Summary
"It’s distant until it’s not anymore, and all Hanbin can hear is the vibrating, melodic tune that is Zhang Hao’s voice.
Many notes have come alive in the past days, too many perhaps. None of them made sense while played by unknowing hands, Hanbin’s own fingers lowering levels and adding layers, babbling between oblivious lips blessed by ignorance.
How could they know?
About the thick bedding of affection where notes were laid on top of—the same notes that will only ever hold significance when Hao is the one who brings them to life."Or
Music producer Sung Hanbin, who is known for not working with idols, is forced to write and produce an album with famous idol Zhang Hao. Seoul is the perfect frame for their love to blossom in warm music studios, late-night sessions and whispered confessions.

Summary
Hao and Jiwoong fake date for real, the object of Jiwoong’s affections may or may not already be dating his childhood friend, and said childhood friend is kind of Hao’s type.
“Zhang Hao, third-year majoring in music,” Hao felt obligated to report, extending a hand as he glanced up at Love Rival, eyes flitting over the tattoo that peeked over the neckline of his shirt. He seemed to already wear a natural blush that was obvious even behind his mask, the apples of his cheeks and ears tinted pink. His hand was warm and seemed to fit just right into his; Hao was almost disappointed when he let go so quickly.
“Sung Hanbin, second-year.” He introduced himself with an emphasis on ‘Bin’, causing Hao to feel an odd sense of deja vu. He thought he heard a bit of a stutter, but then Hanbin continued smoothly, “I’m in the music department too, but my concentration is in dance.” He paused before dipping his head in greeting. “Hao-sunbaenim.”

Summary
Gyuvin is vaguely aware that Taerae has started talking about what they’ll be doing today, but the words are background noise to him, his brain just telling him not to look away from the boy lest he might disappear.
Pretty, he thinks.
Wait.
What?
No matter how hard his friends tried to sell it, Gyuvin couldn't quite seem to see how they were all so obsessed with hook-ups and relationships. He has enough going on in his life right now for him to waste his efforts on something he isn't interested in.
That's until Ricky Shen struts into his life and has him questioning everything he believed about himself.

Summary
“Sorry,” he finds himself saying, “I’m not really attracted to animals.”
The frog looks put off by this.
“If I had to choose a frog, it’d be you,” Hao says sympathetically. “Which I guess you must know, since I did have to choose a frog, and it’s you. Actually, uh, do you know if this counts as animal abuse? It’s just I’ve never gotten to have a pet of my own, and I was kind of hoping I’d never end up on a registry ‘cause I’d like a dog, someday.” He thinks for a moment. “…Are there registries for that kind of thing? There are, right? There should be.”
Blink, blink.
“Anyway, I should get this on with, right? The sooner it happens the sooner it’s over.”
So, on the floor of the science building—thanks to the most incredible and cutthroat game of truth or dare Hao has ever, ever played—he purses his lips to kiss a frog.
Zhang Hao's night starts with kissing a frog, and ends with a pretty boy in his bed.
