Luckily, Minghao has known the whole time.

Summary
Hello! I've just moved to NYC, but I feel like a lonely fish out of water. It's hard to meet real people here, and even on social media everyone seems distant, so I decided to follow my dad's advice and ask the local paper. Do you have any non-tourist recommendations for places to eat?
I'm desperate for a human suggestion, not some Google search or unnamed article.
Thanks,
MG
Editor's Note: MG, Thank you for writing in, but this section is for personal statements and advertisements, we don't reply. I hope you find some real company soon, but for now, I'd recommend &Pizza on 28th Street if you're ever in the area. Good luck.

Summary
“Was that line about me?” Seungkwan had to ask, and Hansol and Jihoon both collapsed into laughter. Then he remembered the mockingly emotional expression Chan had used to say the line. Seungkwan almost felt like he’d been slapped. “Wait. Is this whole song supposed to be about me?”
“Boo Seungkwan diss track!” Hansol exclaimed in excitement, slamming his hand against the table. “You’ve officially made it, man!”
A "clapback" isn't as fun as Twitter makes it seem, but when indie artist Lee Chan releases a whole diss track that's seemingly about Seungkwan, what's he supposed to do, not respond? But the tweet gets too much attention, and now top idol Boo Seungkwan, responsible for his clean and cute image, has to do some damage control. His PR manager is telling him that he has to convince the public that he and Chan are best friends, so any online arguing can be written off as friendly banter, despite the fact that he's never actually met Chan before. Surprisingly—though reluctantly—Chan agrees to help.

Summary
"Relax, Seokmin. Haven't you had your make-up done by random people like a hundred times before?"
"Minghao's not random, he's my friend and he's pretty and he has pretty eyes that are also squinting at me like he's going to eat me," Seokmin squeaks, and Minghao stares in disbelief while Mingyu bursts out laughing.
"Holy shit, that's just how he looks like when he's concentrating!"
"So you agree?" Minghao asks Mingyu, horrified, but Mingyu shakes his head.
"No. When you do my eyeliner it's like you're looking at me like I'm a painting that you've been spending the last ten years making and you've never focused on anything else so much in your life."
Seokmin says in awe, "Oh wait, I kind of see that."
These people can't be real.
In his first year of university in a foreign country, Minghao finds comfort among the chaos in two things - up and coming model Kim Mingyu and a one-night-stand with the loveliest person he's ever met. Fast forward three years right before his graduation, both those people come into his life and Minghao's world gets more hectic than ever.
