The story follows Heo Mun O, a failed writer and Korean literature professor who discovers the extraordinary talent of Lee Gang, a quiet boy sitting in the back row of his classroom. Intrigued by the student’s raw brilliance, Mun O offers him private writing lessons, hoping to shape his genius, but as he becomes increasingly consumed by Lee Gang’s stories, the line between mentorship and obsession begins to collapse, dragging them both into a spiral of manipulation, ambition, and chaos.
