Summary
“What are you doing here?”
How is he supposed to explain this? That he's following a breadcrumb trail left behind by versions of Hanbin who haven’t met him yet. He thinks of the Hanbin who cried in his backyard, who didn’t speak Mandarin, who didn’t even recognize him until the last second. Who looked at him like he was a lifeline just before he vanished.
He thinks about all the things Hanbin won’t say, and all the things Zhang Hao has figured out anyway, by paying attention, by collecting every fleeting moment and trying to stitch them into something whole.
He doesn’t know what happens next. But he knows that he wants to find out, and that he’s tired of waiting.
“I’m coming to find you.”
Zhang Hao is just trying to survive college when Hanbin appears in his dorm room, and then vanishes before he can ask who he is. Over and over, Hanbin returns, sometimes older or younger, and always out of order. Zhang Hao may not know what the future holds, but he knows he's slowly starting to fall for the time traveler that keeps coming back to him.

Summary
Ever since Hao came to Korea a few years ago, Hanbin had become his best friend. Now, they're going to spend their last summer of High School together, alone at Hanbin's grandparents' old house. They end up in a tiny village, in the countryside of South Korea, where the unbearable heat burns almost as much as their untold feelings for each other.
This summer, their heartbeats loud in their ears, they're going to learn what they really mean to each other.
_____“Didn’t you like the freedom of school trips? The sights?” Hanbin asked.
“It didn’t really feel like freedom… I think… I think now is more like it. Maybe…”
Hao’s voice faded, quiet and shy in the darkness.
“Maybe you had to be here for me to truly feel free.”
