In the dangerous underworld of espionage, Kang Shihyeon is a legend. Operating under the code name "Red Candy"—a moniker earned from bathing in the blood of his enemies—he is the Vulture organization's most lethal asset. His newest mission requires him to trade his guns for guile: he must infiltrate the life of Park Hajun, a college professor whose missing father left behind blueprints for a revolutionary and deadly weapon. Shihyeon's orders are clear: get close, seduce the target, and steal the intel.
Shihyeon expects an easy operation, but he severely underestimates the professor. Hajun proves to be more than just an academic; he possesses a disarming charm and an intensity that catches the veteran spy off guard. What begins as a game of manipulation quickly spirals into a genuine and steamy affair, where the agent finds himself overpowered by the very man he was sent to deceive. The hunter becomes the hunted, not by a weapon, but by an undeniable attraction that threatens to compromise everything.
As the Vulture agency grows impatient and dangerous rivals close in on the weapon's secrets, Shihyeon is forced into a corner. He must choose between the cold professionalism that has defined his life and the man who has captured his heart. Created by Han Se, Red Candy is an explosive Boys' Love webtoon that masterfully blends adrenaline-pumping action with intense romantic drama, keeping readers on the edge of their seats until the very last page.
