    Summary

    In a world where alphas and omegas are a rarity, and betas have a notoriously low fertility, Cho Hyunju, alpha, commits the unthinkable crime. She transitions fully, rendering herself sterile. It costs her everything. Her family, her friends, her job. Her dream of ever becoming a parent. But she endures. Moves on. Finds a place for herself amongst the cheerful misfits. Tells herself it’s all she needs.

    And then Junhee, her roommate, her best friend, a beta beating the odds, gets pregnant.

    Newly moved in next door, Gyeongseok’s past makes him harbour a deep mistrust for alphas. He tries to keep his daughter Nayeon, always too curious, too trusting, at a safe distance. Fails utterly himself, once he realizes there’s a baby on the way. That the woman next door is not anything at all like his past. Could maybe even be his future, if he dares to let her in.

    Summary

    After the death of Seong Gi-hun, Hwang In-ho sinks into grief, guilt, and crushing loneliness. One night, he falls asleep in his empty apartment—only to wake up in a completely different world, where he is still a detective but now assigned to a high-profile case involving the corrupt chairman of Eunsong Corp, Lee Dae-ho.

    Things take a bizarre turn when In-ho meets Lim Hyun-joon, a charming, wildly popular actor who looks exactly like Gi-hun. Unlike the man he lost, Hyun-joon is lively, confident, and endlessly curious—especially when he’s cast in a new drama, Double Investigation, where he must learn how to act again like a real detective. Forced to shadow In-ho for “research,” Hyun-joon’s clumsy enthusiasm and unexpected warmth slowly disrupt In-ho’s quiet, grief-filled life.

    As the investigation deepens and emotions blur between past and present, fiction and reality, In-ho finds himself torn between duty and healing, suspicion and affection. In this strange new world, solving the case may be the least complicated part—because learning how to laugh, trust, and love again might be the real mystery.

    Summary

    After watching Sang-woo find his own happiness with Gi-hun, Dae-ho starts to believe there might be love left for him too. He’s been hurt too many times to risk it easily but hope has a way of sneaking in.

    Then he meets In-ho’s younger brother, Jun-ho, at a dinner party. Jun-ho hadn’t planned on falling-hadn’t meant to become completely taken with the man who smiled like sunlight-but once he does, there’s no going back.

    Jun-ho’s never wanted anyone the way he wants Dae-ho-and this time, it feels like forever.

    A companion story starting with Chapter 43 of The Day Ga-yeong Got a Best Friend (and I Did Too).
