This seems promising! It's funny now, but what if his illness comes back? Does anyone have the link for the korean novel (free raws)? Anyway, here's my summary of the story so far:
MC has leukemia, and decided to log in to a social messaging platform to let his friends know he is sick. He was having a hard time formulating a message to post. At first, he was trying to be calm, but then he realized he was scared. Basically, everything about his situtation just hit him and he cried. Then suddenly a spam message/ad popped up. It was the ML selling himself. MC was so ticked because he was trying to write probably one of the most important messages of his life and he was being interrupted by prostitution ads. So he messaged ML telling him to stop living like that and that he's an embarrasment as a man.
ML got angry and announced online that MC bought his services just to humiliate him. MC got angry too and thought he might die anyway so why not punish this kid? So MC made another account, tricked the ML and crossdressed to meet him. He planned to report him to the authorities while he was in the bathroom, but ML discovered it.
We then learned how ML was from the orphanage and got tricked by a hyung he knew there. This hyung said they will live together when he comes out of the orphanage and took the support money (around 5 million korean won) for house deposit. Then he said his gf got into an accident so he borrowed it, and even suggested that the ML sell sex to earn money so he can pay for a room to stay. [F*ck that hyung!]
MC wanted to help ML and give him money but ML didn’t want to accept because he had his pride. So MC bought his virginity and added an interest rate (50% per year, hence the title). He said he would collect it later, but of course he didn’t actually want to do that. He just genuinely wanted to help ML, since he wasn’t sure if he was going to live or die while being treated for leukemia, so he figured he might as well help a desperate orphan. He also told him he should be an actor because ML is quite handsome. 5 years later, they meet again as actor and director.
