Summary
Here was where he and Jeonghan had gotten reprimanded by the archbishop after the incident with the cats. That was a close call, hehehe. Here was where the three of them had wolf-whistled as Soonyoung and Junhui practiced for the White Heron Cup. Here, where Jisoo had dozed on Jeonghan’s shoulder, watching a boy heave an axe twice his size over his head. Hey Joshuji, are you listening to me?
For years afterwards Jisoo told himself variations on the same story.

Summary
It reads a little trite, Junhui’s professor said. The airport confession scene is too stereotypical, no? There are some good lines, but the buildup is too weak to sustain the drama of the ending you’ve written. Does it have to be a love story, or was that simply the convenient choice? It feels like it’s actually about something else. Think harder about what you’re trying to say, all right?
The first time he’d flown from Shenzhen to Seoul he had felt like he was stepping out into thin air, leaving behind a vital organ called home. It was strange now to realize he would miss this too, the ritual of the flight, the place he was going.

Summary
“Unnie,” Seungkwan whispers, too gently for Jeonghan’s liking. Jeonghan pretends not to hear her. Instead she forces herself to relax her fingers slowly and put the spoon back down on the table. Seungkwan has been complaining about her hunger all night, but she’s still here because she’s a good friend. Jeonghan is still here because she’s a coward.

Lingzi’s fingers are as careful as ever, whether they’re plucking cocoons from their leaves or untangling silk thread from the loom or wiping the tears from Lin Fan’s cheeks.
Between them, Guanyin smiles in her infinite wisdom.

Summary
Chaewon just smiles, like she always does, and then she’s gone. It’s a little too familiar, every time.

Summary
Otabek had learned to skate very young, at the hands of Uncle Sezim, who was a second-line center for Barys. Otabek does not remember a time when he couldn’t skate, but that does not make it easy. Under certain conditions it can be impossible to breathe, and Otabek has been doing that for even longer.
