The good news is, we’re halfway through! The bad news is, we’re only halfway through.

Account of Strange Incidents, Year of Great Famine: Two men of the palace disappeared amid a riot. Witnesses spoke of unnatural light and smoke without fire.

Before they were Saja Boys, they were just Min-su and Dae-bi. A scholar with too much heart, a soldier with too much strength. Shaped by King Jeongjo’s reign, broken by Sunjo’s famine, they found each other in the cracks of a collapsing world.

This is the story of how Romance and Abby loved each other, how they bargained everything away, how they learned that some promises are worse than parting.

Chapters: 2/22 Fandom: KPop Demon Hunters (2025) Rating: Teen And Up Audiences Warnings: Graphic Depictions Of Violence, Major Character Death Relationships: Abby/Romance (KPop Demon Hunters) Characters: Abby (KPop Demon Hunters), Romance (KPop Demon Hunters), Original supporting cast, Gwi-Ma (KPop Demon Hunters) Additional Tags: Prequel, Backstory, Yi Joseon Dynasty (1392-1897), Historical Fantasy, First Love, Slow Burn, Unreliable Narrator, eventual tragedy, Violence, Grief, doomed from the start, i need you guys to understand that when I say slow burn I mean they don't think they love each other until halfway through, other saja boys cameos later Summary:

It began with a fallen charm and a boy’s laughter in the crowd. It ended in blood and fire, with two souls bartered away. Between those points, there was love - bright, desperate, and doomed from the start.

This is the record of Romance and Abby, and it was always going to end in tragedy.
