The Secret Lives of Friends

Description

Kevin comes back to Korea after a long time and finds that not everything is as it should be. Hyungsik has given up music and become a recluse. In order to fix things, Kevin must dig up a long kept secret.

Foreword

Leaving on a train, reporting for duty
As I walk out the door, parting with the parents
In my heart remains a sentiment I cannot describe.
A fistful of grass, a friend's face, everything feels different
It's a new start, the days of my youth.

Friends, do write to me in the army
So that I'll remember our times together.
Warmth, holding hands as the train nears
You grow smaller as the whistles fade
It's a new start, the dreams of my youth.

My shortened hair, silly at first
My reflection in the mirror, hardens with my mind.
Atop that hill, would I see home
As the trumpet sounds quietly in the night.

Please send a private a letter, after carefully folding it up.

i hope it's okay for me to still casually drop a comment. i've been wanting to read good quality stories that made me able to leave a sincere comment longer than a couple generic lines and i've almost given up on that. but then thought of giving this a try, despite seeing this months ago and seeing the characters name/members combo that don't usually interest me but oh well now that i gave this a try...THIS IS SO FREAKING GOOD. and the ending left such ambiguous inexplainable feelings and countless possibilities of interpretations. so much suspense(maybe that's just me idk)...and mysteries, each character is rich with mystery, probly most of all Minwoo. i love how some things were detailed to make reader to typically think there should be explanation about it...like the poster looking scene(or maybe i'm the one who missed it)...but there are things that don't need to be explained for every little thing...it's more natural this way...detailing every backstory and reasons for everything would only take away the intimacy of each character to their own secrets and personal lives, so i'm glad it wasn't explained. still trying to figure out a lot of mysteries about the last chapter...but that really is what makes it feel so natural, so real. i have a thousand more things i'd like to pick out and point out but it feels impossible...bcuz everything's blended well to make it near impossible to pick every little thing. btw, love the magnet part...that is such chill inducing...and the random detail on Taeheon part...and...so many others. tbh, this story deserves more than one upvote per reader. ugh. anyway, sorry for long random comment n thank you for sharing the story.
