    Summary

    Spending long hours working at the Supreme Court isn't anything new for Judge Oh, and neither is going out for an emergency food run when she realizes she's missed dinner.

    It is, however, the first time she sees someone about to be assaulted. She can't just sit back and watch.

    Summary

    Believe it or not, Gaon is not an idiot.

    He is naive, perhaps, in that he does not know the fine arts of stringing someone else along on puppet strings, but he is not so oblivious that he can’t feel them being pulled as he moves. Some people assume he is naive because he lets these things happen to him. He prefers to give people the benefit of the doubt, because he knows he won’t be treated as kindly without it.

    People have agendas. Agendas change. That includes him.

    Everyone wants something, and sometimes you need to to work together to get what you both want. That doesn’t make him oblivious.

    Selfish, perhaps.

    Gaon has never been good at recognizing when to stop. He pushes with questions, with actions, with words until something happens. His professor beat his motorcycle to pieces, Soohyun slapped him across the face, his parents—

    Well. You get the idea.

    But Gaon knows that what he wants is reckless. He’s an adrenaline junkie, perhaps he always has been. Sure, it’s certainly gotten more self-destructive over the years, but he remembers getting scolded for being so careless with his one life.

    They never got it quite right, though.

    Summary

    Mali was only three when the world turned quiet.
    Her mother was gone, her father a name she never knew, and her new home filled with spaces too neat, too still. But then came Uncle Rain, gentle, patient, soft as sunlight through curtains, and Uncle Phayu, her mother’s brother, all storms and silence, trying to learn what love sounds like again.

    What begins as fragile routine slowly becomes something whole.
    Through tiny acts, a hand at the school gate, rice shaped like hearts, bedtime stories about stars, butterfly clips, and laughter that fills empty rooms, Mali teaches both men how to stay.

    Rain becomes her warmth; Phayu, her anchor. Together they stumble, rebuild, and learn that family isn’t born, it’s made, moment by moment, hug by hug.
    And as seasons pass, the home they create grows brighter, fuller, alive with a love that refuses to leave.

    By the time Mali finds her voice again, the story has already become bigger than her, it’s about healing, about hope, and about how even after storms, skies remember how to be blue.

    Because sometimes, the smallest heart in the room holds everyone together. ☀️

    Summary

    Once the last of the Hyeongshin High School students collapsed in a heap, the boy turned and looked at him with a grin.

     

    “I'm Ahn Suho.”

     

    The boy– Suho– stepped closer to Sieun with his smile still present and a hand outstretched. Sieun dimly noticed that this was the only time the other removed a hand from inside his pocket after the fight.

    Or, Sieun and Suho first meet each other in Eunjang instead.
