US - MinLix

After Minho's father remarries, his quiet apartment life is suddenly shared with 18-year-old Felix - bright, affectionate, messy, and impossible to ignore.

Minho is 26, already exhausted from work, responsibilities, and trying to keep everything in control. Felix crashes into his life like sunlight: staying up too late gaming in the kitchen, dancing around the house in oversized hoodies, and treating Minho with a warmth nobody else does.

At first, Minho tells himself his feelings are protective. Felix is younger, new to the city, and trying hard to balance school, friends, and his relationship with Jisung.
But Jisung slowly becomes a problem.

Not in obvious ways at first. He's charming around other people, funny, and affectionate when it benefits him. But behind closed doors, he's careless with Felix's feelings.
