare for a Beta, which Kwon Taejung presumed Yigyeom was.But as he realized Yigyeom was an Omega, his attraction in him gradually grew. Ignoring that his original aim was to disrupt the broadcast, he became further immersed in the weird emotion he had for Yigyeom. Yigyeom was well-behaved and hardworking, and he frequently felt overheated in response to Kwon Taejung’s pheromones; for these reasons, Kwon Taejung couldn’t help but look after Yigyeom.
“…I don't like thugs, you know.”
“Well, I don't like kids either.”
Despite his meek appearance, Yigyeom was a strong, confident, and intuitive man who would not be pushed around. Kwon Taejung would sometimes distract him off his path, as foolish as it was, but everytime Yigyeom would wither, Kwon Taejung would stay by his side and his once locked heart would begin to open. As their strange feelings for each other deepened, they became close without realizing they had opposing goals.
