    Summary

    Twenty-eight-year-old CEO Park Jimin has lived the past three years without letting in anybody new. The only people he trusts are his two best friends, Namjoon and Seokjin. On a night they convince him of joining them at a nightclub, he meets Jeongguk, a college student who's celebrating his twenty second birthday. Least to say, Jimin falls prey to Jeongguk's beautiful self and after sharing a very intense kiss, it's just impossible to let go.

    Summary

    The term picture bride refers to the practice in the early 20th century of immigrant workers (chiefly Japanese, Okinawan, and Korean) in Hawaii and the West Coast of the United States and Canada selecting brides from their native countries via a matchmaker, who paired bride and groom using only photographs and family recommendations of the possible candidates.

    In the fall of 1914, Jimin heads to America to meet his new husband for the first time, excited for every opportunity that was about to come to him. However, nothing seems to be as he imagined. His husband looks nothing like his picture, he can't go to town without receiving dirty looks from people on the street, and the owner of a local Korean shop is far too kind and charming for Jimin's married self to handle.

    Summary

    Jungkook is smart for his age. He knows this. His Daddy said so. He can see things beyond the mask and hear the truth under lies. It scares his Appa how smart he is that Jungkook decides to stay quiet with his observations.

    “Heeyeon nana,” he whispers over his nanny’s story. They were reading The Great Gilly Hopkins that Jungkook got from his Uncle Namjoon.

    Heeyeon smiles at him, tucking the boy in her arms. “Yes, Kookie?”

    “Do Daddy and Appa love each other?” he innocently asks.

    Heeyeon still has the smile but Jungkook could see the confusion swimming in her eyes. “Why yes, of course.”

    That is a lie. Like the marriage photos of his parents in the living room or the family picture they took during Jungkook’s first birthday.

    Everything is a lie and for the first time, Jungkook realizes that he is not the only one staying quiet with their observations.

     

    Or in which Jungkook discovers that his parents were in an arranged marriage.

    Summary

    “I’m the future king and I’m gay. I can’t afford dating or romance,” Seokjin says, calm and far more collected than the situation should call for. “I can afford convenience, though, and someone for whom a purely physical arrangement is mutually beneficial. What I have with Yoongi is good. Convenient.”
    “Can’t you just say ‘fuck buddy’ like the rest of us?” Taehyung groans, somehow both frustrated and still deeply amused. At Seokjin’s pointed glare, he grins, wide and saccharine, and adds, “Your Royal Highness,” with a derisive bow.

    or Prince Seokjin lives in a world of lies and gold; things start to change when on a stormy night he meets Min Yoongi, who makes him reevaluate the truth's worth.
