Summary
Being a poor man in the Roaring Twenties was tough. It was even tougher if you were a Chicago Korean. Struggling to get by at a prestigious Midwest college, Seunghyun thought he knew that better than anybody – at least until one boozy, jazz-filled night in a South Side alley: the night he met the low-born and high-priced Kwon Jiyong. And then he realized he knew nothing at all.
*With Prohibition in full swing and the Chicago Outfit poised to take control of the city in a storm of political corruption and gunfire, a chemistry student and a rich man’s plaything fight to survive and thrive amid the throes of unrequited love, racial tension, and the chaos accompanying the rise of Al Capone.*

Summary
Seunghyun in love was a romantic and an idealist. Jiyong found that sweet and incredibly refreshing after his long years of professional sex. But was it practical? He looked forward to them finding out – together.
*Jiyong and Seunghyun escape Chicago and embark on a new showbiz career in the years leading up to a time of intense upheaval in U.S. history: the arrest of Al Capone, the Wall Street Crash, the beginning of the Great Depression, and the end of the American circus’s Gilded Age.*

Summary
Jiyong gave his quarry a closer inspection and smiled at what he saw: the young man was tall and strikingly handsome. Jiyong couldn’t say young and handsome men were particularly his type, but then again he didn’t meet many of ‘em. Better than his good looks, noted Jiyong, was that he was Asian! Jiyong had never kissed such an attractive and unusual specimen before; he’d be the perfect birthday present.
(A prequel to the fics Second City Bombshell and Tales From The Top: exploring Jiyong’s teenage life in 1910s Chicago, the precarious relationship he forms with one of its most powerful leaders – and how he reaches the point at which he might just risk it all for a penniless Chemistry student.)
