Summary
The solution comes to him suddenly, a belated epiphany after one night of particularly late practice, staring up at the ceiling for so long in the dark that he starts to see shapes in it. It hits him hard, a clean break down the middle, a rupture that shines clarity on all the things he's spent the majority of this time contemplating. This unruly part of him that insists on being right, that denies the truth, that twists itself up into knots trying to adhere to everything he thinks Yeonjun would do– it has to go.
No one ever hears about the act that starts it all. The pull, the snip, the removal of an undesired scrap. There is only the uncertainty of before, and then the aftermath. And that, too, is slow to catch up with them.

Summary
It starts when they’re in the middle of filming for another To Do episode, reviewing the footage, and one of the staff comments on Soobin’s lack of interaction. Soobin waves it off, because he's always been quiet, it's nothing new.
That is, until Kai chimes in with a smirk, quipping cheekily, “Yeah, our Soobinie-hyung isn’t the most talkative. Sometimes I forget he’s even there at all!”
And Soobin's chest suddenly aches.
(Things Soobin is, things he isn't.)Or,
Choi Soobin is a lot of things, but he suddenly starts to realize that maybe a good leader isn't one of them.

Summary
There is a name on his wrist, stark against his skin.
The black characters are clear and unmistakable: Choi Yeonjun.
Soobin swears.
All idols wear soulbands around their wrists to hide their soulmate’s name: as idols there’s an expectation to be single and appear forever-attainable so that their fans can wonder what name is written on their wrist and believe that there’s a chance it could be their own.
Soobin gave up on a future with a soulmate when he became an idol. He never expected to get a soulmark — and then he did.
