    ★★☆☆☆ (2.0)

    Hanuel Bookstore & Café is a little shop owned by Kim Seungmin. Although it was set in the most busiest streets in Seoul, the shop barely gets any attention. Therefore, Seungmin spends most of his time alone, procrastinating on his chair.

    On some random day, he finally got a customer! But at what cost? This customer was often rude towards Seungmin even though he didn't do anything wrong. Seungmin thought that he'd lose his sanity if the rude customer comes again and become a regular, turns out he'd end up falling into a spiral of- love?

    Summary

    “Nonsense!” Chan refutes, spreading his hands wide in welcome. “There’s always someone. Luckily I persuaded my own friend to tag along at the last minute too, in case of a case like this. He’s right over -- oh, there he is. Minho!” he yells, and Seungmin freezes.

    It can’t be. There are so many Minhos in the world, and in this university, there must be. It’s gotta be a different Minh--

    “Lemon man!” a cheerful voice calls, and suddenly all traces of fatigue leave Seungmin’s body like a charged spirit ascending into the sky, replacing every single bodily cell with stiff resignation.

    No no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no--

    “Wagwan, bestie. Is this my assigned partner?” Minho beams, throwing an arm around Seungmin’s shoulder and squeezing. “We’re going to have so much fun together!”

    --> "Hostile acquaintances" Seungmin and Minho are paired together in a buddy system when Seungmin starts university. With no way to escape Minho, will Seungmin manage to stumble his way through first year?

    Summary

    All Minho wished for was an end to the shouting. He never imagined his desperate plea would be answered by a shimmer of golden light and a boy with wings curled up on his bed.

    Summary

    It’s funny—because if you’d asked Minho back in May what he thought of Seungmin,
    he’d have said Seungmin was cold. Smug. Untouchable.
    He might’ve even laughed and said he’d have Seungmin begging under him by July.

    But now?

    The sun’s long gone. The sand’s cold beneath his knees.
    And it’s Minho who’s wrecked.

    Minho who's grasping both of Seungmin's hands, whispering: "Please. Just say something. Scream. Tell me I’m scum. Just—don’t leave."

    Summary

    “Do you remember two weeks ago when I bought you coffee twice in a row instead of alternating like usual and you said you owed me?” Seungmin asks without any sort of preface. Minho blinks at him uncomprehendingly. “I’m here to cash in the favour now.”
    “You interrupted my rest time at ass o’clock in the middle of the week to come ask for a coffee I owe you?”
    Seungmin shakes his head. “No. I need you to pretend to date me.”
    Minho blinks at him again, then shuts the door in his face.

    After confessing and getting rejected by his best friend, Seungmin comes up with an elaborate plan to save face that involves fake dating Minho in order to prove that he's moving on. There's no chance of feelings from either side, since they're both already caught up in their unrequited ones - right?
