a boy’s love is a product of hunger and light

changjin college au drabble

the second time changbin falls in love with hyunjin, hyunjin is sitting in the middle of the grass field beside the chemistry building, in the shade of an aspen tree, flipping through a thesaurus of a textbook. the air runs piano fingers through his hair, the sun kisses poetry into the bow of his lips— and he’s the most beautiful thing changbin’s ever seen.

the third time, there's hyunjin, barefoot, cheeks flushed, in nothing but an oversized v-neck cashmere sweater, sleeves up to his fingertips, the moon rising from the valley of his neck, lashes constructing the loveliest shadows on his cheekbones. hair pooling at his collarbones like sinking fishnets, legs folded to his chest, napping quietly on the arm of an old couch, he stirs only to curl up more tightly.

the fourth time, there's hyunjin leaning against a teak countertop, wearing one of changbin’s large dress shirts, sleeves rolled up to his elbows, skin weaved from moonflowers and the shiniest silk, knobbly long legs crossed, early morning, sunlight dusting his hair. there’s a hardback novel pressed open beneath his hands, and he’s humming, blooming, coming alive in the shades of daybreak, changbin’s lips on his neck.

but the very first time changbin falls in love with hyunjin, all in one breath, one second, hyunjin doesn't see him. hyunjin doesn't know him.

and it's the same the fifth and the last time changbin falls in love with hyunjin, breathless, heart frantic like a rabbit; when hyunjin’s walking down the snow-powdered streets in december, wearing a wedding tux, an engagement ring heavy in his pocket, eyes still red and swollen, something ugly and broken in the curl of his spine, a name on his lips half-chewed half-swallowed. changbin takes one look at him and falls in love so hard his heart breaks, slits him from the inside and leaves him hemorrhaging on the side walk, bleeding blues and purples. flooding the street. but hyunjin doesn't see him, and hyunjin will never see him. because hyunjin is the kind of guy who only angels can learn to love. the kind of guy who licks the sky and sucks on stars. a kiss from him and the whole world goes crazy.

hyunjin was the guy who stole changbin’s heart, and who died without ever having known he had it in his hands, beating like an ocean sun.

[apas-95]

What's the best train movie?

I was going to say this one soviet film set in WW2 about a supply train set for the front and its crew trying to keep the train running in spite of bombing, track repairs by engineering battalions, enemy reconnaissance troops etc but then I remembered I dreamt it. I guess Battle of Lake Changjin has a train segment... Most train-specific movies I can think of aren't that good, I think.

Does what I imagine when I look at this picture count as a movie?

'Oppenheimer, the phenomenally successful and critically acclaimed dramatic thriller from Christopher Nolan, has achieved a new record milestone in US theatrical history, as it is poised surpass 2016's Sing to become the highest-grossing domestic movie of all time to never reach the top spot at the box office. One can argue that Oppenheimer may not have reached that achievement, or even the total domestic gross that it did, were it not for the accompanying Barbie factor alongside it, but nonetheless, the film has now hit the target by grossing over $270 million in four weeks of release.

Sing had previously seen outstanding commercial success when it was released, but it was hit by a double whammy when in theaters. Firstly, it came up against Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, which ultimately ended up grossing $534.9 million domestically, obviously taking the number one spot against Sing. Then, as the film showed good legs, it was then prevented from reaching number one again by Hidden Figures, the sleeper hit about the mathematicians behind the first moon landing. However, try not to feel too bad for Sing—it did end up with $634.2 million worldwide, a number which Oppenheimer will also now surpass.

Oppenheimer does have quite a bit of work to do to take the top spot in the "never hit number one" race worldwide. The film needs to gross over $902,548,476 to overtake The Battle at Lake Changjin, a Chinese film that only saw a limited release in the US and Canada. It will also have company in the top ten, however, by another Nolan film in the form of Interstellar, which opened in second place in 2014 against Disney's Big Hero 6, although ironically Interstellar, as with many Nolan films, legged out and the sci-fi epic ended up outgrossing Baymax and Hiro by $20 million worldwide.

Given its popularity in premium large format theaters, Oppenheimer will undoubtedly continue to bring in money as IMAX screens remain sold out for weeks to come, with the film capturing the imagination of the public in ways that were surely unforeseen by Nolan and his studio, Universal, prior to the film's release. However, for a cinephile like the Brit auteur, the satisfaction must be overwhelming, and a statistic like being top of the box office will never truly matter to him as long as his film has been seen by as many movie lovers as possible.'

To be fair, there's very little that the investigation hasn't already revealed to the characters themselves.

Based on evidence, there was already proof that Kang Jinmook sought to kill Yuyeon in the first place, precisely because of his sick and perverse modus operandi: cutting off all ten of the victim's fingers and keeping them as his trophy.

From the moment Dongsik discovered Yuyeon's body in the wall of his basement and held her hands, there was undeniable proof of Jinmook's handiwork.

As to why Yuyeon was out there in the deer farm in the first place, it's also already known that it's Jeongje who's the one who called her out and then chased after her. Both actions unfortunately led to her demise either way: the fact that she went out late at night to meet him, which then led to the unfortunate timing of her witnessing Juseon's murder, and the fact that Jeongje run over her in a drunken and medicated state, both of which were his own doing.

This would have already been known by Dongsik, who stole and perused her case files, and later on by the police and the courts, after Jeongje's full confession of everything that happened that night.

If we're going to base it strictly on detail, perhaps the only thing that would've been left unknown to anyone is the fact that Yuyeon witnessed Juseon's murder, which is why Jinmook went after her in the first place.

Otherwise, Jinmook (by virtue perhaps of being too close to the Lee family) wouldn't have had any reason to harm her, given that she wasn't the usual profile of his victims—those he perceived to be "sexually promiscuous":

The prostitutes in Busan (including Lee Geumhwa and Jinmook's own wife Yoon Mihye), Bang Juseon (in the script book she had the background of flirting with an older businessman), Han Jeongim (Yoo Jaeyi's mother, whom Jinmook saw already dating another man shortly after her husband has died), and Kang Minjeong (who was rumored to be a club girl).

Lee Yuyeon, in Jinmook's twisted perception, didn't fit that profile at all. And police investigators would've noted this outlier in the pattern too, but would not have had the hard evidence to prove why.

Other than this specific detail of Yuyeon being a witness to Juseon's murder as the reason why Jinmook sought to kill her in the first place, everything else is already known to the police:

Why she went out to the deer farm and whom she met there, how she was killed and who killed her, and who buried her body.

Lee Yuyeon was the one victim in the entire series who was killed by all three perpetrators: Kang Jinmook, Han Kihwan, and Park Jeongje.

(PS: I also just remembered that Jinmook made a mocking retelling of all his murders—including the night of Juseon's and Yuyeon's deaths—which he described in gory detail to both Dongsik and Joowon, and then later on recanted as just part of his "imagination", so perhaps indirectly he had also described his hand in Yuyeon's death and why she had to be killed.)

(PPS: Also just remembered that for the rest of the sequence of events of that night, Lee Changjin and Do Haewon eventually made each of their own confessions throwing each other under the bus along with Han Kihwan, which was how a warrant for Han Kihwan’s arrest was sent out in the first place.)

I don't think it's ever brought up in Beyond Evil how no one ever learns exactly what happened the night Yuyeon died.

Sure, Dongsik and Juwon uncover that it was actually Han Gihwan's accident first, then Jeongje's, then Kang Jinmook got his hands on her body and buried her in the basement wall. BUT. No one ever finds out that Yuyeon witnessed Bang Juseon's murder. No one ever finds out that had Yuyeon not been able to run away, she really would have been killed by Kang Jinmook.

No one finds out that the actual succession of events that night was: one, Lee Yuyeon leaves the deer farm, two, Lee Yuyeon witnesses Bang Juseon's murder, three, Lee Yuyeon is rendered unconscious by Kang Jinmook and loaded in his van with Bang Juseon (likely with the intention of killing her too), four, Lee Yuyeon running away, five, Yuyeon seeing headlights and calling for help after escaping from a killer, six, Han Gihwan running Yuyeon over, seven, Lee Changjin leaving her body on the road, eight, Park Jeongje running over Lee Yuyeon, nine, Do Haewon and Lee Changjin being brought into the scene, and ten, Kang Jinmook taking Yuyeon's body and eventually burying it in the basement wall.

No one finds out, because every single one of the only three people who knew about that part of that night (Bang Juseon, barely, Lee Yuyeon, and Kang Jinmook) ended up dead without saying anything.

Now I'm curious where the story might have gone if they decided to have the characters ask why Yuyeon was facing the car when she was run over. If they might find out exactly what happened to her that night or not. And how.

As it stands though, the way the story was executed in the drama was extremely well done already, so maybe this is the kind of thing best left for fanfiction to explore. And maybe even for an essay to analyze why it's better (or not) for them to have left the exact events of that night a mystery to the characters.

Changbin: Sorry, I have a boyfriend

Hyunjin: That's cool, but I thought you might need a husband. Here's my number.

Changbin, blushing: o-oh

Felix: *attacks Hyunjin* BITCH ISTG STAY AWAY FROM MY MAN-

[peachy-beomie]

Hyunjin: Is that my shirt?

Changbin, wearing a shirt that goes down to his knees: ...no

[minhover]

Changbin: I saw you hanging out with hyunjin the other day.

Felix: changbin, it's not what you think!

Changbin: I won't hesitate, bitch.

[wowchangbin]

Changbin: Don't talk down to me

Hyunjin: Well i could hardly talk up to you. You're too short

[echo-rambles]

wait how is changjin romantic and not Hyunlix??

Like politely asking

Just curious

it might be romantic for some people!! I've just never personally viewed their dynamic as romantic. 🤷

I ship changjin romantically because I just love the way they interact and I love the contrasts in their relationship. something about it just really speaks to me and I love imagining it as romantic.

hyunlix has just always felt like best friends to me. incredibly queer, affectionate best friends absolutely, but I've just never gotten romantic vibes from their dynamic. I know so many people ship them romantically which is perfectly fine, I just don't see it. I truly can't explain more than that because it's truly just based on vibes for me dfhkgkfd

December 18th (5:32 PM)

This was a tradition in your family... it always looked so beautiful and you were incredibly happy that Changbin and Hyunjin were there to help.

Every year when Christmas came around, since you were a little girl, you've always helped put together a little Christmas village.

This year it was your job, so you called in two reinforcements to help you put it together.

Changbin was looking at the little houses, while Hyunjin was helping you glue the cotton snow onto the base.

"Changbin Hyung! You finally found a house big enough for you!" Hyunjin laughed.

Changbin gave him a very unamused look, you couldn't help but laugh.

"Okay stop teasing Changbin..." you laughed a little.

"Thank you!" He sighed.

"I mean its not his fault he's short"

"Yeah.. hey!" You and Hyunjin both started laughing.

"You wouldn't be laughing if I glued your hands together!" He yelled as he held up the hot glue gun.

"Drop the weapon!" You shouted as you pointed towards him.

He sat down the glue gun and you grabbed it quickly.

"Okay help me with the rest of this village!" You all worked together to glue down all the pieces.

Finally the little village was complete.

"Thanks guys!" You smiled as you hugged them both.

Hyunjin kept holding in a snicker, you and Changbin looked over at him.

"Can I make one more short joke"

"No!" You said in unison

It was dead quiet and you were just about walk away when Hyunjin blurted out "Say something to your people Binnie!"

"You're dead!" He yelled as he chased him around your house.
