    Summary

    Here’s the thing: Gunwook spent the last three years and an extra month on top of that trying to forget Taerae. He knew it was a futile exercise, but still he tried. He’d dated each girl that had asked him out, flicked through dating apps before he came here just to look for new faces to fantasise about, even tried physically going outside for a jog every time he thought of those dimples, those eyes, that smile. All useless. Now he was in front of Taerae again, Gunwook’s whole body lit up.

    Gunwook has a long-standing, debilitating crush on his secondary school tutor Taerae, whom he hasn't seen in years. If he were honest, he would do absolutely anything for a chance to show Taerae he's become a man. Lucky, then, that they happen to meet again. Less fortunate, though, that Gunwook trips headfirst into a lie.

    Summary

    Gunwook had always been good at hiding things. His strength. His tiredness. His fear. And especially, his heart. Being an idol taught you that—how to wear charm like armor, how to smile even when your lungs felt like collapsing.
    But nothing prepared him for his bandmates, Kim Taerae.

    Summary

    For Gunwook, a perfectionist student, being constantly overwhelmed and keeping his world under control was enough stress. His only source of joy and relief came in the form of his best friend, Gyuvin. But even that is not enough when Gunwook's fear and confusion intensifies as he notices that his feelings for his best friend are not completely platonic.
    “In that air that had become cold, he warmed and melted his heart with his warm breath”

    Summary

    Abstract

    Gunwook, a talented science prodigy, is forced to take on a roommate at the bequest of his doting professor. Ricky Shen is his complete opposite in every possible way, a brooding rulebreaker dressed in all black, who seems to reject every attempt from Gunwook to get closer.

    When Ricky's art piece is mysteriously destroyed, Gunwook finds him in pieces, inconsolable and distraught. He vows to find the culprit no matter what it takes and alongside his investigation, solve the mystery that is Ricky.
