    Summary

    If someone had asked Jiseok back in February where he thought he’d be by July, he probably wouldn’t have had a clear answer. He definitely would never have expected to be taking up space in his cousin’s one-room Seoul apartment, spending his days wondering if he’d ever skate again and his nights asking himself if he even wanted to.

    Finding himself without a coach just months before the Olympics, four-time Korean national champion Kwak Jiseok can't help but wonder if his career is already over. But after a chance encounter with his childhood rival, he finds himself with renewed determination to show the world that he can't be broken so easily.

    After struggling with growth spurts for several seasons, Lee Jooyeon is skating better than ever. The idea of standing beside Jiseok on a podium again, like when they were kids, is what's kept him going all this time. So of course Jooyeon would do anything to help Jiseok get back on his skates.

    But only one of them can win gold at Nationals and earn a spot at the Olympics.

    Summary

    “Jooyeon.”

    Still holding the music box, Jooyeon turned. Jiseok was half-hidden in the dusty shadows by the bookshelves, phone fallen to the floor, light-side-up. He was hunched over, fingertips pressed into his head. Jooyeon could hear his ragged breath, but his voice, when he spoke, was steady.

    “You need to get out.”

    It’s a stroke of fortune when Jooyeon, fresh from Daegu, makes friends with Jiseok on the first day of semester, but it seems like nothing short of fate that Jiseok should be in the band club—the very club that Jooyeon most wants to join.

    But the band club doesn’t accept new members, and Jooyeon gets far more than he bargained for when he finds out why.

    Summary

    It didn’t begin at the fansign—but in a way, it did.

    The eyes were blank, wide, dark and luminous at the same time, and painfully familiar like a song half-remembered. But that wasn’t possible, because they were decidedly not human, which in itself shouldn’t have been possible—and yet there they were, staring right at him.

    Ever since Jiseok was young, he’d had adults telling him he was an "old soul". It's only when he receives a strange gift from a fan and his life is turned inside-out that he's forced to confront what that really means.

    Summary

    If not for the faint blue glow in its pupils, one could have easily mistaken the android for a human. It was around average height, svelte but broad-shouldered, with dark, silky, slightly wavy hair just long enough to glance off the collarbones, a sharp jawline, well-defined lips, a subtly aquiline nose, and eyes that held a puppylike innocence.

    At nineteen, Kwak Jiseok designs the programming architecture that brings androids into the world. At twenty-four, he's told he only has about five years left to live. As his health declines, he moves out into the countryside to wait for his illness to claim him, with his cat Snoopy for company and android model P5-0912, "Jooyeon", as a live-in nurse and housekeeper.

    But then something about Jooyeon begins to change, and Jiseok can no sooner understand it than his own inexplicable feelings.

    "the view from here is even prettier when the sun sets." jiseok said softly.

    jungsu turned around and smiled.
