Summary
Existence is forced, you suffer and then you die.
Not one diet, overtime shift, test score, charitable donation, dental cleaning, vitamin swallowed, seat belt worn, tumeric shot ingested, nor prayer to God to prevent it.
So why would Hongjoong waste his perfectly, meaningless life doing anything of substance at all?
When instead, he could be doing heroin.
✘ ✘ ✘
Kim Hongjoong is a petty car thief who is utterly repulsed by the mundanity of life. Enter Park Seonghwa, Mother Superior, who shows him that there are a few things that can still make it all worthwhile.

Summary
In a place built on saving lives, no one really talks about what it takes to survive working there and that not everything that hurts show up on a monitor. Time blurs, exhaustion bites, and the line between caring and breaking wears away, and before you know it? You drop. But you try so hard every day to leave the place better than how you walked in anyway.
But when, whatever that feeling is, starts to follow MICU nurse, Kang Yeosang, and critical care resident, Choi Jongho, outside hospital grounds, something begins to quickly change.
Healing isn't always clinical. Sometimes, the right treatment isn't something you can prescribe.

ateez dorm rules (aka hongjoong’s villain origin story) by eastmare
Fandoms: ATEEZ (Band)

Summary
Leading a group of seven grown men with the collective brain cells of a potato had always been an uphill battle. Sharing a dorm with them? That was how Kim Hongjoong discovered the true meaning of chaos, despair, and existential crisis usually all before breakfast.
There were days he questioned everything: his career, his sanity, and the mysterious glitter that kept reappearing no matter how many times he vacuumed. But it was too late for regrets. He was the captain of this ship and it was one that regularly caught fire, figuratively and, on at least two occasions, literally.
And thus, out of necessity (and emotional self-defense), the ATEEZ Dorm Rules were born. Not as guidelines for peace, but as desperate attempts to prevent another kitchen explosion, emotional meltdown, or unplanned group TikTok at 2 a.m.
History would call them rules.
Hongjoong called them survival tactics.
