COURSED DEVOTION ( Taekook)

Before the shrine, before the curse, before everything fell apart—
there was just us.
Two boys. A camera. And something dangerously close to love.

When people ask how Jungkook and I met, I usually say something like,
kim taehyung
“Oh, college project. Paranormal studies class.”

But the truth?

I saw him before he ever saw me.
He was crouched under a cherry blossom tree with a beat-up Canon camera, filming a crow pecking at a soda can like it was the most fascinating thing in the world. His brows were scrunched in concentration, lips pursed, sleeves rolled up.
He looked like someone trying to capture the soul of the world—frame by frame.
I didn’t believe in ghosts until I met him.
Not the kind that haunt you in forests… but the kind that linger in your thoughts long after you’ve walked away.
We became friends over broken cameras and horror film marathons. He called it “research.” I called it an excuse to be near him.
Eventually, we started our YouTube channel Beyond Shadows—just two bored students chasing urban legends and filming reaction content. But the more time we spent together, the more real it became. The more I fell.
Not just for the mystery,
For him.
For the way he’d laugh in graveyards and talk to spirits like old friends.
For the way his fingers trembled after holding my hand for too long.
For the way he never noticed how I always walked behind him—afraid something would try to take him first.
But Jungkook never saw it.
Or maybe he did, and chose not to.
