The Gap of Misreading

Haehyeon, once a Beta, suddenly undergoes a secondary gender mutation and develops a romantic relationship with his former tutor, Sirok. They eventually marry—but what awaits him is a life of piercing loneliness.

A marriage without love, held together only by pity.
Worn down by the absence of a husband whose face he rarely sees, one day Haehyeon witnesses his husband’s affair—and finally decides to end things.

“Divorce is not an option.”

But with his husband beginning to act like a completely different person…

“Then you should get a second partner too. Let me be the bad one.”

…and a brash, morally unhinged younger part-timer suddenly appearing in his life, Haehyeon’s once-muted daily existence spirals into chaos.

Mature, competent older husband?

Or bold, reckless younger man?

What lies at the end of this mess?

Character Info

♣ • Soo (Bottom)

♣ • Lee Haehyeon

A breathtaking beauty whose self-esteem has been thoroughly wrecked by a long, unrequited love.

He clung desperately to Sirok—whom he fell for at first sight while working a part-time job—and after a sudden secondary gender mutation, their relationship progressed into marriage after several years of dating.

But what lay behind the union was nothing more than pity.

Haehyeon holds a deep guilt toward Sirok, who couldn’t bring himself to abandon such a pitiful, pathetic person.

And deep down, Haehyeon knows—this has to end someday.

♣ • Gong (Top) #1

♣ • Seo Sirok

A man with it all—an impressive family background, striking looks, and dominant Alpha traits.

His only flaw? He’s constantly too busy.

Naturally poised and always seeming to look down from above, he’s hard to read, his thoughts a mystery.

But Haehyeon, drawn in by the occasional moments of kindness Sirok shows, could never bring himself to give up on him.

♣ • Do Gyeol

A spoiled, carefree man who’s never gone without. Flippant words, even flippanter actions—that’s the essence of Do Gyeol.

After meeting Haehyeon, everything starts to spiral.

One day he realizes he’s neck-deep in an emotional swamp… and doesn’t really care.

He thought he’d mess around with this naïve guy and leave him too jaded to cry, but somehow… it feels like he’s the one who’s screwed.
