Summary
Jisung would be lying if he said he wasn’t always curious about Minho’s job. On a drunken night many many months ago, he got so curious that he asked Minho to tell him about some of the scenarios they’re asked to act out and Minho proceeded to tell him about a scenario many customers ask for that’s set in a hot spring where one of the guys offers to give the other a massage and it escalates from there.
It doesn’t really escalate. They never do stuff that might cause them indecency charges out in the open in a random café in downtown Seoul. But Jisung’s mind wandered, and his imagination sparked, and his brain was haunted by flashing images of Minho in a hot spring, giving, or receiving a massage, and things escalating, really escalating from there.
He never asked about his job after that.- - -
or: Jisung starts working at the yaoi café where his best friend, Minho, works.

Summary
“Call it a deal,” Minho says, leaning casually on the bar, enjoying the easy flow of the conversation. “You can come to the bar after a bad date, and I’ll be the one to listen. One drink. One rant. I’ll mix something different for you every time.”
Because you’re different. And I’m interested. And I really, really want to see you again.
Jisung has a type: hopeless. From the guy who talks about his ex to the omegaverse influencer and the one who brings a ferret to dinner, every week is another romantic disaster. Enter Minho, the bartender who knows just how to turn bad dates into the perfect drinks.
It starts as a joke– one drink, one rant, every time. But somewhere between The Mansplainer and The Lovers, between doodled coasters and unspoken glances, Minho starts to notice the problem isn’t that Jisung can’t find the right guy.
It’s that Jisung keeps coming back to the bar.
or: Every bad date deserves a good drink– and Jisung deserves the bartender who makes it.

Summary
He’s calm. He’s cool. He’s not thinking about the shape of Jisung’s mouth, or how well the suit fits him, or the way his eyes lit up just now, or whether he still smells like bergamot and broken dreams of a lifetime.
He’s fine. This is fine.
This is totally, completely fine.
At least that’s what Minho tries to convince himself about until, from the corner of his eye, catches Jisung starting to walk over.
Now, he is not so sure. Now, he might actually die.
Four years of yearning. Two years together. One year apart.
Minho thought he’d buried the what-ifs– until a wedding, a slow dance, two best men and strawberry champagne remind him just how unfinished some stories can be.
What begins as awkward glances slowly unfolds into painfully familiar tension. But before they can even think about something new, Minho and Jisung have to untangle everything that pulled them apart.
or: Minho thinks it’s over between him and Jisung– but some knots simply take longer to tie.
