Pearl Boy: Ignite the Dawn

Baek Seung-Hyun has lived in the shadows his whole life, nothing more than the deadly right hand of yakuza boss Shin Jae-Il. But now, Jae-Il is married. And Seung-Hyun, for the first time in years, is left behind. Drifting through empty streets on the night after the wedding, Seung-Hyun crosses paths with Yuta, a delicate ghost from his time in Japan. But what should have been a quiet reunion over a drink turns sharp fast. Yuta’s sweetness curdles, his words cut deep, and before Seung-Hyun can make sense of it everything begins to burn. Uninvited and unrelenting, Yuta storms into his life, dragging with him the weight of the past and something far more dangerous. Seung-Hyun begins to fear that dawn, when it comes, won’t bring light. Only fire. (Source: Lezhin US) Note: Includes three extra chapters.
