Some lives don't change all at once. They shift slowly-through small moments, quiet choices, and the presence of someone who refuses to leave. When Lee Leo returns to Seoul after spending his whole life abroad, he isn't searching for anything in particular-only a sense of direction he's never quite found. But one impulsive act at a crosswalk places him in the path of Lee Sangwon, a man who has spent the last four years trapped between memory and survival after losing his sight. What begins as a simple act of help becomes something neither of them expected. Sangwon, who has learned to keep the world at a distance, finds himself drawn to Leo's steady presence-someone who does not treat him as fragile, but as someone still whole. Leo, in turn, begins to understand that some silences carry entire lives within them-and that love, when it comes, does not arrive loudly, but lingers in the spaces people are most afraid to open. As their bond deepens, both men are forced to confront the parts of themselves they've been avoiding-fear, loss, purpose, and the possibility of a future neither believed they deserved. This is a story about learning to be seen without sight, about rebuilding a life from what remains, and about a love that grows not from perfection, but from patience. Because sometimes, the most powerful thing someone can do... is stay.

"I didn't expect to get lost... or to find him." When Leo moves from Australia to Korea for university, he expects a language barrier. He doesn't expect Sangwon. Assigned as his campus guide, Sangwon is everything Leo is not - bright, clumsy, and endlessly cheerful. Their first conversations are awkward, full of broken English, hesitant smiles, and glitchy translation apps. Slowly, Leo begins to understand not just the words, but the warmth behind them. Yeonjun, a confident senior, helps Leo navigate campus life, patiently teaching him Korean and bridging the sentences Leo cannot yet form. Meanwhile, Soobin - cheeky, flirty, and impossible to ignore - teases Yeonjun relentlessly, adding his own mischief to campus life. Together, these four navigate miscommunications, unspoken feelings, and the quiet thrill of connection. Words may falter, but hearts understand one another. Under the same sky, four hearts discover that love doesn't always need flawless words - just courage.

So, what's a 'loser' with no plan in life to do, except flee abroad and escape having to think about life for a while? Nick had no idea what he'd find in the Netherlands.

Sangwon is twenty-two, a single father, and barely surviving a life built on exhaustion and broken promises. Love left him once, and he swore it would never return. Then Leo appears-quiet, steady, impossible to ignore. He doesn't ask for explanations. He doesn't offer easy answers. He simply stays, weaving himself into Sangwon's carefully guarded world. And somewhere along the way, the past comes knocking-a bond Sangwon thought lost, a family he never expected to see again. And for the first time in years, Sangwon begins to wonder if some things that were lost were never truly gone. This is a story about love that waits, loyalty that endures, and a heart learning to believe it's allowed to want again.

[COMPLETED] [2025 Wattys Honorable Mention] Danny's neighbor should be illegal. There's no way someone should be that attractive. They've lived next door to each other for over a year. As a skinny, clumsy, sweater-loving, Modern Poetry professor, Danny never believed someone like him could catch the eye of someone as perfect as Brett. But when Danny (accidentally) RSVPs to a destination wedding he never wanted to attend, he realizes he's in a bind-he needs a plus-one. And somehow, Brett becomes his unexpected solution. Brett's MMA career was on the brink of greatness until an injury stopped him cold. Now, trying to reclaim his spot in the octagon and live up to heavy expectations, the last thing Brett expected was to build a friendship with the neighbor he's been crushing on. However, Danny is undeniably gorgeous and way out of his league, so he needs to maintain realistic expectations. But, when Danny needs a date for a destination wedding, Brett's first instinct is to offer his help. Being his fake boyfriend would not be a hardship. A romantic beach, a fake relationship, and one bed... what could go wrong?

Their future, including him-Sangwon.
