Summary
Beomgyu has a propensity for ruining everything good in his life. He tells himself he’s just beating it to the punch. Kill it before it kills you, right? But as soon as Yeonjun leaves, he wants him to come back. He’s never, ever wanted Yeonjun gone, and yet he can’t stop pushing when he means to say I need you.
It wasn’t always like this. He wants to go back. Back to late nights and cramming in a twin-sized bed and fearing the future instead of living it. It wasn’t always like this.
+++
“When whatever you’re running from catches up to you again,” the boy says, interrupting Beomgyu’s motion of putting his headphones back on. “Just come back here.”

Summary
“My father loved me because I am the son of his favored concubine. My brother loves me because he feels guilty that I was the one hurt when someone mistakenly tried to kill me instead of him, and you, Jeongin,” Jisung said, words bitter on his tongue.
Jeongin kept staring at him, his eyes keeping secrets Jisung would never be able to unravel.
“You love me out of duty. Nothing else.”
Or, Jisung has always known his life was not his own. As a prince, he belongs to his country, but he yearns to belong to Jeongin, who should be his soulmate but unfairly isn't.

Summary
He gestures at the painting. "This is the first thing I've painted in a long time that looks the way I wanted it to look. That actually captures what I was trying to capture." His hand drops. His voice goes softer. "Thank you, hyung."
For their eighth anniversary, Chan sets out to give each of his members a gift that, in his opinion, best encapsulates the words "I love you." The only problem? He’s physically incapable of keeping a secret, and the universe, plus his seven nosy, well-meaning members, keeps foiling his plans in increasingly ridiculous ways.
Or, alternatively, seven times Chan tries to surprise his members with the perfect gift and gets caught in the act, plus the one time they surprise him back.

Summary
Jiung and Intak are lovers.
But they are not lovers.
(When Intak meets Choi Jiung, who cares and pays attention in the smallest ways—like that one time he’d taken off his shirt so Intak didn’t burn his hands on a hot metal pan (they were baking brownies) taking it out of the oven—and takes the time to get to know Intak and entertains his questions and has private conversations with him even when they’re with the group, he thinks maybe the bad luck is over. He’s found someone who gets him. Who might even want him back.)

Summary
Shota's a simple man with simple needs: once a drab gray salesman in a drab gray office, he's since left behind the world of business and taught himself to slow down, go his own way, and put life first. His summer unfolds with the promise of the unplanned. Anything can happen... although he'll probably just chill around Seoul, teach some yoga classes, work out, play with his dog, and dodge his mother's attempts at marrying him off.
Jongseob is a hell of a lot more complicated, though he really wishes he wasn't. All he wants to do is to live, safe and happy, with his kids, but he still has the daunting process of facing his husband in court and finalizing his divorce standing in his way. Single parenthood is hard. Working a full-time job and going to school is hard. Hating everything about yourself and having to put on a smiling face for your two kids is hard. Just about the only thing he has to make life easier is a golden-retriever-coded himbo of a neighbor, who doesn't seem put-off by Jongseob's sorry excuse for an existence.
Or: Shota teaches Jongseob the importance of self-care, self-love, and even the occasional bit of reckless hedonism.

Summary
“Hyunjin is dead,” Jeongin breathed. He looked up to see the others stare back at him with wide eyes, Hyunjin towering over them at the back, the light from the window in the hallway lighting up his figure. “They told me he was dead.”
Hyunjin's dark eyes found Jeongin’s tearful ones.
“Not dead,” Hyunjin said with a poisonous smile. “Just gay.”
Or: Jeongin has spent years mourning the loss of his first love, a love he was told by his church was sinful and wrong, but one he just couldn't stop from blooming in his chest. Now, years later, Jeongin meets Hyunjin again, very alive and also very different from how he used to be back in their shared church.

After university, Yatora Yaguchi and Yakumo Takahashi become roommates — then something more. Together, they blur the lines between painting and sculpture, crafting artworks that seem to breathe beyond their canvases. As their twin pieces grow in ambition and intimacy, Yatora drifts from old friends and familiar worlds, caught between the sharp edges of artistic obsession and the quiet sanctuary they create together. Secret kisses, shared cigarettes, and whispered confessions bind them

Summary
"I've always been in love with you," Jaeyun smiles. "I was stupid not to think that you loved me too. You always have, haven't you?"
"You dick," is what Minho thinks to say first thing. "I was supposed to confess first, what the fuck? That was the whole point of being here—"
"I know. Who would I be if I didn't beat you to the punch? It's the end of the world, and I can't let you have the upper hand on me."
it's the end of the world and Minho takes Jaeyun to the beach to lie together under the stars in their last hours of life.

Summary
Jiung sighs and sets his phone down, screen face-down. “It’s not that I don’t like it,” he says after a pause. “It’s just… people might misunderstand.”
Keeho tilts his head, studying him. “Misunderstand what?”
Jiung’s gaze drops to his hands. “You know,” he says vaguely, “we’re on campus. People talk.”
Keeho lets out a quiet chuckle, though it sounds more tired than amused. “Right,” he says softly. “People talk.”
The kind of story where Keeho used to think having a boyfriend meant feeling loved and happy, not this — loneliness wearing a familiar face.

Summary
The pandemic was merciless - a super-virus that could kill in as little as eight hours from onset. Started with fever, headache, profuse sweating, and ended with a brain pushed to aneurysm or overheating. It was a brutal way to go, and it was so contagious that the government couldn't take action quickly enough.
Everyone was gone. Everyone except Jongseob. Some might have called him lucky, but he would never use that word to describe himself, wandering the world alone.
After months of scraping by to survive in a desolate, collapsing world, however, Jongseob finally discovers that he wasn't the only one cursed to live. Haku Shota can't tell him much, given that he can only speak a handful of Korean words, but if there's one thing he makes clear, it's that he's here to survive.

Summary
Quickly, he focused back on the task ahead, even through the slightly smudged dust, the traces of someone’s steps were clearly visible to Intak. How odd. His grip around his gun tightened, his knuckles turned slightly white from how hard he was clenching his fist around it.
Intak silently followed the steps, ready to aim and shoot at any shady person to cross his path, or rather ready to shoot the one person causing all this. The shelves were still stacked with food, rotten and spoiled, he couldn’t help feeling disgusted.
Unfortunately for Intak, the other person stayed quiet, not showing themselves either until he felt a gun press against the back of his head. Shit.
