Summary
When Seonghwa’s tour boat capsizes, sending all of its occupants into the churning waves, he and seven others manage to make it to a small island on the horizon, overgrown with vegetation and clearly bearing no other signs of human life. With high tensions, they are forced to work together to survive, and he easily gets along with all but one of his fellow castaways.
Hongjoong is closed off and hot-headed, and eventually Seonghwa gives up on the possibility of civility between the two of them. Still, as the nights come and go and time seems to stretch into one continual loop, he realizes there is more to Hongjoong than he’d initially thought.
The island becomes their new normal, and Seonghwa becomes so accustomed to life there that he can hardly remember what it was like before the world had forgotten about them. Never did they anticipate a rescue, nor the world’s obsession with the eight boys who came back from the dead.

Summary
The roads were empty, so Hongjoong decided to ride on them instead of on the footpath since there were no cars.
His boss had kept him in to work late that night, but he didn't mind if it meant that he got more money for working later than usual.
Up ahead, Hongjoong noticed a car with the headlights on, parked near the curb. He's seen that car before... a few times now actually.
He let out a shocked scream when he was suddenly grabbed from off of his bike and it toppled over. He struggled against them as a blindfold was tied around his head.
"I don't want to hurt you, so please comply or I will."
———
Hongjoong wanted to get away—get away from his lazy-ass roommate, his annoying co-workers, and find a new job, rent a new place on his own; sadly, he wouldn't be able to afford everything if he were to live on his own, so he's stuck in this generic story that he calls his life, which didn't seem like it would get any more interesting.
But one late evening changes everything.
He never thought he would end up being kidnapped, but sometimes the strangest and most unexpected things can happen to someone...

Summary
Hongjoong whistled low. “A tall order, sire.” He cocked his head to the side with a snarky smile on his lips. “And it comes at a steep price.”
Seonghwa’s father gripped the armrests of his throne. “Name it.”
Hongjoong paused to rake his eyes over Seonghwa. “You will give me your son in marriage.”
...
Pirate Captain Hongjoong is more powerful than the King. He knows it. The King knows it. Everyone knows it. So when the King begs him for an alliance, Hongjoong can name his price. No one expects him to demand the crown Prince’s hand in marriage, least of all Prince Seonghwa. But can Seonghwa survive on the savage seas? And will this loveless marriage harden his heart like the pirate he’s been tied to?

Summary
"Hi," he announced, voice lilting and melodious, "I'm Choi San."
Wooyoung didn't know what to say, so he just opted to shake the boy's hand a little hesitantly, "Can I help you?" Wooyoung questioned, looking at this...Choi San, perplexed as he slid into the empty seat opposite him, comfortable like they'd known each other for years.
"Well...no, but I thought you looked lonely, so I came to ask if you wanted some company."
Huh.
Strange.
Or, the one in which Wooyoung is a secret agent for the government and San is the naive college boy who knows too much about pain.

Summary
Seonghwa thought that Hongjoong hated him. And well, he might as well hate him back. Except, he didn't hate Hongjoong. He could never hate Hongjoong. And maybe, just maybe, Hongjoong didn't hate him either.

Summary
“I am sure that one day you will find the center of the universe, wherever it is. If anyone could, I do believe it would be you.”
“I hope that you will be there when I do. I hope that you will be by my side for a long while.”
---
Hongjoong is a crowned Prince, in line for the throne, and Seonghwa is a Doctor who lives vicariously through his cats garden adventures more than his own life. Hongjoong’s dream goal of life is to find the center of the universe, though Seonghwa thinks the stars have whispered to him where it lies.- Language:

Summary
The warning was there, they had time to make it out. When the power went out without a moment’s notice followed by the water disappearing shortly after, Seonghwa knew that his screaming instincts weren’t to be ignored like his roommate told him. The portable radio they used only screamed static except for the occasional alarming words that no one believed because it was April 1st and it was all supposedly a big prank.
That’s all it was, right? Some big prank? That’s what Seonghwa’s roommate told him at least, but look where his roommate was now.
Or: Seonghwa attempts to survive during a zombie apocalypse and ends up meeting six loyal men and one incredibly cold-hearted leader to keep him company as they try to make it out alive.

Summary
Park Seonghwa had been a prisoner at sea for the past two years ever since he was snatched off the streets. When a battle with a rival pirate crew leads to his capture, he is merely moved from one prison to another. He doesn't realize it at first, but this new prison is different. Against everything he knows, he slowly finds himself warming up to the crew members he had sworn to hate.
Park Seonghwa promised himself he would never feel again. Emotions only got people killed.
Captain Kim Hongjoong had never felt an ounce of remorse for anyone outside of his crew. If they weren't with him, they were against him. But when they bring a prisoner on board for information, Hongjoong watches as his crew members warm up to him despite their orders not to engage. As their attachment grows, Hongjoong's hate for the prisoner swells.
Kim Hongjoong promised himself he would protect his crew. Emotions only got people killed.

Summary
Working at Disney World seems magical on the surface. Working there with people like this is not something any of them had in mind. In other words, the Happiest Place on Earth isn’t what they expected.

Summary
Seonghwa had been going through life on pin and needles. Maybe some college experiences and a beautiful blue-haired man can make his life just a tad bit better.

Summary
“This is Wooyoung, he’s my best friend.” San turns to Wooyoung, leaning in far closer than he would while sober and grabbing Wooyoung by the shoulders. They’re basically the same height so it’s oddly jarring to suddenly be so close, noses almost touching. “You know that, right?” San says seriously.
“Uh, yeah,” Wooyoung says. His tongue feels heavy, the words not quite slurred but not quite clear. The world has gone fuzzy around the edges, San’s face is the only thing in focus.
“My best friend. I love you so much, dude. Seriously. I love you, man. I love you.”
