Great White Shark No. 1
Status: Ongoing Released: 2 Free Chapter Every Monday
"I see a separation in your future. Three times, in fact."
Go Seok-jun had scoffed at the words of a charlatan he'd met by chance on the street, but as if it were a lie come true, his wife served him divorce papers and he received disciplinary action at work.
"This year, it'd be dangerous for you to go near water."
Despite the charlatan's warning, Go Seok-jun is demoted to Yongju County, a small seaside city—his hometown where he was born and raised. And there before him appears Baek Sang-eun, the son of his older brother's friend whom he'd cared for in childhood, even changing his diapers. The boy who used to follow him around calling "Uncle, Uncle" has become a fine man, unimaginably so.
"As long as Auntie doesn't catch us, it's fine, isn't it?"
His head already aching enough, Baek Sang-eun makes an absurd demand of Go Seok-jun. He will escape this tiresome sea and return to the city no matter what. Even if there's someone clinging to him, crying and begging him not to go.

"Uncle, please eat a lot."
"Sure, you too."
Without removing his sunglasses, he tilted his head in a slight nod, having pushed them up onto his forehead like a headband. His hair swept back without any fuss looked refreshing. Maybe he should cut his hair, he thought briefly, but then remembered the sight of him wielding scissors recklessly and asked something else instead.
"Do you have a girlfriend?"
"Wow. That's such an ahjussi thing to ask."
"I am an ahjussi. And family can ask each other these things."
"Then. Does Uncle have a girlfriend?"
Baek Sang-eun's eyes moved to the fourth finger of Go Seok-jun's left hand. A long-faded ring hung there like lingering attachment.
