      by Emerlyn —  "Song Yi-heon! Let's play soccer!" The boys from the same class called out to Kim Deuk-pal as he came out sucking on an ice pop he bought from the school cafeteria for dessert after lunch. They were heading to the playground to play a game of soccer during the remaining lunch break, waving their arms above their heads. "Hey! Didn't you hear us?" When Song Yi-heon didn't come, they ran over to put their arms around his shoulders and tried to take him to the playground, but Kim Deuk-pal, who…

      by Emerlyn — To confess a truth that he couldn't tell others, Kim Deuk-pal didn't actually yearn for "university" itself but for a "life after graduating from university." A normal life of attending a university campus, graduating, working at a company, getting married, having children, and growing old. But since all he knew how to do was gangster work, he wondered if he could even get a proper job, let alone get married. Some of his colleagues and subordinates met good women, left the gang, and got married, but such…

      by Emerlyn — The destination the two took the taxi to was Bukchon. In Seoul, where towering skyscrapers abound, this was a neighborhood where closely packed traditional hanok houses displayed an elegance that didn't lag behind despite their low height. Se-kyung, a Seoul native, had often visited this hanok village when touring Gyeongbokgung and Changdeokgung palaces, but the path Song Yi-heon was leading him down was unfamiliar. In contrast, Song Yi-heon, who had taken off his windbreaker due to the heat from…

      by Emerlyn — Confronting Se-kyung's provocation, Song Yi-heon twisted his lips. His lips curved leisurely, even though he was overwhelmed and flushed red all over. Suddenly, Song Yi-heon's heel rounded Se-kyung's iliac bone. Making eye contact as if to show off, his sole, which had been caressing his iliac crest, slowly moved upward. It traced his sculpted abdomen and reached his chest. The arch of his smooth foot meshed seamlessly with his firm pectoral muscles and stopped. The area where his feverish sole met his…

      by Emerlyn — As Kim Deuk-pal returned to the classroom, he opened the locker attached to the very back wall.  The lockers, assigned in numerical order, were tall and spacious enough to easily fit a basketball. After neatly stacking his textbooks, workbooks, and gym clothes inside, he shoved the basketball on top. Then, silently, he gave a word of advice to the spirit of the person who was supposed to use that locker, but whose whereabouts were unknown. ‘If you plan to come back, do it after…

      GBH 86 Cover
      by Emerlyn — The truth behind the organization's name wasn't as grand as one might expect. The culprit was a carbonated drink with the same name on the table when they decided to form the organization. If that was the case, they might as well have named it after Pepsi. Kim Dong-su, who was about to give a lengthy speech about the importance of names in life, tightly shut his mouth as he recalled his brother's name. Right, what's in a name? It's the person that matters. If a person is of high quality, does it matter…

      by Emerlyn —  After being absent for several days, Choi Se-kyung returned to school, where his classmates, now aware of his situation, offered belated condolences. Since then, he attended classes, ate meals, and studied, with days passing like a squirrel's spinning wheel. As early June approached, the early heat of summer arrived. Students who felt the heat wore light clothing to school. On the day Kim Deuk-pal saw students dressed in light clothing, he rushed home after school to rummage through his…

      GBH 15 Cover
      by Emerlyn — As the new year dawned, Choi Se-kyung did not board the plane to Canada. The surface reason was wanting to focus on college entrance exams as a high school senior, but the real cause was his poor condition since the night he failed to find Song Yi-heon. Rather than going out and being unable to process his emotions properly, he chose to avoid meeting people under the guise of studying. Only when he went to report to the police station did Se-kyung realize how little he knew about Song Yi-heon. His name,…
