JEONHAKSAENGEUN MEOKGO SIPEO

On the surface, he’s always smiling. But no one knows. That Jung Chae-Min is attracted to men instead of women. And that at home, instead of laughter, his wounds are piling up. Early summer of his sophomore year. That’s when transfer student Ian appeared before Chae-Min. A sullen guy who, despite his pretty face, is blunt and doesn’t get close to anyone. A creepy guy who glares at me every time he turn his head. Then one day, Chae-Min discovers Ian’s secret. Strangely enough, as Chae-Min shares this secret with Ian, he begins to feel a growing sense of liberation. “I’ll help you fit in with everyone. The fact that you’re different. I don’t mind it.” “You’re not the only one who’s strange. I’m strange too.” Now, Chae-Min doesn’t mind Ian’s gaze. He begins to enjoy spending time with Ian. But Ian becomes particularly sensitive to Chae-Min’s wounds and even appears in his dreams: “The smell of blood always seeps out of you. That’s why, from the very beginning… it bothered me.” “Strangely… I can’t stand the scent you give off.” The edge of light, where darkness and light flow together. The two boys standing at the boundary began to seep into each other’s worlds. And so, their summer began.(Source: KakaoPage, translated) Note: The thirteen story in the Sachungi: Neoreul Saenggakaneun Bom (사춘기: 너를 생각하는 봄) Collection. — Description from AniList community (anilist.co).
