However, he is as beautiful and talented as ever… Iwanaga’s pace, which repeatedly speaks sweetly to him… His work and private life are at the mercy of him!? Ideals, reality, pride… An over-30 boy who can’t be as honest as he used to be meets his soulmate again. What will happen to this frustrating “second” love, full of tactics…!?
