가면속의 사랑 #17

살아남기 위해 택했던 남자로서의 현빈에게 운명처럼 다가온 사랑은
새장에 갇힌 새처럼 오직 가면 속에서만 타오르는데.

남장소녀- 여고생의 가슴 찢는 사랑!
어리기에 더 아픈 그리움! 갖고 싶은 너!

같은 남자를 사랑하는 운하?
피투성이 사랑에 빠지는 치호!

네 입술은 영원한 내꺼!
그녀를 둘러싸고 조여오는 죽음의 노래!

This fantastic manhwa is about a little girl named Frog who has been used by bad people to sell gum in buses. She hides her gender after a nice woman who was also being used by the bad people had been thrown into a brothel. One day her little brother is murdered by the gangsters and she loses all reason to sell gum anymore. She runs away from the bad people and is taken in as a bodyguard for the daughter of a rich chairman. However, she is only allowed to become a bodyguard and live with them if she is to hide her true gender and live like a guy forever. She agrees and is then named Hyun-Bin. Eventually, she starts attending school as a male with her mistress and gives up on any feelings she has of her own. She learns to live like a robot until one day when the mistress' love interest begins to favor Hyun-Bin even though Hyun-Bin is a guy to everyone. That guy is Lee Yun-Ha. As Hyun-Bin tries to help get her mistress, Yae Ha, closer to Yun Ha, misunderstandings are caused and love heads Hyun Bin's way. Eventually Yun Ha discovers the fact that Hyun Bin is a girl and immediately asks her if she would be his girlfriend. Obviously their love is mutual but Hyun Bin is to live as a male and not get in Yae Ha's way and take away her man. When Yae Ha gets mad that she is being beaten by a "guy" she starts saying bad things and acting cold towards Hyun Bin. Later Yae Ha's grandpa, the chairman, sees that Hyun Bin is getting in the way of Yae Ha and Yun Ha's future-to-be, Hyun Bin is thrown in a camp away from home where she is tortured. They make her bald, make her fight, and exercise until she passes out. After passing out, they threaten her that they will inject guy hormones into her body if she doesn't keep running. To prevent that, she is tortured for half a year until she finally returns back to the Yae Ha. While Hyun Bin was away, Yae Ha and Yun Ha do not get any closer and Yun Ha keeps missing Hyun Bin. Then, Hyun Bin runs away and begins living with a gangster that agrees to take care of her still not knowing that she is a girl. Hyun Bin begins to waver and starts liking the guy Bi Rak that she is living with.

The constant gang stuff and fighting are starting to tire me a bit. Please tell me I'm not the only one.
