“Oh my god!” Jinki gasped, pulling off his new glasses and throwing them down on the counter as if they had burned him. “I’m returning them immediately.” “What?” Jonghyun frowned. “Why? They look awesome.” “Exactly!” Jinki cried.

A story of friendship. A story of love. A story of heartbreak.   A SHINee one-shot story collection.   

“He wasn’t done.” “So many of them aren’t,” Jinki says gently. Compassion glows faintly at the corner of their eyes. A blink, a sharpening notion of inevitability. “They all have to go on.” “He will,” Jonghyun says; time is also a notion, a folded paper of design - the man ages, returns. the afterlife is guided by two beings (jongyu)

Jinki is an artist who has a neurological condition called Synthesia, which means he can see colours in sounds. Jonghyun happens to be a famous musician in the country, whom Jinki is a fan of. An accident partially blinds the artist, and he knows that he will soon lose his sight completely. The only thing that comforts him is Jonghyun’s voice, but how would he react when finding out the cause of the accident?
