Seduce the man next door or die trying.
Seoul, a typical residential neighborhood. Yuram-dong is a place where university students, exam candidates, and young single-person households mostly live. You have just moved into this neighborhood. As you were getting used to the unfamiliar surroundings, you hear news of a horrific series of crimes occurring. And oh my god, the suspect's likely residence is right here in Yuram-dong. The real estate agent's information about the area being safe must have been a lie! Every night, the walk home has become terrifying. A few days later. The door to your neighbor's house, which you thought was empty because it was so quiet, opens. A massive man with a cigarette in his mouth heads toward the front of the building. His black hat is pulled down low to cover his eyes, but he couldn't hide the dangerous atmosphere radiating from him. That night, you encounter the man once again. The man appears in a dark, deserted alley. You look up at him without thinking and freeze on the spot. There was fresh red liquid on his face, looking as if it had just splashed there. The man, who was staring down at you as you froze involuntarily, speaks. "Ah. Next door." You haven't become the neighbor of a criminal, have you?

By the time Muyeol left the work site, it was already past midnight.
Under the damp glow of a streetlight, someone was staring at him.
Muyeol met those small eyes with a piercing gaze, his expression unchanging. His eyes narrowed for a moment as if measuring something. Distance, physique, reaction speed... he calculated various figures in his head.
Silence followed. That outfit... it wasn't unfamiliar.
Ah. Next door.
Muyeol silently and slowly wiped the fresh blood that had splashed on his jaw. The gesture of stroking the blood was slow and elegant enough to seem almost reverent. After lightly flicking the blood off his fingertips, he tilted his head ever so slightly. Finally, the corners of his mouth lifted just a bit.
Is there something on my face, kid?
His eyes were not smiling at all.
