Summary
“You sang it like you were apologizing to God and daring him to forgive you at the same time.”
Mark Lee isn't looking for a revelation, but in the middle of Coachella he hears a voice - imperfect, alive, and burning with something he lost a long time ago.

Summary
At nineteen, Mark and Donghyuck got lost in Rome and laughed about it like it didn’t matter. In their early twenties, they chased cities – Budapest, London, Singapore... Anywhere that felt bigger than the lives waiting for them at home.
There was always a next trip and another plan. And then, life narrowed, and “next year” quietly turned into three years of nothing. Now Mark is exhausted, stuck in a life that doesn’t quite fit, while Donghyuck fills the silence with noise and people who never stay long enough to matter. They still orbit around each other, but at a distance that neither of them fully understands, and neither of them quite knows how to close.
Until one long-overdue trip to Bali.

Summary
“I’d honestly give your restaurant five stars if I could.”
“You literally can… Google Reviews are free.”
Although he lives in the City of Love, Lee Donghyuck’s romantic life is practically non-existent. He’s too much of a workaholic, letting his entire life slip by in his restaurant. His routine is enjoyable, but dwindling towards monotony—that is, until he allows his self-proclaimed most loyal customer Na Jaemin sneak his way into it.

Summary
Donghyuck thinks of Mark Lee’s dumb, earnest face, his not-quite-dimpled smile, his jeans, his cursebreaker hands. So much had changed in those two years since high school, and yet. And yet.
Call me if you want help, Mark had said.
--
or: a backfired spell, a reconciliation of mortality, and a lot of awkward flirting. And still, Mark Lee sticks around.Bookmarked by gowons

Summary
Jaemin has only been at the orphanage for a few weeks, but he learned quickly that most people at St. Francis will leave you alone if you ignore them hard enough.
Donghyuck Lee is not like most people.
