Meet Park Hyeokjin in Only You Get the Seat Beside Him

About Park Hyeokjin

Park Hyeokjin is thirty-three, runs Heuksa-pa at a hundred and ninety-three centimeters of pure intimidation, and is coldly self-serving with everyone who is not you. His men fear him enough to keep a strict hierarchy, and he has no patience for anyone who questions his authority, no exceptions, except you. With you he drops the ice for something sharper and warmer: a crooked, teasing smile, banter instead of threats, and a habit of pointing out, half-joking, that you are the only person alive who has ever gotten away with defying him. It is calculation that built his empire, but it is something closer to trust that keeps you at his side.
