The whole thing feels like The Maltese Falcon meets The CW but R Rated BL. 

I don't like reviewing things I haven't finished yet usually, but people seem really confused by this comic (idkw), and, admittedly the copy blurb isn't ... accurate. So quick explanation and minor spoilers ahead for first handful of chapters. Essentially, the whole thing is a mystery story with a side of mafia family drama. 

The story starts with some anon selling a USB to a suit and getting both cash and the crap beat out of him by the suit's goons. the usb is a video that the suit then watches- a video of a really old guy and a young guy having sex, the old guy having a heart attack mid coitus, the young guy calling someone on his phone for help, another young guy showing up and arguing with Mr. "I'm so good at sex you'll die", before yg#1 leaves and YG#2 proceeds to curse ... then strip down and masturbate until he ejaculates on the corpse. Mr. Suit is amused watching the video.

So the deal is this- Dead Old Dude is a really famous and powerful chaebol. YG#1 is a STRAIGHT actor going gay-for-pay on the casting couch. And this isn't the first time. YG#2 is YG#1's younger brother, gay, and a lawyer- our MC, Soheon. tl;dr: Soheon is a genius but an asshole and has been cleaning up his brother's fuck ups forever. When asked to clean up this MESS, Soheon decided that since the uber-famous old dude clearly died mid-coitus and in an apartment under Soheon's name (brother was freeloading), it was best to create real-fake evidence he was the sex partner, blank face the cops/ambulance already on their way, and trust that the old dude's family and their PR department would hush it up (which they did). It would have worked perfectly EXCEPT

THERE WAS A SECRET CAMERA! And Mr. Suit is Soheon's boss' boss' boss. And the will is missing. And Old Dude's son is dumb and villainous and a creeper. And now everyone interested in the will, the inheritance, corporations, subsidiaries, etc are engaging in crime because they all fucking hate each other.

And Mr. Suit, Soheon's CEO, is one of Old Dude's potential inheritors, and has opaque motivations and desires... and just really enjoys blackmailing Soehon with the video of Soheon jacking it onto the corpse of the country's most beloved recently deceased elder. Whether that blackmail is for unpaid overtime, blowjobs, or signing up to use his amazing mad lawyering skills for criminals.

The Mystery is that Soheon has absolutely no fucking clue wtf is going on and is slowly finding out, torn between being able to make better choices if he knows what the consequences actually will be (in hindsight he wishes he'd let his brother take the fall) VS not wanting to get more involved and being backed into a corner vis a vis perjury/etc.

Swapping is a theme. Starting with the brothers literally swapping places with the corpse, to people swapping spit, documents being swapped, social roles, etc etc.

The whole thing feels like The Maltese Falcon meets The CW but R Rated BL. There ya go.
