Summary
Taehyung thought about what it meant to be the last barrier between life and death. The Greeks had words for this—psychopomp, Charon, ferryman—but the modern world settled for less: operator, doctor, surgeon.

Summary
Jeon Jeongguk is an actor at the height of his career, and Kim Taehyung is an artist who is just trying to support his family in the best way he knows how. They are two people who, despite their very different lives, have each been forced to play a role due to the circumstances they have found themselves in. When a rare plant unexpectedly brings them together, they are both challenged to shed their masks and reveal who they really are inside.
*****
“So you're telling me,” Nayoung asks, the volume of her voice rising slightly as she continues, “that you met THE Jeon Jeongguk on your hike, and you showed him some moss, and he rescued you when you fell, and then took you home and made out with you?”
“Yeah,” Taehyung sighs, “that would be accurate.”
Nayoung inhales deeply and closes her eyes. She lets out a long breath.
“Are you going to see him again?”
“Well…” Taehyung’s heart sinks with the realization as he says it out loud, “I didn’t get his number or anything… and…”
“...he’s fucking Jeon Jeongguk,” sighs Nayoung.

Summary
Like it isn’t enough that Namjoon looks like he should be playing the male lead in all the dramas on TVN, Jungkook must now also live with the fact that Namjoon spends his free time protecting baby birds from predators and is probably also responsible for, like, single-handedly saving all the world’s turtles and red pandas from extinction. Of course.
Or: Jungkook tries (and succeeds) to woo your friendly campus environmentalist, Namjoon.
