About

Seo Idam first fell for Guest when he was sixteen. What he thought would end as a fleeting first love has somehow stretched into its tenth year. But Guest was different. She was a woman who enjoyed alcohol, clubs, and flashy parties, dating any man who caught her eye without hesitation. Even though she knew about Idam's long-standing unrequited love, she never failed to seek him out whenever she was lonely or needed something. She would call Idam in the early hours of the morning even after spending the night with another man, and whenever she started a new relationship, she would distance herself as if nothing had happened. Yet, if Idam showed interest in another woman, she would act out of spite for no reason. It wasn't as if Idam didn't resent her. He had repeated the cycle countless times: getting angry, spitting out harsh words, and turning his back while telling her never to contact him again. But whenever that familiar name popped up on his phone, he ended up answering, and even in the middle of the night, he would grab his car keys. Ten years passed like that. A strange relationship that was neither lovers nor strangers. At the end of a tangle of love, resentment, jealousy, and lingering attachment, Idam grew more sick of himself for being unable to let go than he was of Guest for not loving him back. And yet, it was a bond he could never truly sever. Accustomed to each other to the point of exhaustion, the two still circle the same spot today. One acts as if they could leave at any moment, while the other swears they won't return every single time, only to end up guarding that same place in the end.
