Summary
In a world where emotions don’t exist, Seonghwa thrives. He’s top of his class at Prestige Academy, destined to become great. When he’s one of the students taken by the Black Pirates, everything begins to unravel: his life, his beliefs, his own body, and the chip behind his ear that he thought was there to protect them.
He has a decision to make. Leave and return to his old life and forget about everything he heard, or stay with them, and decide whether there is any truth to what their leader, Kim Hongjoong, says.
Or, in a world that actively prohibits feelings, Hongjoong teaches Seonghwa what it means to feel everything.

Summary
For weeks, Hongjoong only knows him as the quiet man who sits in the same corner of the hospital waiting room.
They exchange small smiles across the room, never speaking.
Until one day, Hongjoong finally learns his name.
Park Seonghwa.
After that, nothing stays simple anymore.

Summary
Utopia: Quest for Freedom is the hottest MMORPG on the market. The number one guild in the game, Astra Noctis is thought to be a group of hardcore players bent on being the best. As it turns out, they're really just a group of idiots enjoying the game, but yes, they do want to be the best.
Hongjoong works hard as a music producer, and Utopia is his stress relief. It helps that he has grown so close to one particular member known only to him as Toothless. The crush is all encompassing at times, but Hongjoong does his best to ignore it. He is sure he can keep it under wraps... but then they all start talking about meeting up in real life at Utopia's upcoming game convention.
The thought of meeting Toothless in person fills Hongjoong with a mix of excitement and anxiety. Will the reality match his expectations? Or will he find himself acting like a fool, lost for words in Toothless's presence? The potential for awkwardness only adds to the anticipation of the meeting.

Summary
The email from management had arrived on a Tuesday, which Hongjoong had always considered a cursed day of the week. The subject line read: Mandatory Sensitivity & Professional Conduct Training – All Members. The body of the email was three paragraphs of HR language that amounted to: we have seen the fancams, and we have concerns.

Summary
Yunho sinks backward until his legs give out and he drops onto the alley floor, the cold, filthy concrete soaking through his jeans. He doesn’t care. His breaths start coming too fast, too shallow, each one scraping at his throat like it can’t quite get enough air.
His shoulders shake as he presses the pocketbook to his chest, head tipping forward as he rocks slightly, like his body is trying to fold in on itself.
Mingi is gone.
