Code of Love

Description

In a dystopian world with little resources and a biased system,
Lee Jihoon (19) found himself to be struggling in living his life to the fullest, let alone survive.
He hated the fact that his wrist was engraved with a barcode of an 'Indigent'.
Being at the bottom of such messed up social hierarchy,  Jihoon could not help but loath the 'Opulents'.
Especially after what had happened to both him and his stepbrother, Lee Seokmin. 
However, what would happen when 'fate' decided to play a little game with him?
Little did Jihoon know, found himself to be gradually falling for Choi Seungcheol (20);
a man originated from that one group Jihoon swore he would hate forever.

 

 

Thanks to the ever talented and wonderful @17!Ginko

 


BARCODE TATTOED WRIST

Each of them is tattoed with barcodes of specific serial numbers that categorise them
into social groups they are belonged in. These barcodes are also used when
making purchases by simply scanning their wrists whenever a transaction is involved.
In this world, money is no longer usable/practiced, thus barcodes have become a universal currency. 
These barcodes also hold information that the government has total access to
(including one's name, status, whereabouts and past events).

Chapter 19: Chapter 15: hi! even though some of this is not related to the fic, i feel like i need to tell you.

i found jicheol first through aff and ended up reading an ongoing fic in 2016. that's how i discovered my new ship. i ended up going through the tag on aff. i started reading all the jicheol fics i could find at that time. that's how i found this fic, too. reading the story and i thought it was a really new concept to me as i had never read something with a 'barcode' concept before.

and why i want to tell you this is because i didn't even know how they looked when i first read their fic. after i tried to search jicheol gifs on tumblr, i slipped into the jicheol life really hard. your amazing gifs made me fell in love with jicheol, of how their moments are rare but very heartwarming... ever since predebut they've been going at it.

thank you for making me a jicheol shipper. i'm really thankful that i get to discover this amazing friendship/relationship.

also, i'm really happy you decided to continue this fic till the end. it's one of my favorite from back in the days when i just discovered jicheol and i hope i can see the ending that they deserve after all the pain they have to go through...

i suggested posting the fic on ao3 to ranasungmin too on twitter. i think due to time... people kinda grew out of aff? i mostly see more updates and active readers/writers on ao3 now. i really hope you will post there too since i feel like this story needs to be read by all the jicheol shippers and of course, it deserves all the love it can get.

thank you for wanting to continue this. despite everything else you mentioned, i still love this fic a lot.

<3
