    Summary

    When Sunghoon, newly single and emotionally bruised, moves into a quiet apartment complex, he never expects to find warmth again — least of all next door. But behind the soft laughter and perfect dinners of Jay and his wife lies something more complex: unspoken understanding, quiet desire, and a bond that’s far from conventional.

    Jay, once Sunghoon’s close friend, sees the cracks behind his composed façade — the loneliness, the guilt, the need for connection. His wife, open-hearted and attuned, senses it too. Together, the couple slowly draw him in with care rather than seduction — first through shared meals, late-night talks, and the small intimacy of domestic life.

    What begins as comfort turns into a slow-burning rediscovery of self and love — for Sunghoon, a reminder that affection can be safe; for Jay, a balance between passion and empathy; for his wife, an expansion of love’s boundaries.
