Hong Il Tak, the bottom of Daemun Boy's High School, must survive by befriending the strongest guy. (Source: Lezhin Snack app) ~~ Adapted from the webtoon "High School Boy" (남고 소년) by Park Ji (박지).
In the cutthroat halls of Daemun Boy's High School, Hong Il Tak is the undisputed bottom of the social ladder—a constant target for bullies. To survive, he hatches a desperate plan: befriend the school's strongest student, the intimidatingly quiet Kang Woo Jin. What starts as a tactical alliance full of awkward encounters and reluctant protection slowly blossoms into something neither boy expected. Amidst hallway shoves and rooftop confrontations, their bond deepens into a tender, crinkly-eyed romance that feels more like a safe harbor than a battlefield. Adapted from Park Ji's beloved webtoon, this 50-episode Korean BL captures the ache and sweetness of first love set against a backdrop of school hierarchy, light action, and warm comedy. It's a familiar trope turned into a comforting hug of a series—proving that sometimes the strongest armor is a gentle heart.
