Low Fever

Synopsis

Kwon Taejung, the youngest son of Taesung Group and a dominant alpha known for causing trouble, is sent to the redevelopment zone “Daram-dong” after sparking controversy with a road rage incident. His assignment is to complete the demolition quietly within three months and clear out the remaining residents.

The biggest obstacle in front of him is Yeon Leekyeom, the last resident of Daram-dong and an omega. Burdened by relocation fraud, his grandfather’s hospital bills, and private loan debt, Leekyeom lives a precarious life under constant threat from thugs. When the documentary team behind Nightmare of the Demolition Village attempts to cover Leekyeom’s story again, Taejung approaches him under false pretenses to prevent any report that could interfere with the project.

Leekyeom mistakes him for the new manager of a security team, and Taejung allows the misunderstanding to continue while offering calculated kindness for his own purposes. However, drawn in by Leekyeom’s faint scent, Taejung begins to take an interest he never planned on having.

“Leekyeom, how about we date for two months?” “…What?” “Look, you don’t like thugs, but I seem alright. I don’t like kids, but I like you.” “…” “You won’t get another opportunity like this in your life.”

Though he approached him with hidden motives, even those motives begin to fade. Yeon Leekyeom, who is sick and tired of Taejung, the “thug”, yet cannot help but crumble in front of the gentleness he shows, finds himself drawn closer day by day…
