Summary
“How do you bear it?” Till asks, pulling out a few tufts of grass. He crushes them along with a handful of sunlight inside his fist. “Knowing that you won’t get all those years, even though you are supposed to.”
Supposed, Ivan thinks. It is a rather funny word. Flowers are supposed to keep blooming for over a week before they wither and die. Insects are supposed to live between two to four weeks, barely surpassing the measly span of a month. Fish are supposed to make it to five years, even more if they are fed well. Moss, ironically, can survive up to a decade. All entities have their limitations, their entire lifetimes amounting to a tiny fraction on the large scale of the universe. Ivan’s own limitation is at least still a bit farther.
It would be enough, Ivan wants to say, against common sense. It would be enough to know that I still have tomorrow with you.
(Or: Ivan is born with a crater the size of a 100-won coin in his chest. It takes him many years to find the thing that can fill its space.)

Summary
Back in college, Till met Ivan at a bar, and somehow, got lucky enough to spend the night with him. As most one night stands go, they never saw each other after that.
Now, Till is working as an elementary school art teacher and this year he has a student that looks suspiciously too much like him. He tried not to think much of it until parent-teacher conferences come around and Ivan walks through the door.

The first time anyone has ever stood between Dokja and his mother, he glimpses something he’s never known: care. In front of Joonghyuk, he’s the fragile boy who needs protection. Behind closed doors, he’ll do whatever it takes to keep Joonghyuk’s attention on him.
Because to Kim Dokja, being seen is everything. And he will make sure he is the only one Yoo Joonghyuk ever sees.

Summary
The orphanage always brought in new kids after Sânge Noapte, fished up from wells and gathered up from attic crawl spaces from the rural villages too small to withstand the annual slaughter. Ivan had been found tucked away underneath the floorboards beneath his mother’s body. They said he had been so thoroughly soaked in her blood that they couldn’t even tell what color his hair was supposed to be.

Or, a hunter and his prey.
