to fall in love with you once more ⟢ haobin

this is a haobin fanfic!

જ⁀➴♡

post the disbandment of 5th gen ace kpop boy group, zerobaseone, the 9 boys re-emerge in 2 groups that are set up to rival each other. competition in this industry is fuelled on by each group's company, restricting contact between the 9 boys who compete for the top one 6th gen boy group. two boys that once shared an unaddressed, burning love for each other are set on opposite sides of the madness of the industry. what happens when they meet again after 2 years of no interaction, at the debut show of new boy group: A5TERA? and has either of them forgotten the once-made promise in the shadows of a midnight drenched room, during the midst of their hectic disbandment 3 years ago?

or, even after 2 years away from his lost love, sung hanbin finds that he still can't let go of the boy he fell for in boys planet. Little does he know, somewhere on the other side of seoul, zhang hao mirrors every thread of longing in his heart, every ache that thrums through his chest. As schedules and comebacks begin to pull the two boys' lives back into intersection, hanbin slowly develops a new mindset, one that firms through each unreadable glance cast his way by hao: no matter how far hao tries to run, no matter how the industry pulls them apart, he will find a way to bring them back together. he will make their love thrive.
