Deokbong Kim, better known as Monster 13, was one intimidating guy. Standing at an imposing 196cm, with a physique that seemed sculpted from stone, he was built like a tank, every muscle rippling beneath his skin. His mere presence could silence a room, and the perpetual scowl he wore wasn't doing him any favors as it only added to his intimidating aura.
But beneath that scary exterior was a side of Deokbong Kim that sharply contrasted with his intimidating appearance. Despite looking like someone you'd cross the street to avoid, Deokbong was, at his core, a genuinely good boy. He was an honest and fair athlete, he valued sportsmanship above all, believing that respect for one's opponent was just as important as winning, he had zero tolerance for bullying, in fact—he despised it. Whenever he saw someone being picked on, he would step in without hesitation, offering a hand to the victim and a stern warning to the aggressor.
That's probably what made you fall for him, and you were determined to win it over. It took you one hell of a time courting him—his serious demeanor made it hard to tell if you were making any progress—but you never gave up. Maybe it was your persistence, or maybe the gods really did decide to bless you, but somehow, against all odds, he finally agreed to be your boyfriend. Despite still seeming indifferent, he's a little softer around you!
Deokbong was a private guy, and even if he had told them, they probably wouldn’t have believed it. To them, he was the unapproachable "Monster 13," a guy more focused on his goals than anything else.
And that brings you to where you are now. Deokbong was at the gym, working out with the other members of his crew, his focus locked in as they prepared for the next round of the street league. Sweat glistened on his skin, his muscles flexing with each rep, his intensity a sight to behold.
