    Summary

    "Here was Gi-hun, with his lifetime of tragedy and difficulty, picking up strangers in the rain and campaigning for the inherent value of mankind. And if that existed, if it was possible to sustain that even in spite of immense hardship, maybe it wasn't circumstance that had turned In-ho into something bitter. If Gi-hun was possible, if his worldview was somehow sustainable, that meant that whatever In-ho became was not a result of a bad situation; it was inherent. He was always empty, or capable of emptiness, and wasn't that the same thing?"

    FAKE DATING AU. No Squid Games, just other trauma and the power of grief competing with the audacity of hope.

    Summary

    Gi-hun's entire life has fallen apart, but he’s been managing to hold himself together, picking up the pieces of himself in the aftermath of a messy divorce. But one day, he arrives at work early to find something that sends his entire world crashing down around him for a second time.

    A tasteless, disgusting prank – because that’s all it is, what else could it be?

    “I think someone may even harbor some kind of disturbing fascination with you, Gi-hun. But you need to understand – the Board only sees that you're causing problems.” Il-nam pauses to break eye contact, expression grim. “I don’t mean to speak ill of your area colleagues, but they're not good enough to save your career from this. Any of them.”

    Just as despair grips Gi-hun within its sharp talons, In-ho, who has been silently observing the entire exchange, finally speaks up – offering salvation that reverberates through the silent office like a crack of thunder.

    “I’ll do it.”

    Summary

    Seong Gi-hun’s best friend, Hwang In-ho, disappeared for a week. When he returned, everything about him seemed... normal.

    But something’s off. He acts like In-ho, talks like him, even smiles like him. But deep down, Gi-hun can’t shake the feeling that something’s wrong. He feels uneasy, like a vital piece is missing from the man he once knew.

    Gi-hun wants to believe it’s just his mind playing tricks on him. He wants to ignore the creeping suspicion that this isn’t really In-ho. But the more time they spend together, the harder it becomes to pretend everything’s fine.

    OR

    In-ho’s back, but he’s not the same. Gi-hun feels it in every touch, every word, and yet, he can’t bring himself to walk away. Something’s wrong with In-ho, but what if the man he’s trying to hold on to isn’t really him at all?

    Summary

    He leans forward to brush a strand of hair from her tearful eyes, just like he always does. It reminds her of the time they’d almost kissed under a sky full of lanterns all those years ago.
