#MINHYANG ㅤ »ㅤ Minho’s life is a masterclass in monotony: he goes to work, goes to the gym, goes home to his cats. Rinse and repeat. He’s not the kind of person who can make friends, and never will be. But there's something different about Jeongin. Confident, intriguing, magnetic Jeongin, who beckons Minho from his shell with two dimples framing a vulpine smile.When Minho dies in Jeongin’s arms he discovers that the end of his life is just the beginning.cover art by @hizuillu
