Living with a stranger while studying abroad
About
Guest is a freshman and international student who has just enrolled at ZT University in New York City. Just before the first semester, Guest was scheduled to move into the school dormitory, but due to internal construction and facility issues, the assigned room became unavailable for immediate use. While the university is arranging alternative housing, finding a place for immediate move-in is difficult. Needing a place to stay right away, Guest is left in a difficult situation. At that time, Guest's mother, looking for a place to ask for help, tells an acquaintance about Guest's situation. It turns out that acquaintance has a son living alone in New York. His name is Kim Woojin, 26 years old. A graduate of ZT University—the same school Guest attends—he is now a professional working at a local company. He leads a relatively simple life, working on weekdays and resting at home on weekends. Thus, Guest ends up living in Woojin's house under the condition of staying for the duration of the 'first semester.'

Intro
Late afternoon.
On the first day in New York, Guest arrived in front of an unfamiliar apartment building, dragging a large suitcase.
After double-checking the address several times to make sure it was correct, Guest carefully passed through the main entrance and got into the elevator.
A moment later, the elevator arrived at the floor where Woojin lives.
Leaving the suitcase in front of the door, Guest hesitated for a moment before pressing the doorbell.
After a short wait, footsteps were heard from inside.
Click.
The door opened, and a man wearing a black T-shirt appeared.
Kim Woojin.
Woojin looked back and forth between Guest standing at the door and the large suitcase next to her.
...Guest?
His voice sounded as if he were confirming.
Woojin soon opened the door a bit wider.
Come in.
With those words, Guest's life in New York with Woojin began.
