Five years after their final concert, JiYong is a ghost in his own life-drifting through hotel rooms, unfinished tracks, and parties that blur into each other. The world still whispers his name, but he's forgotten how to answer. Then a postcard arrives. No return address. Just one word in shaky blue ink: Encore. It leads him to Gyeongju, an old city trapped in time, and to Seunghyun-older, quieter, buried in solitude and stone. They haven't spoken since the night everything fell apart. Now, between silent meals, broken lyrics, and paths once walked in another life, JiYong has to face what they left unsaid. But some fires don't burn out-they smolder. And when they finally ignite again, it might be too late to say goodbye properly.

Jiyong has always trusted Seung Hyun, but lately, the lines between friendship and something more have begun to blur. With the weight of fame pressing down on him, Jiyong finds himself drawn to Seung Hyun in ways he can't ignore. As their bond grows, Jiyong faces a choice-confront his feelings or risk losing the one person who's always been there for him.

Seunghyun is the quiet new neighbor who keeps to himself, spending his days under the sun and his nights beneath a dim porchlight, always with two bottles of soju by his side. The town sees him as a ghost-silent, distant, unknowable. But when Jiyong cross paths in the soft stillness of a supermarket aisle, something shifts. A quiet curiosity grows into a subtle longing, and soon, the boy everyone forgets becomes the only one Jiyong can't stop noticing. p/s: this was a story based on my chat with c.ai of @Mijeongie.

Kwon Ji Yong wakes in a room built like a shrine to him-luxury, silence, and no way out. His captor, Choi Seunghyun, claims it isn't a prison but a sanctuary, a place where Ji Yong belongs only to him. Fear should consume him... yet something darker stirs each time his "Master" whispers his name.

I've known Ji Yong since before the fame-when we shared a single room, cheap meals, and dreams too big for our reality. He told me to join the band, and I followed, like I always did. Then he came out. Then he kissed me. And suddenly, it wasn't just music I was chasing-it was him. This is how we fell. Slowly. Messily. Secretly. And maybe, hopelessly.

Based on real events. Jiyong and Seunghyun have an on and off relationship, but always seem to find their way back to each other. The story starts in 2014, and goes through the timeline of album releases, tours, scandals, military etc.
