Soobin and Beomgyu have been best friends since childhood. Ever since they first met at the small corner of the park with two swings when they were kids, they have been inseparable. It all changed during the summer of their Senior year of high school. Soobin had a growth spurt and a massive glow up, which made him almost unrecognizable from who he was before. This caused him to get the attention of many popular groups and the eyes of girls. Meanwhile, Beomgyu didn't thrive as well as Soobin did. He started to become less sociable, always hiding behind his study materials with his headphones as protection. They drifted apart over time, with Soobin hanging out with his new friends while Beomgyu was always seen alone Soobin was enjoying these new experiences he got, back then barely anyone noticed him besides Beomgyu. Despite all of this he always felt like a part of him was missing, like he was missing his other half. Will their friendship be forever destroyed or will it rekindle into something better?

Forward | Rewind to Tomorrow [Michael Jackson]

"It causes your immune system to turn against you," I explained gently. The color terrifyingly drained from his face as he stared at his knuckles. "I have a spot," he whispered, his voice scraping like glass. "Right here." He let out a strangled noise as the stadium footage buffered. "Riley!" he shrieked, covering his burning face while peering through his fingers at his future self. "Those pants leave absolutely nothing to the imagination!" He went so unnaturally still I thought his heart had stopped beating. His charcoal-stained fingers curled into tight fists. "Fifty," he whispered, scanning the fatal summary on the glowing screen. "I am... I am gone at fifty." What if the only way to save your future was to completely abandon your past? In 1982, Michael Jackson is suffocating. Trapped behind his family's compound gates and drowning under industry pressure, the rising star just wants a life of peace and normalcy. The universe answers-violently ripping him from his timeline and dropping him onto the bedroom rug of Riley, a freelance graphic designer in the year 2025. Stranded forty-three years in the future, Michael must face a world that already knows his tragic history. But Riley fiercely refuses to let that history repeat. She offers him the anonymous, ordinary life he always craved, rebuilding his shattered confidence brick by brick and teaching him the radical concept of self-love. More importantly, she arms him with the ultimate weapon: the brutal truth. She gives him the exact names of the snakes hiding in his 1982 backyard, the upcoming betrayals, and the devastating tragedies he is destined to face. When the universe inevitably pulls him back, Michael is no longer the timid pop star terrified of his shadow. He is a king preparing to claim his throne, knowing exactly how to rewrite music history and what it takes to survive. But armed with the future, changing his fate might cost him the one person who taught him how to live.
