Summary
➛ Saved from his abusive owners, underground Boxer Minho learns that life under one of District 9's seedy kingpins, Han Jisung, is better... but perhaps even more complicated than he can bare.
"There were two parts to Minho’s life; before Han Jisung and after.
Before Han Jisung was bad, mostly. Really bad. If he thought about what it used to be like he got sick to his stomach and his head started to hurt. He tried not to think about it.
Life after Han Jisung was better. Good. He was happy, even. Sometimes he was so happy, he could hardly believe it was real.
If he was being really honest, Minho felt like he was waiting for it all to break open and come apart, like busted knuckles after too many punches. Like his resolve on the receiving end of Han Jisung’s confident smile. Like soft, vulnerable flesh at the sharp point of a knife."

Summary
The conclusion Minho has come to after nights spent thinking of wavy brown hair when he spaces out during Jeongin’s kids shows, days spent with his eyes skimming the beach for a glimpse of honey skin, is that humans have an interest in the unknown.
Jisung is a new character in his day to day, the first in ages, ever since Hyeju got hired as a lifeguard. Jisung is pretty and he’s from the mainland but he seems to be setting up a life here, and Minho knows nothing about him besides his name. His brain has inexplicably latched onto a weaved story, a routine thing he and Hyunjin do, because humanity craves to learn more about the unknown.
The Jisung in his head is separate from the Jisung on the beach, though they look the same. A temporary annoyance, a psychological torment.
(OR: Minho, left to care for his younger brother after his parents death, works to make ends meet and doesn't have time for distractions. Jisung, a free-spirited and very distracting surfer, moves to town and turns Minho's world on it's head.)

Summary
“Hi,” he says, almost too quiet for Chan to hear him.
Chan replies easily, “Hi..!”
Chan is smiling. Minho can hear it in the way that he talks. He thinks about the dimple he had in his cheek last time and wonders if he’s smiling so broadly that it’s there now.
“What are you up to, Minho?”
Minho stares up at his bedroom ceiling and wonders the same thing.
“Staring,” he says dumbly. “At the ceiling.”
“You’re staring at the ceiling?”
“Yeah.”
“Mm. Is it a good ceiling?” Chan laughs.
Minho doesn’t like simply hearing the sound. A wonderful smile pairs with that wonderful laugh, he knows, and though it had weirded him out back then, how easily Chan could do it, seemingly without reason, he liked being in receipt of it. He wants to see it again, now, in person, as Minho talks to him. He wants to feel like someone is pleased with him, simply for existing.
“No. I don’t like it,” Minho replies.
Chan hums thoughtfully, and says, “Well, I’m looking at the stars.”
“The stars?”
“Yeah. Have you seen them tonight? There’s lots up there.”
or the one where Minho calls Chan, a previous one night stand, and spends the night with him again.

Summary
From closer, it’s clear that Minho is about his age. He’s handsome— very much so— in an untouchable sort of way. Straight nose, sharp eyes, a defined cupid’s bow. He looks sculpted rather than born. Jisung might shrink under the weight of his presence if the situation were different.
Knowing that Minho is dying ruins the illusion of perfection.
Jisung answers an ad online reading: "I'm going to die, but there's a lot of things I haven't done yet that I don't want to do alone."
