    Summary

    “Jaehyun’s coming back.”

    “Back? You mean like—for a visit?”

    “No. Like, back back,” Doyoung said, voice tight. “He’s moving home. For good. He emailed me last night. And he wants to call you.”

    Jungwoo blinked. “Me?”

    Doyoung’s eyes met his, and suddenly Jungwoo understood. This wasn’t just a casual update. There was something unspoken behind Doyoung’s eyes. Something that looked like fear. Or regret.

    “I never told him,” Doyoung admitted quietly. “That it was me replying. He still thinks it’s you.”

    Or

    Jaehyun and Jungwoo were best friends until Jaehyun had to move to California. They promised to keep in touch through email. For thirteen years, Jaehyun believed the emails from Jungwoo were the thread keeping their friendship alive across an ocean. What he doesn’t know: Jungwoo stopped writing long ago. And the person behind those words—their shared memories, quiet jokes, and confessions—was someone else entirely. Now Jaehyun is back in Korea, and the truth is a ticking clock.
