I'm translating my fanfic "Hãy Gọi Ta Là Đại Ca" into English for non-Vietnamese speaking KBin shippers.
I try to stay close to real events that happened in history (Vietnam 400 years ago)/in ILand. I keep Hanbin's characteristics/things he said/th...
After the summer camp, K, Nicholas, and Hanbin return home with many questions. But Nicholas is the one who has the most clues. 11 pm, he knocks on Hanbin's door.
- Some fresh air under the stars?
Back in those days in Japan, Nicholas named the brightest star Hanbin. Whenever he missed his parents, his Formosa (ancient Taiwan), or the person he loves, Nicholas just looked up to the sky, talking his heart out with that star. Tonight, Hanbin is here, right next to him, but just like that star, he again seems unreachable.
- Hanbin, if you had met me first, would you have fallen in love with me?
- I don't know if I love K because I met him first. He's the one who could open my heart and he's been staying there rent-free. He doesn't even remember who the landlord is, but I cannot just kick him out...
- So if he moves out, will you let me in?
- Nicholas ah, love isn't like a line. When I'm in love, I don't have backup plans. But, you have never had feelings for anyone else, all those years?
- The person who takes up room in my heart, I'm too used to having him there. I don't think I can stand that emptiness if he leaves.
- Let's make a deal then. After 3 months, if their staying only brings us sadness, we will take back that room, leaving it for happiness and joy only. Ok?
Deal!
Finally, the end of part 1 is coming. Hung is too used to standing still, listening to the host calling other names. Although the results are based on global voting, Hung does not dare to hope much. He's not sure how Mnet portrays him. He's afraid that his friends in Vietnam have lost faith in him already, as he was the first to be voted out and never got a chance to Iland. If he could check Facebook and Twitter, he wouldn't be this nervous.
There is only one chance left.
Nicholas.
Hung bursts with joy. Hung's always been rooting for Nicholas's debut. He deserves a life filled with love from his fans, to make up for all those years of loneliness. But why does Nicholas look unhappy with the result?
What are they trying to do? Didn't they agree that Hanbin will be the one to get to Iland? But he gets the answer right when the host calls Hanbin's name. Nicholas clutches the microphone in his hand and his whole body trembles.

They try to make Hanbin and Nicholas go head-to-head? One's success must be paid with the other's failure? Nicholas knows Hung doesn't want to step on anyone, especially him. But what's he afraid even more is that Hanbin has to stop. PDs, you all are so cruel!
When Hanbin's name is called out loud, Nicholas sighs in relief, a smile quickly forms on his face.
In the waiting room, K frowns in confusion. Why did Hanbin cry when Nicholas was eliminated, but not when he was moved to Iland? Does Hanbin really have deep feelings for that Taiwanese guy? Or is it only because he's such a kind and lovable person, just like what K's always been told?
