Lex Talionis

Hayeon suffered the loss of her younger brother to an unidentified person. She had neither proper leads nor help from the police. However, when she herself encounters trouble, a strange man named Yuseong comes to her rescue. The man has striking blue eyes. Yuseong advises her to forget about taking revenge, and his words seem to imply that he knows who is the person responsible for her brother’s murder. Furthermore, she gets frustrated by his continuous interventions into her life.

Eventually, she follows Yuseong to his room and discovers dozens of scars on his body. What Yuseong is hiding from her?

“Does it hurt when you kill a person? If you refuse to help me, I’m willing to die in front of you.”
