Eli is a young farmer, unhappy with the lifestyle and with his borderline abusive father. He's an animal lover and would rather hug one than kill it, but killing a pig is exactly what his father wants him to do. Eli refuses and runs away, not really having a destination in mind.

He ends up in the mysterious woods feared by locals, feeling reckless and really not caring about his fate. There he runs into a bizarre young man named Jin, who lives in the forest amongst the magical creatures there. He's scantily clad and gorgeous, and Eli is instantly more attracted to him than he's ever been to anyone. So when Jin offers him a place to stay, he's quick to accept.

But the creatures of the forest are as outraged as Eli at the killing of livestock, and chaos ensues. Jin is determined to use the commotion to take things to the next level with the innocent Eli.
