Summary
“I would like to hire you for a regular job.” Over the phone, Seonghwa sounds polite and firm.
He goes on explaining the details of what he wants: someone to hang out with him every week for two hours, to accompany him to the movies or museums sometimes, someone who’d remember his birthday and get him a thoughtful gift (he’d deposit extra money for the occasion), to share a few of his interests. He wants a friend. A friend.

[ hongjoong, a college student, works as a friend for rent to make ends meet, and seonghwa, a very lonely man, hires him to emulate what he believes to be a normal friendship. ]

Seonghwa is hurting in a way that makes no space for Hongjoong, so their movie scene can’t unfold smoothly

Summary
All of them shuffled aside when from the direction Seonghwa hadn't explored yet; another person came with his horse. The man had a regular riding helmet dangling from his arm that didn't lead the gorgeous blue roan Trakehner by its reins. His horse had a star on its dark forehead and carried itself with the same grace and nobility as the man by its side. The click of his English riding boots that framed his white breeches matched every well-placed step of the horse. His green jacket sat snug and expensive on his body. It reached until his mid-thigh, giving him even more of a military commander vibe.
The boys around Seonghwa stood straighter, as if the man coming through was an officer they had to obey. With a glance at the riding crop tucked in the man's gloved fingers, Seonghwa did the same.

Summary
“I reckon ye only be mad at me,” he started, his eyes closing shut like he knew the prince would bring him no harm. “ ‘Cause ye 'ave no freedom in yer own life.”
A simple sentence was all it was really, words compiled together to form a meaning. Sometimes such meanings were in fact meaningless, they held no truth and were only spoken for the sake of aggravation. Though in even rarer times, there was truth rooted in the very ground of the meaning and that was what caused the aggravation.
But what would a pirate know?
Or: Royal prince Seonghwa who is first in line for the throne, finally meets the recently captured and most feared pirate in all the Seven Seas who has been condemned to death. Every year on the feast on the Ceremony of the Golden Rose, the crown prince is to take a rose dipped in gold to present to one special prisoner as a gift of freedom and a new start at life. This year is like no other, besides the fact that the great pirate king who infuriates Seonghwa to no end might end up shedding a new kind of light on the young and very adventurous prince, changing his views altogether.

Summary
Seonghwa had been obsessed with werewolves his whole life.
He knew the intense pull he felt towards lycans was confusing for other vampires, and he honestly couldn’t even blame them – not even he himself could begin to understand why he felt the way he did about their so-called ‘mortal enemies’.
Seonghwa had enough self-awareness to accept that there was probably something very wrong with him. A loose wire in his brain that made him spend stupidly high amounts of money on drugs laced with werewolf semen.
Something that made him pay no attention to other vampires, or even humans, because he was too busy fantasizing about yellow eyes and bicolor fur while high on W.

Summary
When Seonghwa’s tour boat capsizes, sending all of its occupants into the churning waves, he and seven others manage to make it to a small island on the horizon, overgrown with vegetation and clearly bearing no other signs of human life. With high tensions, they are forced to work together to survive, and he easily gets along with all but one of his fellow castaways.
Hongjoong is closed off and hot-headed, and eventually Seonghwa gives up on the possibility of civility between the two of them. Still, as the nights come and go and time seems to stretch into one continual loop, he realizes there is more to Hongjoong than he’d initially thought.
The island becomes their new normal, and Seonghwa becomes so accustomed to life there that he can hardly remember what it was like before the world had forgotten about them. Never did they anticipate a rescue, nor the world’s obsession with the eight boys who came back from the dead.

You wonder if maybe it could have been a different kind of love. If we got the chance.

Summary
“Oh my God”, Hongjoong said, blinking, as he looked into Seonghwa‘s eyes again. When he recognized the look in them and realized what it meant. “This is your first life.”
Or: Hongjoong had always known that this would be his last life. He had seen it all, over and over again, the beginning and the end. And he was tired of it. The way the light filtered through the leaves of the tree. The sunrise - it held no wonder for him anymore. Only apathy. Melancholy.
Until he met a boy, with wonder in his eyes, who looked at the world like he had never seen it before.

Summary
It’s been going on for a while by the time they get caught.
After they split dorms, Hongjoong starts sleeping in Seonghwa's bed from time to time. Neither of them ever mentions it in the light of day.
