Summary
An ache in his chest. Gi-hun, this strange yet kind-hearted man who looks at him like he hasn’t done the unforgivable, somehow has not only carved out a peaceful haven full of flowers and light in the middle of the chaotic city of Seoul– but has somehow carved a place inside In-ho too. Taken root somewhere deep inside of him without asking, without force. Just did so and simply stayed there. Like it was where he belonged all along.
He doesn’t know what to do with this. How to hold feelings so gentle without breaking them.
Regardless, a feeling blooms in his chest. Familiar– he knows this feeling but has not felt for a long time. Warmth. It scares him. It comforts him. The roots fill cracks inside him that had long gone numb.
In-ho survives the 2015 games and meets Gi-hun in his flower shop two years later. Hanahaki/florist au

Summary
In-ho never considered himself a good man.
He saw the world as it was. This was necessary in his job as a police officer. If he had hidden behind naive thoughts and the belief that there was good in everyone, he wouldn't have made it this far.
He saw the world in all its glory. Humanity at its lowest point, at the very edge from which there was no turning back.
In-ho crossed that line.
Because these games were far worse than he could have ever imagined.
Now only a shell remains of his list. Nothing seems to belong to him anymore. He has failed as the brother, son, husband, and father he never became.
If life is no longer his, it will be filled with hatred. Hatred is the only thing he can call his own. He will turn it into a weapon he will aim at this man.
The white mask of the Frontman will fall at his feet, even if he has to die standing.
Revenge is not a choice.
It is a need.
___
Maybe we are just born cursed by fate.
There has to be someone to blame.
Isn't that right, dad?

Summary
He couldn't believe it — ten minutes ago, he was convinced that In-ho had changed universities, and now he was stuck with him for the entire semester. It had to be a joke.
“Okay,” Jung-bae muttered. “I know the situation is unpleasant, but no one is forcing you two to be friends. Think of it as... an experiment. Because it is an experiment.”
Gi-hun thought he could avoid In-ho forever. Turns out, fate, an anonymous chat, and a methodology project had other plans — and maybe a few feelings he wasn’t ready to admit.

Summary
Gihun won his first game and started his relentless efforts to trackdown The Frontman and the games, along with his friends/allies. However, upon discovering his motel covered in cameras watching his every move and threats coming in, he ran. Using a fake identity and living off the grid he had hoped he would be safe and for over a year he was. That was until The Frontman found him and began to send him a rose and handwritten letters. Gihun runs once again, only starting a game of cat and mouse. A game that the Frontman himself is more than ready for.

Summary
After being let go from his previous job as a mechanic, Gi-hun struggles to find work.
Desperate for a fresh start, and something less physically demanding, he applies for a range of jobs, somehow landing an office position as a personal assistant and secretary within SQD Financial Group.
He quickly makes friends in the office, especially when Cho Sang-woo takes him under his wing, helping him settle in.
What Gi-hun doesn’t realise is that Sang-woo is already crushing on him hard.
Office life proves far more complicated than expected when his boss, Hwang In-ho, seems determined to criticise his every move.
What Gi-hun never expected, however, was that Hwang In-ho has a secret he’s desperately struggling to keep to himself…
