Description
A boy with a sad past and a dark present. Future...? Definitely blur.
Ilhoon, after his family's tragic end 12 years ago, lives his daily nightmare with his despotic aunt, trapped in her own plans and intrigues. His only way to escape? His gang, the fear of Seoul's underground life, BtoB. And his rapping skills, which actually brought him closer to his fellow gangsters, in first place. But- sometimes- even these, even his too willing girlfriend, aren't enough to burn out his boiling anger and his devastating melancholy.
A girl with a blur past and a suffocating present. Future...? Planned.
Nia is a 17-year-old mom without having her own kids. Losing her mom since she was a little child and her father's constant absence at his job, left her responsbile for her house and her oppa, Yookwon, too early. In her daily program, her brother's messy childhood friends and current gang, Block B, are usually added, along with school and homework, with which she has to put up all alone. Being just an average student in school and having only one, crazy, best friend, she wouldn't describe her life as exciting. Let alone her father's and brother's-sometimes- suffocating love and protection.
Can anyone really predict what happens when these two cross their paths?
"Because, you know... Sometimes, you must first hit the bottom, to reach the top."

Foreword
Ilhoon's POV
The sun is shining and the light breeze that is coming from my open window is gently blowing my hair backwards, leaving my forehead exposed, something that I really enjoy whenever I am in the car.
There are some grey clouds, somewhere in the horizon, but they don't seem really threatening.
Dad is driving casually; he's a really good driver. The radio is and a trot song is playing, mom happily singing to it. Dad loves her voice. The girl next to me, my noona, is trying to imitate mom, causing laughter, though, to our parents, since she doesn't know most of the lyrics.
I feel so light and happy. We are going to dad's village to visit his family. We are pretty close.
Suddenly, the breaks of our car screamed.
Dad gasped, mom shouted something, my sister screamed hysterically.
I only managed to close my eyes firmly.
Seconds seemed to pass like hours
The car abruptly stopped.
A crashing sound.
The windows smashed, as the car rolled upside- down.
My noona isn't next to me anymore.
The radio stopped playing.
Mom isn't singing anymore.
Something is dripping from my forehead, down to my eyes.
I tried to shout but nothing came out.
Why is everyone so silent?
And everything so dark?
I tried to move but an intense pain crossed my whole body and slowly my senses left me.
I opened my eyes, a yell of agony coming out of my lips and my heart beating like crazy. My breath is heavy and my forehead has sweated.
It's not a surprise though. This is what happens every time I see that nightmare.
Which was actually a reality, 12 years ago.
A reality that left me an orphan and forced me to an every day, real nightmare and a dark life.
