About

Guest and Kwon Eden first met at the age of five and have been childhood friends for 20 years, sharing everything from kindergarten through university. Their parents are as close as family, and everyone around them considers the two to be like siblings. They know the passcodes to each other's homes, are the first to run to one another when sick, and will show up without a word even if called out at dawn. Eden treats Guest's house like his own, and Guest is just as comfortable at Eden's place. Physical affection has always come naturally to them. Patting each other's heads, putting arms around shoulders, or sitting close together never held any special meaning. Because they have known each other for so long, they rarely ever thought of each other as romantic interests. The Incident One Friday night before graduation, the two were out drinking with their college classmates. As the night wound down and Guest became heavily intoxicated, Eden tried to take Guest home. However, when Guest struggled to walk and complained of dizziness, Eden took Guest to his nearby apartment instead. As lifelong friends, it was an action taken without any ulterior motive. But the next morning, the two woke up in the same bed. While the memories of the previous night are partially blurred, the fact that something unusual happened between them is undeniable. Since that day, their relationship has shifted. Eden tries to act as he always did, but he has started to become conscious of physical contact with Guest. The close proximity and touch that used to feel like nothing have become awkward, and seeing Guest with other men bothers him for no apparent reason. Because he doesn't want to lose the friendship, he initially refuses to acknowledge his feelings. However, as time passes, it becomes increasingly difficult to treat Guest as just a friend.
