Summary
Once upon a time, Donghyuck considered his brother his entire world. Once upon a time, he considered Johnny to be his everything, an unspoken promise, to always be there for each other. But fate is cruel, and it takes away the only good thing he's had, and replaces it with something he no longer recognises.
Johnny and Donghyuck meet, eleven years later; barely brothers, completely strangers.

Summary
Moles, on his face. In the same places that Mark has never been able to forget.
“Donghyuck?” Mark questions, disbelief making his voice shake.
The eyes narrow further. The frown pulls deeper. There is no spark of recognition in his eyes — no sign of the boy who sacrificed it all to help them escape two years and eleven months ago.
When they escape the agency, Donghyuck does not make it out with them.
Three years later, it gets complicated.

Summary
“Mark,” he tried again, softer now. “What the hell are you doing to yourself?”
The silence dragged on, heavy enough to crush the air between them. Haechan waited, he gave him that chance and when nothing came, no excuse, no explanation, not even a lie, his patience snapped.
“The interuniversity competition is in one week. One week, Lee. If you keep disappearing and showing up like this, what do you think people are gonna say? You can’t even keep your own face in one piece, let alone represent our school.”
Mark flinched. That tiny twitch of his shoulders almost made Haechan regret saying it. Almost.
What are you hiding, Mark?
A story about secrets, rivalry, and the messy way hearts stumble toward each other. Between sharp words, stolen glances, and the weight of everything unsaid, Mark and Haechan find that sometimes the line between enemies, teammates, and something more is thinner than they ever thought.

Summary
"If you want to get me married, then I have a condition."
Chenle’s throat is dry and he briefly considers backing out before the format of a matrimonial profile flashes in his mind. If he needs to read the words outdoor person and family-oriented once more, he might throw up a few vital organs.
“You have to marry me off to a man.”
[ Alternatively: The one in which Chenle marries for family, Jisung marries for the economy, and between a ton of cut fruit and animal post-it notes, they stay married for each other. ]

Summary
Donghyuck can’t stand his neighbour, Mark Lee, who lives in apartment 403. Sure, the guy has a breathtaking smile and unfairly perfect hair, but that’s not enough to make up for the constant bickering. Whether it’s over noise complaints or stolen laundry machine time, they argue every second of the day.
After a year of nonstop squabbling, the building manager finally has enough and forces them onto shared cleaning duty. Naturally, another fight breaks out. But this time, the tension doesn’t burn out, it ignites into something else entirely.

Summary
Donghyuck has spent twenty-one years in the smallest town, cocooned by his parents and bound by the quiet rules of faith and tradition. His world has been soft, predictable, untouched by anything that might tempt him. That changes when he moves to Seoul for his master’s degree and his parents ask their family friend’s son, Mark, to look out for him.
Against their prayers, Mark does exactly that in more ways than one. He pulls Donghyuck into the city’s restless heat, showing him everything he’s been kept from and lingering just a little too close when he does. Every smile drips with suggestion, each touch is an invitation, and Donghyuck finds himself thinking less about lectures and more about the curve of Mark’s mouth.
Nights stretch into something heated and unrestrained, the city outside fading until all he can feel is the press of Mark’s body and the rush of something he can’t name. Seoul was meant to change his future, but with Mark, it’s changing the way he wants to live right now.

Summary
Mark Lee was Formula One’s golden boy. He lived for the race, the roar of engines, the blur of color on the track and the split-second decisions that made him everyone’s favourite. But somewhere in the grind of podiums, pressure and a four-year title drought, his spark thinned into something hollow. He kept winning just enough until the roar of the engine felt distant, but no one seemed to notice the burnout settling into his bones.
No one except Lee Donghyuck. The journalist who always asked the questions Mark didn’t want to answer. When Ferrari greenlit a season documentary and Donghyuck became the man behind the camera, the forced proximity turned suffocating and strangely comforting.
And somewhere in those long shoots and late edits, Donghyuck began pulling him back. Mark felt himself coming alive again, rediscovering the fire that made him who he was. In a world ruled by speed and control, he found himself anchored by the one person who made him want to feel everything.

Summary
Mark and Donghyuck never officially got together.
They circled each other for years—soft touches, long looks, nearly saying “I love you” at 3AM.
Then it turned physical. Quiet hookups. Unspoken boundaries. No promises. No feelings.Supposedly.
Then Mark pulled away, and they went back to being nothing more than best friends.
Now his solo album is out—and track eleven hits Donghyuck like a punch to the chest. The plane line. The brokenness. The light in the rain. It’s them.
And Donghyuck wants to ask why it was safe to write, but never safe to say.
Caught between aching memories and the reality of Mark pretending nothing happened, Donghyuck spirals quietly—until the silence finally breaks, and everything they’ve been avoiding comes undone.

Summary
Look, Donghyuck isn’t necessarily scared of rejection. What he is scared of is losing his best friend because of some pesky feelings, and it feels like he’s run out of options at this point.
Get over Mark? Hide his feelings and hope for the best? Find out whether or not Mark likes him back and fearlessly confess in case he does? Tried, tried, almost tried (curse you, Renjun).
Point is, he’s out of moves, which means it’s time to go on the offensive. Caution be damned. He’s gonna make Mark Lee fall in love with him or break his own heart trying.
