Summary
A world where you’re born with five luminous hearts on the inside of your wrist. When you get your heart broken in any way, one of the hearts loses their colour and fades. Once all five have dimmed, it’s said that you can never fall in love again.
Enter Choi Beomgyu; a music major with only one heart left, barely hanging on a thin thread. He pledged to himself that he wouldn’t find love again to save him from the curse.
That changes the day Kang Taehyun joins the picture with five complete hearts, taunting Beomgyu. Out of spite, Beomgyu bets with his friend that he can break at least one of Taehyun’s hearts. What’s one heart less?
What he didn’t expect was to possibly fall in love in the process, leading to his demise.

“Two very good friends of mine got married on the same night.”
The corner of Zhang Hao’s smile lifts. “And you went to both?”
I planned both, Hanbin doesn’t say.

The last time Taesan sees Jaehyun, he leaves him with red swollen eyes and tears streaming down his cheeks.

(Or: Taesan breaks up with Jaehyun before summer and deals with the complicated emotions he's left with, burnout, and his shattering family.)

Summary
Leehan has his life mapped out: get his degree, make music with his best friend Taesan, and maybe finally get a girlfriend. His new plan? The cute girl who just moved into the apartment next door. Minju is funny, sweet, and Leehan is completely smitten.
Minju thinks her new neighbor Leehan is nice—if a little too friendly—but it's his roommate she can't get out of her head. Taesan is quiet, intense, and looks at the world like it's a puzzle he’s still solving. She’s determined to be the piece that fits.
Taesan wishes Minju had never moved in. He's watched his childhood best friend, Leehan, fall for person after person, but this time feels different. This time, Leehan is falling for the girl next door, and Taesan is forced to watch it all unfold from the shared wall of their living room. It's an excruciating kind of torture, especially when Leehan's casual, flirty touches—the ones that mean nothing to Leehan—feel like everything to Taesan.
Three people, one small apartment building, and a whole lot of unspoken feelings. Someone is bound to get hurt.Bookmarked by riversandskies

Summary
“Why did you kiss him?” Hanbin's tone was insistent.
Hao couldn’t ignore the answer anymore.
Because he looked like you, and you’ll never want me in that way.
“Because I was drunk.”
Hanbin stared into Hao’s eyes for what felt like an eternity. The quietness of the next few beats presaged the calm before the storm.
“You’ve never kissed me while drunk,” Hanbin muttered. His voice was low, yet latched with so much anguish it Hao wondered whether he was hallucinating the whole thing. “So why him?”

Summary
“Right person, wrong time – would that be the right way to describe what we had back in our college days?”
When Hanbin moves in to a shared apartment with Hao, neither of them knew how there would come a day when they wouldn’t be able to fall asleep without having the other by their side.
In between cooking meals for each other, sticking sticky notes to bedroom doors, smiling over text messages, having long conversations, sharing secrets and sharing achievements – two hearts growing closer, it happened so naturally, so inevitably. But it wasn’t enough, because wounds of the past may disappear from sight, but can never be forgotten.

Summary
“Have you ever heard about the origami hearts tradition in the hospital?”
Taking the heart, the child excitedly inspected it, nodding in glee. “Yes! My mama told me that when someone leaves the hospital to go to heaven, we all fold a paper heart for them! Like this, like this!”
“That’s right,” chuckled Soobin. “But do you know how it started? It started here, in this room. From a boy who used to fold a paper heart every day for his lost love, hoping each one he makes will take him closer to the day those eyes would open again.”
"Unfortunately for him, the day never came."
In other words, a hopeless love story of two childhood best friends who didn't realise what it meant to have each other until it was too late; compiled of yearning, loss, forlorn hope, unrequited love, and every tragedy in between.
