Summary
"Holy shit, Jaehee, look. He's for sure your type," Sion says, wrapping an arm around Jaehee's shoulder and pointing towards the bar counter.
"I swear, you don't actually know my type at all," Jaehee murmurs before trying to find who Sion is pointing at. It takes a moment, but Jaehee can feel his mouth snap shut when he sees the man sitting alone at the bar, chin resting in his hand, one leg crossed over the other. His skin is tan, the light of the bar fluttering over it in such a pretty way (how is that possible?). He's wearing a dark tank-top that fits so tightly around his body, showing off his figure. His hair is slightly long, curling beneath his ears. Jaehee's mouth feels dry when he sees the man's face, how pretty his lips look from this far away. The man's eyes appear to be scanning the place, so analytical, so beautiful. Jaehee thinks his knees are trembling right now. "Sion, real or fake?"
Or: the world is overcome by AI and debilitating consumerism. It's easy for Jaehee to find people to share one-night stands with, but it's hard for him to remember the last time he's been in love. It all changes so fast when he decides to go to the Golden Street bar with Sion.

Summary
Sion has always been little more than a pawn in his parents' sprawling empire, a disappointment in their quest for the perfect heir. Desperate to mold him into their vision of success, they send him to Seishin, an elite boarding school nestled in the mountains of Nagano, known for shaping the next generation of world leaders.
To Sion, however, Seishin represents everything he despises—unearned privilege, hollow traditions, and the suffocating weight of expectations.
Then he meets Maeda Riku, the charismatic son of Japan's most powerful right-wing politicians and the school's untouchable golden boy. At Seishin, his life is turned upside down—but not by the institution. It's Riku who changes everything.
