This is All That I Can Say

Infinite win first again. And again. Each performance effortlessly sweeps the music shows, and then carries its momentum through the following weeks.

The fanclub expands, concerts are sold out, awards are won. The years pass.

Slowly Hoya had learned to stop using those units to measure their success. Each one would be new and deliriously exciting when first introduced, and then have less impact the next time, and then fade and fade into routine. First places, fans, and awards just happened to be things that lay in the path to something else, something greater…

Hoya knows that they’ll get there, to that ambiguous place where excitement and memory never fade. He’s guessing that they’ll be at the top of the international charts in… maybe 3 years. All they have to do is keep going, keep practicing.

Dongwoo still writes in his diary every night. Hoya’s not sure what he writes. In his opinion, there’s been nothing to write home about yet. Hoya hasn’t sent even a card home in years.

Chapter 25: Whenever I read a great story; I get a feeling of thanking the authour. But this was so REAL. I can say I felt every words and sentences. I wondered while reading "Has this authour experienced such a situation? This is so REAL." I don't know how to thank you but I will really be greatful if you continue writing and share the reasult of your skillful writng with us. Should I read it again? And again? I wish I could write as you. I think I've forgotten how to write. Thank you and hope you and all the talented authours don't hesitate to share their emotions with us.

I'm very grateful you decided to share your story with us. I am very picky with fanfics and style, so when I found yours I was very very happy to get such a good story from my favourite pairing. I loved everything about it, from -obviously- how you portrayed Hoya and Dongwoo's friendship, to its progression, the narration, the metaphors and your writing style in general. It was very novelesque and, even though it has quite a good number of chapters, I wish it were longer. That's the feeling when you deeply enjoy what you're reading, right? You want more. So thank you again, and I hope this beautiful story may wake up your writing senses again and you will give us more Yadong in the future. Best of luck for your remaining years at college. It's a tiring experience but worth it, try to enjoy your time there as much as possible! :)

Chapter 25: I've never cried for a story before, but I actually had to take breaks halfway through the last two chapter just so I could see straight. This story is amazing and so very well written. Even though I knew how it was going to end, it still hurt. You were able to bring me in to the story and that is a very hard thing to do. I just want to say thank you. Thank you for writing this. It is by far one of my favorite stories I have read in the past few years.

Chapter 24: Okay, I can't believe this, I wrote two comments in a day on the same story. Author-nim, all I can say is thank you. Thank you for making me tear up in the morning. I actually stumble upon this story last night and straight up reading half way through it. I don't even know what to write anymore since I'm still emotional over this story, but one thing for sure, you wrap it up pretty nicely.

Thank you

I'm blown away! Too many emotions to comprehend. I seriously love this kind of real life situation story but the fact that it's so sad really conflicts with my excitement on reading this. This is beautifully made, I can't wait for future updates. >w<

I really like your writing style. The way you describe everything makes me picture it and I feel as if I'm watching it rather than reading it. I really hope you write more stories and/or go in to writing professionally. This story is amazing so far.
