Ryu Nanmu is a high-ranking member of a ruthless crime syndicate, but his status brings him no joy. Years ago, he committed the ultimate transgression by falling in love with his boss's mistress and dreaming of raising her son, Pil-gyun, as his own. For this "sin," Nanmu was subjected to brutal punishment and forced to live a life of degradation, his hopes for a family shattered. He resigned himself to a bleak existence, believing the boy he once cherished was gone forever.
However, the past returns with a vengeance when a mysterious, violent assailant begins targeting the gang—revealed to be a grown-up Pil-gyun. No longer the sweet child Nanmu remembers, Pil-gyun has transformed into a calculated and deadly force, driven by a singular, twisted obsession: Nanmu himself. Blurring the lines between revenge and romance, Pil-gyun re-enters Nanmu's life with a shocking proposition and an unsettling address: "Dad."
From the acclaimed creators Brothers Without A Tomorrow, Miscreants and Mayhem is a gritty, high-stakes drama that delves into the darkest corners of desire. As Pil-gyun systematically dismantles the organization that tore them apart, Nanmu finds himself trapped in a volatile relationship that is as passionate as it is dangerous. Readers should prepare for a psychological thrill ride filled with intense action, complex moral ambiguity, and a romance that breaks every rule.
