Even a Lonely Squirrel Has Its Burrow

Samuhun: Age 32. A snake shifter and an executive at Mirae Capital. Born to a snake shifter mother and an ordinary father, he is a half-shifter. Contrary to his cold exterior, he cherishes small animals, having devotedly cared for and tearfully bid farewell to five pet hamsters. One day, his heart is stolen by a squirrel that appears before him. Kang Garam: Age 21. A squirrel shifter and college student. While his true form is an adorable squirrel, he has a soft and handsome appearance. After losing his parents in an accident at a young age and then losing the grandmother who raised him, he resolves to avoid further separations. Amid this determination, he encounters a man who extends a warm hand. Kang Garam, a squirrel shifter who lost both his guardian and home in an instant. While evading loan sharks demanding repayment for a debt he never owed, he hides in a park in his squirrel form. There, he meets a suspiciously handsome man, Samuhun. Garam finds comfort in Samuhun’s kindness as the man brings him nuts and cranberries daily. Before he knows it, he’s on the path to becoming Samuhun’s pet squirrel. “Come to think of it… Is our squirrel male?” “Our squirrel, are you hungry?” “Are squirrels usually this smart?” Though Garam feels awkward being treated as a pet by Samuhun, who doesn’t realize he’s a shifter, he finds himself drawn to the man’s sweet gestures. Then one day, Garam discovers that Samuhun, who had been so kind to him, is actually an executive at the loan shark company that has been tormenting him.
