Synopsis
Changdeok shelters bleeding teen Jongwu for nightly meals, suspecting dark secrets behind their cohabitation.
One snowy winter evening, Changdeok spots a high schooler crouched in front of his favorite restaurant, blood running ice-cold in the falling snow. Lured in by the promise of meal made just like the restaurant's, Changdeok ends up inviting the boy—Jongwu—into his home; after all, Changdeok's life is as dry as day-old rice, and food is his only joy. So when Jongwu offers to cook him a delicious dinner every night in exchange for a place to stay, he reluctantly agrees. But as their unusual cohabitation begins, Changdeok can't shake this bloody feeling that Jongwoo might be hiding something... Hopefully being a good Samaritan doesn't come back around to bite him in the neck- er, butt... (Source: Lezhin Entertainment)
