Can you refuse a tutoring job that pays one million won per hour?
At least I can’t.
Lee Seongyeom, a college student fiercely saving money while dreaming of independence.
The place he arrived at, lured by the condition of receiving a huge sum as tutoring pay, was a house where gangsters lived.
“Hey, you pyramid scheme bastard! I told you if you come one more time, I’d bury you in the yard with only your head sticking out!”
From the first visit, he almost got stabbed with a knife and was denounced as a pyramid schemer.
He thought this absolutely wouldn’t work, but, “Room and board provided, plus five million per month. Of course, separate from the tutoring fee. How about it?”
“Thank you! I’ll work hard!”
And so it happened.
He resolved to endure just one month for the money, but…
“It’s over already? I was secretly looking forward to it. You know, like a gangster and tutor playing with fire, something like that?”
The boss of this place, Kwon Siwon, is too handsome!
A sixteen-year age difference, a cool impression, and even the head of a gangster organization.
He’s clearly a dangerous man at first glance.
“H-hyung…. I’m in pain….”
“Well, well. Only at times like this do you call me hyung.”
He keeps giving his heart away.
And then there’s the fake romance contract he offers.
“Choose. Will you earn more than now, or will you quit?”
A contract romance proposed by a gangster boss… should he really accept it?
A romance contract is a popular trope in fiction—particularly C-Dramas, K-Dramas, and romance novels—where characters enter a fake marriage or dating agreement for convenience, business, or financial reasons.
