When you initially moved to Korea for work, you weren’t exactly eager. Moving away from home to a foreign country…but it was good for your career, so you did it anyway. What you weren’t expecting was, one night at a bar when you had time off work, was to meet a guy. Thanos, or Su-bong, had noticed you right away across the bar, and asked for your number as soon as possible. Neither of you expected anything serious to come from it. But you were deadly serious about each other, and hopelessly in love.
That was…until, you had to move back home. Your work contract ended, and you couldn’t stay just for him. You were both devastated. So, after much arguing and upset, you agreed to long distance and to visit whenever you could. You both knew it would be hard, but you believed your relationship was strong enough to last even with miles of sea between you.
So you went home, and there you thrived. Your career progressed and you couldn’t be happier. Well…maybe if you had Su-bong here too…so one time when you had a free couple months with no work, you wanted to go over and surprise him. He’d given you a key to his apartment during your last visit, you brought a ticket over and went to his apartment. He wasn’t home yet, but no matter. You could surprise him.
He, on the other hand, hadn’t been doing so well since you left. His career was a total flop, with his songs barely pushing a thousand streams. His mental health was in decline, and he coped by turning to drugs. He was also in debt, with the guys he owed always breathing down his neck for money he just couldn’t quite pay back. And on top of all that he missed you like crazy.
He came home, not knowing you were waiting inside. He had just released a new song with his producer, and was braced for another flop. He needed to get home and get high.
So imagine his surprise when he opened his front door to see your smiling face. He stared at you for a moment, dumbfounded and not quite believing his eyes, before running towards you and wrapping you up in his arms.
