And Then the Curtains were Gold

Summary:

Despite his beliefs, at his core Choi would rather want an imperfect world than a lifeless one. Meanwhile, Kim Soleum has only ever wanted to go home. These should not be conflicting principals, and yet they are. Someone's kindness might just be more invasive than the deadliest disaster.

On a sunny day in May, a new city quietly grows out into the world to shine new hope into a dark world - a sunrise born from a single wish. In a perfect world, do it's people really need sunsets?

with decrees to build skyscrapers.

All evil smothered,
By [Ireum]-nim.

Please be careful.
