Ko Woo Rim

How To Fall In Love With Eyes

Yeon-Jun is a dedicated barista at a quaint cafe operated by Sung-Hoon Cha, the son of the man who once saved Yeon-Jun's life. He grapples with selective mutism, a condition that emerged after the traumatic experience of witnessing his parents' tragic death. Although the details of his past have faded from his memory, his body retains the imprint of those painful events. It was during this darkest chapter of his life that Sung-Hoon's father discovered him alone and heartbroken, offering him shelter and a semblance of safety. Despite never having envisioned a future as a barista, Yeon-Jun made a solemn promise to Sung-Hoon's father on his deathbed—to forever stand by his side. This vow compelled Yeon-Jun to forsake his own aspirations and instead pursue a life marked by unrelenting work and perpetual anxiety. Conversely, Woo-San Kim is the affluent CEO of K&L Entertainment, a company steeped in legacy as he belongs to an illustrious lineage of chaebols, being an eighth-generation heir poised to inherit substantial assets from his grandfather. Like Yeon-Jun, Woo-San has also faced the grief of losing both parents to illness, which has led to a strained relationship with his controlling grandfather. The elder Kim holds steadfast to his authority, adamantly refusing to relinquish the company, opting instead to orchestrate a competition among Woo-San, his half-brother, and his cousin for the right to inherit the family fortune. Throughout his childhood, Woo-San has been accompanied by Hee-Jun Go, a devoted friend and secretary who was rescued by Woo-San's father. Hee-Jun, having been separated from his own family at a young age, appreciates the depth of loyalty and friendship. In a heartfelt gesture, Woo-San offers to help Hee-Jun locate his long-lost brother, during which he finds himself inexplicably drawn to Yeon-Jun at the café, captivated by the quiet strength and resilience hidden beneath Yeon-Jun's struggles. However, when Woo-San’s grandfather learns of his burgeoning feelings for Yeon-Jun, he delivers a menacing ultimatum: marry someone of his grandfather's choosing or face disinheritance. Feeling cornered with little left to lose, Woo-San contemplates capitulating to the marriage arrangement, all the while suspecting that his grandfather is orchestrating a more sinister plot that preys on Woo-San's unresolved trauma, compelling him to wrestle for his inheritance. As tensions rise within this power dynamic, Woo-San feels an undeniable connection to Yeon-Jun, yet finds that Yeon-Jun’s condition renders him unable to express his own feelings. Desperate to flee the confines of the forced marriage, Woo-San resolves to turn his grandfather's manipulative tactics against him. In this quest for autonomy, he uncovers unsettling truths that extend far beyond his own life, jeopardizing not only his future but also deeply affecting Hee-Jun, Sung-Hoon, and even his grandfather himself. Faced with this newfound knowledge—one he wishes he could unlearn—Woo-San must grapple with difficult decisions. Will he risk exposing his own vulnerabilities to protect Yeon-Jun? Will he succumb to his grandfather’s wishes to secure his inheritance, or will he forge a path driven by empathy and commitment to those who have become family to him? The weight of these revelations threatens to alter the course of their lives forever. Author's Note: I apologize if this gets a delayed update. My country decided to randomly go to war this Tuesday and I live near the border. So, yeah.

First Impact: From The Rim

*Cover art not mine* Raiden has spent his entire life trapped in Cicada's South Rim, running packages for the Squadron gang just to survive in the city's most dangerous district. With nothing but a faded childhood hoodie and an unbreakable desire for freedom, he's resigned himself to a life of poverty and violence—until the day the sky tears open. When a comet of unknown origin collides with Earth in an event known as the First Impact, the world stops. Time freezes. Reality bends. And when it resumes, seventy percent of humanity awakens with supernatural abilities tied to the strength of their deepest desires. But Raiden is different. His yearning for freedom—the most powerful desire on the planet—marks him as one of the Crowned, an elite few whose abilities transcend normal limits. Armed with devastating light manipulation powers that make him nearly godlike, he finally has the strength to break free from the chains that have bound him his entire life. As the world descends into chaos and new power structures emerge from the ashes of the old, Raiden must navigate a landscape where strength determines survival and the weak are crushed underfoot. The same freedom he's craved may come at a cost he never imagined—because in a world where desire shapes reality, getting everything you want might destroy everything you once were. Some prisons are built from poverty and circumstance. Others are built from power itself. And sometimes, the greatest trap is finally getting what you've always wanted.

Oshi no ko: Akari Hayaki (FanFiction)

Ai Hoshino, born as an intelligent idol... was murdered. I opened my eyes... "[What is this? W-wait don't tell me...]" Yes, I got reborn to a new life! My mom is just like me, she got pregnant at a young age and gave birth to me when she was 16. She is very cool, a great singer, but full of secrets too. Her name is Akari, which means light. And yes, this story isn't really all about me, but how my mom is able to live her life with her secret child. But though I am curious how my twins are living right now, I can't believe that me and my mom's life, would join into their life too. I just hope they don't caught on to me and my mom's secret! I am no longer Ai Hoshino, but now Ai Hayaki! And this is the life of me and my super duper awesome mom! This is a fanfiction of the anime Oshi no ko! Wednesday or Saturday! (There's a chance I will post 2 chapters a week, but if I don't post on Wednesday, it means ill post on Saturday!) Want to thank you in advance for those who will read! I recommend you guys watch Oshi no ko to understand, but if not, here is a short summary!(but its okay if not since ill add a bit of backstory of each that's connected to the original) Spoiler Alert! Ai Hoshino is an idol who gave birth to twins, Aqua and Ruby, but she needs to keep it a secret so that her fame won't drop and that she can continue being an idol. She loves her children so much but sadly got stabbed in front of her son aqua(Btw the twins were her fans in their past life but when they died, they reincarnated into her babies). So Ai then died, and aqua has a goal to find his father(which is the killer) by joining acting(Aqua is really good at acting), while Ruby is doing idol stuff to become like her mom, Ai. A lot of things happened and I do recommend to watch the anime or read the manga! But I decided to let my story take place during the time when Aqua is making the movie for revenge, but added a little storyline where he is trying to catch his father which I made it up hehe. (I will add that storyline somewhere in the future chapters hehe) Hope you enjoy my story, Peace. Edit: I just realized that I accidentally included this for the spirity awards HAHAHHAHA! That's why I couldn't find anime tags and it isn't part of the fanfic. Hope people find this novel and that this is a fanfic... :D (I might upload an original novel of my own for the awards, hope you guys will like it. Might post it next month tho :D) I made a Twitter account you can follow named- @abe_writes - you can follow if you want :D '_'

Sa mga Tahimik na Taon ng Aking Kasal

Pitong taon matapos maging asawa ni Pearson na pipi at bingi, isang aksidente sa kotse ang nagbalik ng aking pandinig. Tiniis ko ang sakit ng bakal na tumagos sa aking balat at tumawag kay Pearson sa pamamagitan ng video call. Bago ako nakapagsalita, narinig ko ang boses ng aking matalik na kaibigan: "Pearson, maaari mo ba akong samahan at ang aking anak ngayong gabi?" Sinabi sa akin ni Pearson nang walang pakialam na hindi siya makakauwi dahil sa trabaho, ngunit sabay na lumingon at sumagot sa kanya: "Oo naman!" Naramdaman ko ang matinding sakit sa aking puson at dumaloy ang makapal na pulang dugo sa pagitan ng aking mga hita. Nagsenyas ako sa kanya nang may pagkataranta at nagsalita nang hindi maayos: "Iligtas mo ang bata!" Ngunit hindi pinansin ni Pearson ang aking pagkataranta at ibinaba ang telepono. Nang sinubukan kong tumawag muli, nalaman ko na hinarang niya ako. Napilitan akong panoorin ang walong buwang sanggol na mamatay sa aking sinapupunan. Sa sandaling iyon, nagpadala ang aking matalik na kaibigan ng video nila ni Pearson na nagdiriwang ng kaarawan ng kanyang tatlong taong gulang na anak. Sa video, matamis na tinawag ng bata si Pearson na "Tatay". Nanlamig ang buong katawan ko, tiniis ang sakit na nagdudurog ng puso, hinila ang isang binti mula sa kotse, at gumapang palabas. Sa sandaling iyon, sumabog ang kotse. Tinignan ko ang nagngangalit na apoy, hinubad ang aking singsing at itinapon ito sa apoy. Pagkatapos, nagpadala ako ng mensahe sa aking mga magulang na matagal ko nang hindi nakakausap: "Inay at Itay, pumapayag na akong pumunta sa ibang bansa para sa rehabilitasyon at pamunuan ang Sterling Group."
