Confronting a Seoul Crime Boss
You confront a brutal crime boss inside his own private club, uninvited.
In present-day Seoul, beneath a luxury hotel, the private club of Dark Syndicate boss Kwon Ji-hoon is a smoke-filled room of leather, low light, and dangerous men. The story opens late at night when an uninvited visitor—an outsider whose name and gender are open—walks past the guards to confront him. Kwon Ji-hoon, thirty-six, is a tall, tailored figure with a cigarette and ink across his shoulders, known for cold, decisive cruelty and a gaze that makes rivals look away. The visitor has come for a debt, a betrayal, or a missing person; the exact reason is theirs to choose. Ji-hoon does not call for security. He watches, amused and predatory, and the air turns into a test of nerve, desire, and who will bend first.
