Summary
When Jaeyeol saw Jisung round the corner of the restaurant, his face brightened like it was the sun itself. He looked truly dazzling, dressed to kill. Or to steal hearts. When his eyes fell on Minho, his expression only shifted slightly, a flash of confusion, then annoyance, before settling carefully back into a calm smile.
“Jisung, good to see you again,” he beamed. “You too Minho sunbaenim. Sorry, I didn’t realise you were coming, I’d have gotten a bigger table.”
Minho didn’t miss the lack of honorific after Jisung’s name. Just how close were these two?
“No matter,” Minho said brightly, “I can squish in next to Hannie.” He pulled up a chair, dragging it so it was as close to Jisung as physically possible. Their thighs pressed under the table and their shoulders grazed.
“There,” he said, smiling sweetly, "problem solved."
Minho and Jisung have always avoided any 'feelings' that might be between them for the sake of the group. But when a swoon-worthy newly debuted idol confesses his admiration for Jisung on national TV and pursues him, Minho does not take it well.

Summary
The conclusion Minho has come to after nights spent thinking of wavy brown hair when he spaces out during Jeongin’s kids shows, days spent with his eyes skimming the beach for a glimpse of honey skin, is that humans have an interest in the unknown.
Jisung is a new character in his day to day, the first in ages, ever since Hyeju got hired as a lifeguard. Jisung is pretty and he’s from the mainland but he seems to be setting up a life here, and Minho knows nothing about him besides his name. His brain has inexplicably latched onto a weaved story, a routine thing he and Hyunjin do, because humanity craves to learn more about the unknown.
The Jisung in his head is separate from the Jisung on the beach, though they look the same. A temporary annoyance, a psychological torment.
(OR: Minho, left to care for his younger brother after his parents death, works to make ends meet and doesn't have time for distractions. Jisung, a free-spirited and very distracting surfer, moves to town and turns Minho's world on it's head.)

Summary
“Why didn't you tell me?” Jisung asks softly.
“That my marriage was falling apart?” Minho speaks so glibly, like it’s no big deal; like he’s talking about bad weather or heavy traffic.
Jisung groans, a little annoyed that this is how his concern is being met; but then he pulls back and considers—this is just how Minho is. How Minho always has been. He doesn’t like when people fuss over him, and he prefers keeping his problems to himself. Back in the day, Jisung knew how to penetrate his walls; he wants to think that he still does.
“Who wants to talk about a failing marriage, Jisung-ah?” Minho sighs. “We hardly see each other as it is—I’d rather have fun when we meet up. Wouldn’t you?”
in which: Jisung and Minho reconnect after Minho ends his marriage, and long buried memories, feelings, emotions, come bubbling up to the surface.

Summary
Minho didn't expect anyone to actually answer when he pounded on the cabin door, but when the door is answered by an inhabitant that can't even seem to keep himself alive, it looks like Minho is going to have to rescue more than just one box of kittens from the blizzard. Snowed in together, Minho has no option than to get to know Jisung, who is more than willing to break the ice.

Summary
“Alright, start whenever you’d like.”
Minho leans back in his chair. He crosses his arms over his chest and exhales through his nose, ready to sit through another dull audition.
That’s honestly what he thought it would be. Until Jisung starts singing.
After their former lead vocalist leaves, Minho’s band desperately needs a new singer. Han Jisung is up for the challenge.
