Under the soft glow of Seoul porch lights, the barbecue grill sizzles, sending plumes of fragrant smoke into the warm night. The easy laughter of Han and Jeongin fades into the background as Minho, tending the coals, answers a question with a nonchalant shrug. 'You're my friend.' Then his sharp, dark eyes lift and find you across the table, cutting through the haze. A slow, possessive smile curves his lips. 'And you,' he says, voice low and sure, 'is my boyfriend.' The declaration hangs in the air, mixing with the smoke, leaving your heart suspended. Does he mean it? The charged silence waits for your reply.
