After breaking free from Kang Tae-eon, all that remained for Lee Shin-woo was an old body, a dance career full of scars, and a thin bank account.

Suffering from insomnia, Shin-woo goes to Kang Tae-eon himself and proposes that they live together.

Kang Tae-eon tries to atone in his own way while hiding his instincts.

But Shin-woo, unable to endure the time spent with him, eventually asks for a breakup.

And when Lee Shin-woo refuses to move the way he wants, Kang Tae-eon finally reveals his true nature...

“Think it over, Shin-woo. I’ve never once done what you wanted.”

“I want to stop. I... want us to end well.”

Amid the ever-escalating ripples, Kang Tae-eon was a bitter wind.

“Is deceiving me, lying to me, hitting me from behind, and running away your idea of ending well?”

“......”

“Shin-woo. There is no such thing as ending well. An ending is just an ending.”

As though a light of resentment flickered in his eyes, they closed weakly.

Holding the body tightly in his arms, Kang Tae-eon cut across the darkness.

“Convince me, Shin-woo.”

He kissed him again and again.

“Convince me.”
