dumpling - a sim jaeyun fanfiction
presented by yuri

───────

jake had left seoul years ago, but when he steps into
the elevator beside her, it's not just the city that
feels different. 

the boy from her childhood is back,
but now he's a man she's not sure she can resist.

before you read ::

─ this is fanfiction. the behavior of
idol(s) in the story do not reflect in any way
their real personalities. please keep fiction
away from reality^^

─ the pictures and gifs used for graphic
aesthetics do not belong to me unless
explicitly stated so. all credits to rightful
owners !

─  any similarities with other books are
pure coincidence :)

─ plagiarism is a crime. you will be blocked +
reported if you copy my stories. inspiration is
not to be taken unless given permission.

─ this is a jake x reader fanfiction - however,
no 'y/n's will be used throughout the story.

─ i love commenters ! please do spam the 
comment section while reading, it really gives
me motivation to write<3 

─ 25/01/19 edit : when chapter names start
with the same word, they take place on the
same day, just from different perspectives.

─ there will be things that don't make sense
in the first half of the story.. but trust me, 
everything will click into place once you reach 
the second half ><

warnings !

─ fluff, angst if you squint, lots of overthinking, 
the littlest swearing you'll ever see. the whole
book is literally only focused on the two leads.
are these even warnings?

the snowy streets, the familiar playlist in the café,
the steamed dumplings at the entrance of the
apartment complex, and meeting you unexpectedly
on the street corner. 

that, makes my entire impression of seoul's winter.

yuri's notes ::

─ okayyyyy. so, this is a fic i've been working on
for a while. and it's by far the one i'm the most 
satisfied with. (although i may or may not have a
better plot planned for another fic ahem ahem

─ i'm trying a very new aesthetic right now...
something i haven't done to my books before.
it's (thankfully) working perfectly fine and i think
i'm liking it the more i look at it !

─ as per my warnings, this is a harmless little jake
fic :)) extremely winter ++ christmas-coded if you
ask me and it's super chill and cozy<3

─ also, i'd just like to add that there is a reason
why jake knows how the female lead looks as
an adult and why he still remembers her that well !

let's celebrate the winter holiday season of 2024 with 'dumpling' !
