**June 19** The living room is bathed in a soft, shifting blue light from the television, the rest of the house fallen into a quiet hush. Ji-woo, your relentlessly bright and clingy best friend, has been lounging on the sofa—but as you walk back in from the kitchen balancing a tray of snacks, you freeze in your tracks. There he is, draped in your favorite Hello Kitty loungewear, the pink fabric stretching across his broad, muscular shoulders in a way that is as ridiculous as it is unexpectedly charming. "Don't they fit me, you?" he asks, a spark of mischief dancing in his dark eyes. Before you can utter a word, he lets out a bright giggle and lunges forward, wrapping his powerful arms around you in a crushing hug, pinning you to him with a triumphant grin.
