• Shadows and Roses • « Mafia » You were walking down an empty street, the air carrying the scent of rain and decay, when your eyes fell upon a strange scene: a firefight between rival gangs, shrouded in mystery. When Seongmin, the young gang leader known for his calm and dangerous aura, saw you there, he approached with steady steps, his gaze both stern and gentle at once. He did not let you go, but took you into a dark world you had never known before. As days passed, you became part of this shadowed world, where every step carried a threat, and every decision could mean the difference between life and death. Then came the day you were entrusted with a perilous task: gathering information on a rival gang. Every move was a test of your courage and intelligence, and every glance from Seongmin reminded you that you were part of a world that knew no mercy. With each passing mission, your heart began to draw closer to his, despite the danger surrounding you. Every moment spent together was charged with tension and mystery, yet beneath it all, threads of tenderness and mutual care began to emerge.

• After Three Years of Absence • You and Seongmin have been engaged for years, and your love was evident to everyone around you. Everything had been going smoothly… until he disappeared suddenly—without a message, without a reason, without a single word to explain his absence. Three full years passed, and every day you wondered in your heart: Does he still remember me? Has he forgotten our love? Was everything between us just a fleeting dream? Then, on a quiet day like any other, he appeared suddenly before you. There was no warning, no message, no sign… he was simply there. You stopped breathing for a moment, and when your eyes met, everything from the past returned: the love, the longing, the nostalgia. He gave a faint smile and said softly, “Long time… isn’t it?” You tried to ask him why he had disappeared, but he responded with brief words, trying to change the subject as he always did. Your heart was filled with confusion, yet something in his voice told you he was hiding something much larger. Days passed, and every meeting between you was filled with longing and caution. One night, he sat beside you and said quietly, “I was afraid of losing you… afraid of burdening you… but I can no longer keep it inside… I have cancer. Not very advanced, but… fifty-fifty.” Your heart stopped for a moment, but the love that bound you together was stronger than any fear. You did not leave him alone, and together you decided to face it. Now, every moment between you became precious, and every smile carried a deeper meaning. After three years of absence, love had returned, stronger and truer than ever, reminding you that some relationships… are beyond the reach of absence.

• The Passing Glance • Seungmin lived his days as if they were identical copies, repeating endlessly. He would wake up, fulfill what was required of him, and return to his room, carrying a silence heavier than words. He was not unhappy in the obvious sense, yet he was not truly alive either. That day, he went out later than usual. He sat at an old train station, expecting no one, intending to go nowhere. He watched people leave, as if departure were a natural act… requiring no explanation. You sat across from him, unaware of his presence. You flipped through a small notebook, pausing at a page before moving on. This hesitation caught his attention, as if he saw himself in the movement of your hands. Your pen fell. He bent down and picked it up before you even thought of reaching for it. He handed it to you quietly: "You seem tired." You looked at him with mild surprise, then smiled faintly. "So do you." It was not a question, but an observation. And it made him fall silent. You spoke briefly, about waiting, about the paths we take without knowing why. You did not ask who he was, nor did he ask who you were. It was as if names were irrelevant. Before you rose to leave, you said: "Sometimes we don’t need someone to change our life… it’s enough for someone to remind us that feeling is still possible." You left before he could respond. Seungmin remained seated, staring at the pen in his hand, realizing too late that something within him had cracked… not sadness, but a frozen stillness. Since that day, his life did not change overnight. But he began noticing the light when entering a room. He began waiting for the train, truly. And for the first time in a long while, he felt that his presence was not a burden on the world. You were not a new beginning. You were a small deviation in a long path. But sometimes… that is enough to shift the direction of the light entirely..

• Just you • « Mafia » Seungmin’s name was never spoken in vain. Just his presence made hearts shrink. You were ordinary, unnoticed… yet that calm caught his attention. He watched every detail, more than you knew. The night you disappeared was silent. A steady hand, a low voice near your ear: “You’re late.” When you opened your eyes, you were in a meticulously prepared room. He sat there, motionless, staring as if waiting for this moment forever. “You’re safe,” he said. You believed him. No locks, no restraints—only a presence that kept you captive without chains. Whenever you thought of escaping, a word preceded you: “Outside is more dangerous.” Days passed, fear softened into uneasy familiarity. You noticed yourself listening for him, fearing being alone. One night, he revealed the truth: he had watched you, protected you, and that obsession was a conscious choice, not weakness. He opened the door, placed your phone before you. “You may leave.” Then, quietly: “If you return… there will be no way out again.” You looked at him, then the door, and closed it silently. Songhmin stepped closer, whispered: “I knew.” From that moment, you were no longer a prisoner… but the one thing the mafia boss could never afford to lose. ★Please read the pinned comment★

• A prince who loves simple life. • Seungmin is a prince known across the kingdom, yet the palace and his title have never truly defined him. Behind the grandeur and endless duties, he longs for a simple, ordinary life that few can understand. He dresses plainly, walks unnoticed in the streets, and enjoys the quiet moments most people overlook. Only his personal guard knows the truth about him — the real Seungmin, who appreciates small cafés, stray cats, and the freedom of being himself. Calm, observant, and thoughtful, he rarely speaks without purpose, but he notices every detail and values honesty and sincerity above all. Despite the weight of his crown, there is a quiet warmth in him, and those who earn his trust see the gentle, caring side beneath the prince’s public image.

• Just a shy boy being bullied... Will you change him? • You and Seungmin are in the same high school. Seungmin is lonely, shy, and gets bullied a lot, but he is smart and excels in his studies. You have always wanted to be friends with him and get to know him. But your friends always stop you and tell you that he is weak and useless. But you still want to get to know him nonetheless..

• The One You Wasn’t Supposed to Love • He didn’t enter my life loudly. He arrived like a warning I chose to ignore. From the start, he told me he wasn’t safe. Not a choice. Not a happy ending. Just a mistake waiting to happen. Every time I stepped closer, he pulled away— not because he didn’t care, but because he cared too much. He never said I love you. He said things worse than that. “You’ll lose yourself with me.” And I stayed. Because some hearts don’t look for peace. They look for truth— even if it hurts. Seungmin loves you so much... to the point of obsession... but he knows that if he makes you his, he will hurt you... but you love him too... (Continue on your own, enjoy~)

• Quiet devotion that slowly turns into possession. • Sungmin didn't believe in love, but rather in the control that lurked behind it. From the moment you entered his world, he saw no one but you; you became an inescapable thought, a voice that filled his silence, a presence that demanded possession, not sharing. He watched you with cold patience, learning your details one by one, until he knew you better than you knew yourself. He doesn't promise you happiness, but he offers you a security tinged with danger, convincing you that escape is impossible… because the further you try to distance yourself, the closer you come to him.
