Jinyoung was the perfect student in high school: good grades, top of the class, had his shit together. Turns out college is slightly different, especially when the music major at the back of the classroom rivals his top spot in biology, of all subjects.

Mark and Jackson are adorable as hell and also happen to be best friends with Jinyoung and Jaebum respectively, which Jinyoung absolutely despises. Youngjae is everybody's self-proclaimed sunshine of a son, with Markson doting on him the most. He doesn't mind, though he's still not really sure how he ended up in all of this to be honest.

And Yugbam...? They're working on it (with help from the others of course).

Unspoken, muffled by the screams of fans and drowned in the sweat of practice, as much for their own sakes as the other members’. Funny, then, that it should be the combined effects of sweat, fans, and the other members that finally make them lose it.

The Rumor Mill

Ever since he was young, all Park Jinyoung wanted was to be a star. The next thing he wants is to be in one of critically acclaimed cult director Im Jaebum's movies––he is everything Jinyoung wants in a director; subversive, visceral, unapologetically and openly gay. But with the critical acclaim comes a well-known coldness: Im Jaebum makes his dislike known and, despite Jinyoung's success with landing a role, it seems like he's not immune to the cold front. Jinyoung must decide: stick it out for a big break, or throw it away when Im Jaebum turns out to be too much to handle?

Or: one person must learn patience, the other, gentleness, and both people must learn what it means to compromise.

When their worlds collide over a spilled cup of coffee, Jinyoung learns there's a lot more to life than the secrets of his past and the safety of library books.
