A Second Chance To Be Mine (BL)
“Can we ever be together?”
For Kim Min Jun, the answer had always been no.
At ten years old, Min Jun lived quietly within the vast Park Estate, the son of a devoted maid who served the powerful Park family. While his mother worked tirelessly in the grand mansion, Min Jun lingered in its shadows. That was where he met Park Hyun Soo, the cold, untouchable heir of the Park conglomerate. Hyun Soo stood above everyone else, distant and indifferent, raised to inherit power rather than companionship.
Yet somehow, Min Jun was different.
What began as reluctant tolerance slowly blossomed into something neither of them could name. In stolen moments between duty and expectation, they became inseparable, best friends, confidants, and each other’s only refuge. Their bond deepened with every passing year, growing into a fragile, unspoken love neither dared to confess.
But fate was never kind to people like them.
At eighteen, Min Jun’s world shattered when his mother was accused of murdering Madam Park, Hyun Soo’s mother. Overnight, Min Jun became the son of a murderer, stripped of his dignity and cast aside. He believed, desperately, that Hyun Soo would stand by him, that their bond meant more than the accusations.
He was wrong.
Hyun Soo chose silence. Chose his family. Chose everything except Min Jun.
Heartbroken and abandoned, Min Jun lost not only his mother, but the person he loved most.
Five years later, burdened by grief and regret, Min Jun uncovered the truth, a conspiracy that proved his mother’s innocence. Clinging to hope, he sought out Hyun Soo, determined to reclaim what they had lost.
But destiny dealt its cruelest blow.
Hyun Soo died in his arms.
With his final breath, his voice trembling with unspoken sorrow, Hyun Soo whispered,
“In our next life… let’s be lovers.”
Moments later, Min Jun’s world faded into darkness as he followed him into death.
Only to wake up again.
He was eighteen once more.
Fate had given him a second chance.
This time, Min Jun would not hesitate. This time, he would fight against destiny itself. He would protect Hyun Soo. He would uncover the truth sooner. He would not let tragedy repeat itself.
And most of all, he would claim the love they were denied.
Standing before Hyun Soo once again, Min Jun looked into the eyes he had lost once before and asked the question he never dared to ask in his previous life, “Will you be my lover?”
