A slow-burn romance about fate, friendship, and love finding you when you least expect it.

Kang Jaeyoung had been close friends with Yeon Jeonghoo since their first year of middle school. With their parents mostly out of the picture, they naturally relied on each other throughout their struggles. But after being told that his soul was inadvertently placed in the wrong world, Jaeyoung is suddenly punished with nightmares. At first, they weren’t so bad, but they got increasingly disturbing over time. Eventually, they were so unbearable that he was afraid to fall asleep. It was then that he discovered that when he slept while being in some sort of physical contact with Jeonghoo, he drowsed restfully and dreamlessly. At that realization, Jaeyoung embarrassedly asked Jeonghoo to sleep beside him at night. But as their feelings grow even deeper than their initial depth, their “unrequited” loves become intertwined, breaking through the barrier and extending beyond. Light begins to peek through the cracks, undeniably bound to shed its beams upon hidden devotions once that wall inevitably collapses. Deeply devoted and clingy top (Yeon Jeonghoo) x Completely smitten and caring bottom (Kang Jaeyoung) *This. Is. An. Omegaverse! I repeat! OMEGAVERSE!!! *Friends to lovers *There will be smut *This is a light read. Do not expect incredible plot twists or excellent wording. There will be a few original aspects and I’m actively avoiding cliches, especially some VERY overused ones, but I can’t guarantee that they will be nonexistent.

I remember the way he looked at me, his eyes weaving a tapestry of promises. I trusted him with my whole heart, unaware that those threads would soon unravel, leaving me shattered.

However, as time goes by, he changes from being kind and affectionate. Then, due to Sung-joon's complacency, Hae-young's mother gets into a serious accident. Hae-young goes to Sung-joon, who was flirting with his best friend Min-ji at the time, and confronts him. "Did I know your mother would do that? If you care so much, you should take care of your mother. Why is it my fault?" Instead of feeling sorry, Sung-joon breaks up with her. After the breakup, Sung-joon and Min-ji appear on the dating program as if they had been waiting for it. They become the center of attention on the show by talking about Hae-young, and eventually become very popular. Hae-young, who was frustrated after losing 6 years, her mother, and her love, accidentally goes back to the moment right before her mother got into an accident. "Mom, don't come! Stay still!" She takes this opportunity to save her mother and vows revenge on Sung-joon and Min-ji. Hae-young plans to secretly appear on the same program as them and get all the attention they both enjoyed. The problem is finding a male friend who fits the program's concept of "appearing with a friend." A very handsome and well-made male friend. At that time, the man she had coincidentally encountered on the day she prevented her mother's accident loomed over her. Yoon-hyuk unexpectedly accepted the ridiculous offer she made, thinking, "No way." "Isn't there anyone around you as handsome as me?" "No. Are you having trouble being objective? Looks like your's are rare." "Well, there might be. Maybe a friend you met when you were young, or someone who saved your life. Try to remember." Hae-young didn't realize it at the time. He was hinting that he had known Hae-young for a long time. The man who Hae-young had given all of her savings as a condition for his appearance was actually the fourth generation of a conglomerate. That's how Haeyoung and Yoonhyuk, Sungjun and Minji meet in "Friendship Romance"

Now blacklisted and alone, Mitsunari is left to piece together what really happened—and whether he can survive without the spotlight. As lies pile up and bridges burn, he has to face who he is without the group, and whether he’s strong enough to fight for a comeback… or let it all go. Mitsunari is a sharp, emotional dive into idol culture, cancel culture, and the brutal cost of living in the public eye.
