Gray Shelter episodes 3 and 4, which aired on Thursday, April 18, 2024, revolve around a complicated relationship between two men. Starring Jang Woo-Young and Lee Jae-Bin, the Korean BL drama’s latest episode features a change in the lead characters’ relationship dynamics.
In the previous episode, Cha Soo-Hyuk (Jang Woo-Young) and Lee Yoon-Dae (Lee Jae-Bin) first met when their respective parents decided to marry each other. Yoon-Dae, who had a difficult upbringing due to his abusive father, found solace in Soo-Hyuk’s company. But, in a turn of events, Soo-Hyuk didn’t let her mother marry Yoon-Dae’s father and, hence, left Yoon-Dae all alone. After several years, they reunited on a bitter note.
Despite their bitter relationship, Soo-Hyuk invites Yoon-Dae to his apartment to stay after the latter becomes homeless in episode 3. Slowly, the dynamic between the two changes.

On the other hand, Soo-Hyuk meets his mother, who informs him that Yoon-Dae’s father is remarrying, leaving Soo-Hyuk in shock. For context, Yoon-Dae had told Soo-Hyuk in episode 1 that his father had died. This was one of the reasons why the latter seemed to be more concerned about Yoon-Dae.
Meanwhile, Yoon-Dae breaks down while talking to his father on a call, saying he should leave him alone and let him live. At home, Yoon-Dae waits for Soo-Hyuk for hours while the latter gets drunk with his colleague.
When he arrives home in a drunken state, Yoon-Dae becomes furious. Seeing him throwing tantrums, Soo-Hyuk gets angry and asks, “Why did you lie about him [his father] being dead?” Yoon-Dae counterattacks by asking why Soo-Hyuk let him stay over and why he cares for him. The two have a major argument, with Soo-Hyuk shouting, “You could’ve just dismissed me as an idiot and should not have come…” Yoon-Dae interrupts and pulls Soo-Hyuk towards him for a kiss. Episode 4 ends with the two sharing a passionate kiss.
Gray Shelter will return with the finale episode next Thursday, April 25, 2024, on Heavenly.
