Their relationship is forbidden in every sense of the word. They met when they were young boys, drawn together by simple curiosity. They ended up befriending one another despite knowing where each of them stood in society. It was a tricky thing to hold up, both having to sneak around in Edge just to speak to one another. Still, they took the risk and were happy. Yixing and Jongdae knew about this friendship and worried about their friend's safety but kept it all a secret for the same reason. They were happy that Lu Han was happy but a Hound is a Hound and they refused to meet Minseok themselves. The two were never caught hanging out but one day Minseok said that he wouldn't be coming back to Edge. Lu Han didn't want to believe him and continued looking out for the other boy for weeks. When finally facing the reality that Minseok would not return, Lu Han forced himself to move on. He found new things and people to occupy his time and fill his heart but he never forgot about his special friend.

They didn't meet again until almost fifteen years later and upon their meeting, they realized that things between them could never be the same again.

They both harbor secret affections for each other. Affections that neither are willing to openly acknowledge because of their friendship with Lu Han. Their friendships is already strained because of Yixing 'incident' (which each of the boys blame themselves for) and Jongdae and Yixing don't want to further ostracize Lu Han by entering a relationship with each other. Even after eventually receiving Lu Han's blessing, the two are reluctant, because Yixing is a afraid of being hurt again and Jongdae is afraid of becoming a constant reminder of what happened to him. Even with these complications, the two comfort each other. Jongdae allows his smile to fall around Yixing, who in turn will sometimes speak to him.

These three can easily be considered best friends. Having been together since they were toddlers and sharing similar backgrounds made it easy for them to bond. Like any friends they tend to butt heads at times but they are always quick to make up. However there is a noticeable awkwardness between Lu Han and Yixing, one that appeared after Yixing's 'incident'. They are still friends but Yixing won't speak to Lu Han even though he sometimes speaks to Jongdae. This often leads to sparks of jealousy and loneliness on Lu Han's part along with anger usually directed at Jongdae who tries to take it all in stride. When things between them get heated like this, Jongdae is always there with a smile, taking it upon himself to dispel the tension, no matter how much he gets hurt in the process.

When being banished to Edge, people are "stripped" of their last names. This means that they are no longer allowed to use them. This is done to say that the person has been removed from their family and can no longer be associated with them. It's one of the few laws Eden has over Edge.

Although Edge's residents are forbidden to enter Eden, Eden's residents are free to enter and leave Edge as they please. However, while they have no laws against this, the action is extremely frowned upon and can leave a stain on one's reputation.

It's not uncommon for brothels to get customers from Eden, some Hounds are even regulars.

Speaking of brothels, condoms in Edge are rarities. They are usually only ever found in brothels since workers request that residents from Eden hand them over as payment (also with other necessities like food, fresh water etc). Despite this, there are still times where workers must have sex without them and without the ability to test customers, some are likely to have diseases.

Indulgent things like alcohol and cigarettes no longer exist in Eden but can still be found in Edge. However things like that are still rare and most are (poorly) homemade.
