    Summary

    Jinu, once a human singer who made a desperate pact for fame, now drifts through Hell bearing the heavy price of his soul—an ever-spreading curse etched into his flesh. Haunted by the memory of the family he abandoned and the lies he lives, he struggles to survive in a ruthless underworld where strength is all that matters.

    Ironically, he finds love in the least expected places possible.

    Caught between ruthless demons, his own internal conflics, he needs to find a way to get free from Gwi ma's control.

    Summary

    Rumi looks down. “Your soul,” she whispers mournfully, enraptured by the blue light trickling out of his chest. “It’s beautiful.”

    Jinu smiles.

    Gently, he presses his forehead against hers. Rumi jolts, eyes widening, but to his relief, she doesn’t pull away.

    “My soul,” he echoes softly. “It’s yours, now.”

    Rumi opens her mouth, but no words escape her as she gapes at him. A tear cascades down her cheek.

    “It’s mine to give, and yours to take, if you’ll have me.” His vision is blurring, and so he lets his eyes fall shut, allowing the darkness to encompass him. He forces himself to believe that the lull of sleep is accepted of his own volition.

    His cheeks tingle. Rumi is holding onto his face. “No, no, no—” she grits out. Her voice is growing distant. “Stop. You can’t do this to me.” The words rush out of her in a frenzy, full of haste and distress. “Jinu.”

    “Rumi,” he responds in a broken murmur. “Thank you.”

    She was right. Gwi-Ma could be defeated.

    He should have listened to her.

    (Or: A fix-it/time-travel au where Jinu goes back to the very beginning of the story and sets things right.)

    Summary

    From HUNTR/X's perspective, the demons they fight are trying out some kind of new scheme: a rival, demonic boy band that preys upon their fans, and it's working. And on top of that? Their manager, some poor middle aged man with sad eyes and a perpetually exhausted demeanor, clearly has no idea of who and what they truly are.

    From the Saja Boys' perspective, they've finally escaped Gwi-Ma's tyranny with the help of the demon world's most notorious and powerful traitor, and are now trying to live it up in the human world as idols with said traitor managing them. With the hunters convinced they're up to no good, it's easier said than done.

    From Tae Oh's perspective, he's back in the human world for the first time in over twenty years, helping five young sajas who spent their whole spiritual existence under Gwi-Ma's thumb stand on their own in every way possible while stuck watching from the sidelines as his daughter burns like her mother did.

    (OR: AU where Rumi's demonic father is the Saja Boys' manager. Hijinks and drama ensue.)

    Summary

    [You have 365 days to debut… or die]

    That’s what the screen said.

    Not wake up and try again, not find your path, not even live.
    Just debut…or disappear.

    Jinu never asked for a second chance.
    He wasn’t looking to rewrite the past.
    Not after what he did.
    Not after who he became.

    And yet, here he was… alive, somehow, in a body too young to carry his sins, in a world that moved three years behind his last memory.
    A world where she might still exist.
    A world where he was just a stranger again.

    The rules are simple.
    Debut. Rise. Win.
    Or vanish forever.

    This time, without powers.
    Without allies.
    Without her.

    But he still has one thing.
    The need to see her again
