Even a Lonely Squirrel Has Its Burrow

Kang Ga-Ram, a squirrel shapeshifter, lost both his guardian and his home in an instant. While living in the park in his squirrel form to escape loan sharks demanding money he never borrowed, he meets Samu-Heon, a suspicious yet handsome man. Feeling at ease with his kindness as he hands him nuts and cranberries every day, Ga-Ram unexpectedly finds herself destined to become his pet squirrel.

*“Shall we eat, my little squirrel?”

“Are squirrels usually this smart?”*

Unaware that he is a shapeshifter, Ga-Ram finds Samu-Heon’s treatment of him as a pet both burdensome and yet he finds himself tamed by his sweet touch. Then one day, he is shocked to discover that the man who had been so kind is actually the director of the loan shark company that had been tormenting her…

“Squeak! (I’m a male! An adult man, no less!)”
