Tan's Title
Tender Night
For Choi Sungwon, nothing is more important than being recognized by his mother. Of course, the fact that his mother is the CEO of a major corporation doesn’t exactly make things easy. All his life, Sungwon has known that he has certain expectations he must follow: dress well, be polite, and most importantly…be an alpha. Cruelly born a beta, Sungwon spends his days living a lie, presenting himself as the hardworking, accomplished, recessive alpha he wishes he could be. But once he meets college student-slash-bartender Park Hansol, things start to change… What if he’s tired of pretending the be the perfect alpha? Perhaps he just wants a simply, happy relationship. But if there’s one thing Sungwon knows, it’s that there’s nothing more cruel than unconditional kindness…
Checkmate
Soohyun doesn’t have a “first love,” but he definitely has a “first hate” - his high school classmate Eunsung. A smooth-mannered all-star, Eunsung snaps up first place in everything, leaving Soohyun always trailing behind in second place. Winning out over Eunsung is the one thing that motivates Soohyun, but after graduation, Soohyun contents himself with a dull, mediocre life. One day, Eunsung appears on the news, knee-deep in scandal and, for once, not perfectly at ease...lighting Soohyun’s inner fires once again. Desperate to see a fallen Eunsung with his own eyes, Soohyun jumps into the fray as a reporter, and gets Eunsung to strike an outrageous deal with him.
