Fading Behind Your Smile || Seongjoong
47 parts Complete To Hongjoong, love means holding on no matter how much it hurts. He refuses to let go, even when Seonghwa starts to drift away-pulling back with forced smiles, empty words, and a distance he can't understand. Every day, Hongjoong asks herself what went wrong, why the person he loves feels so far even when he's right beside him.
What he doesn't know is the truth Seonghwa hides deep in his silence: a sickness with no cure, a secret that steals his strength little by little. He chooses to carry the burden alone, believing it's kinder to let him think he's tired of their love than to watch him shatter under the weight of his goodbye.
