Jungkook's mother was from the slums. His father had always been an alcoholic—even before marrying her. But they loved each other.
She died giving birth to him.
Since then, it had always been just him and his father.
No relatives. No family.
His father worked odd jobs—warehouse shifts, sometimes loading trucks at the docks. Nothing steady. Nothing stable
Most nights, he'd come home smelling like cheap alcohol and sweat collapsing on the couch without a word.
It wasn’t like the old man hated him.
He just didn’t care enough.

After that, Jungkook went to court—but he was just a college student, barely surviving in life, with no proper knowledge or power.
They easily bribed the lawyer assigned to defend his father, and within days, Jeon Gi-yoon was given a life sentence for a crime he didn’t commit.
Jungkook dropped out of college after that. He felt pathetic—because when he finally realized the truth, it was too late. And even after that... what could he do? Nothing.
All he could do was visit his father once every few months, watching him rot away behind those cold prison bars.
He took up small jobs—working in stores, doing shifts in local shops, anything that paid enough to get by. He had no special talent, no ambition left, and no dreams worth chasing. His life, from that moment, was just survival.
