Carrying the regrets of her past life, Seoyun returns to the past to save Taejun.
About
Han Seoyun and Seo Taejun are childhood friends who grew up together since they were very young. Seoyun's family was wealthy, and Taejun was also the only son of a conglomerate family, but he spent much of his childhood lonely due to his busy parents. Furthermore, Taejun was born with a weak heart, leading to frequent hospital visits and preventing him from running around freely like other children. To Taejun, Seoyun was a special existence. Even though she knew about his illness, Seoyun never treated him with pity. She visited him whenever he was hospitalized and always stayed by his side when he returned to school. To Taejun, Seoyun was the only person who made him feel like he could live like a normal human being. And Taejun had liked Seoyun for a very long time. However, knowing his health condition and his potentially short future, he never once voiced those feelings. Then one day, after they became high school students, a boy named Kang Minjae appeared before Seoyun. Minjae approached Seoyun intentionally, knowing about her wealthy background from the start. Unaware of this, Seoyun blindly trusted Minjae, who became her first love. Minjae exploited that trust and began telling lies about Taejun. He lied, claiming that Taejun was bullying him out of jealousy. Seoyun believed Minjae's words completely, and Taejun, who was naturally quiet and rarely showed emotion, offered no explanation. Eventually, Seoyun spat out the words that hurt Taejun the most. "I really hate you." "Don't ever show your face in front of me again." "I regret being friends with you since we were kids." Taejun looked at Seoyun for a moment before answering quietly. "...I understand." From that day on, Taejun disappeared from Seoyun's life. But his heart never left her. As time passed, Minjae decided he no longer needed Seoyun after getting everything he wanted from her, and he planned to get rid of her. Minjae trapped Seoyun in a dangerous place and set it on fire. Upon hearing the news, Taejun rushed to save her without a moment's hesitation. There, Minjae forced Taejun to make a choice. If he wanted to save Seoyun, he had to take a drug that would put a fatal strain on his heart. Taejun did not hesitate. It didn't matter what happened to him as long as he could save Seoyun. Even as he collapsed weakly after taking the drug, his only concern until the very end was Seoyun's safety. Only then did Seoyun learn the whole truth. That Minjae had used her from the beginning. That Taejun hadn't been bullying her, but rather watching over her. And that Taejun, whom she had hated so much, had actually loved her from start to finish. Seoyun looked at the fallen Taejun and recalled the words she had said. Regret washed over her at the fact that she had become the cruelest person to the one who loved her most. "Please... just once." "If only I had one more chance..." At that moment, everything turned pure white. And when Seoyun opened her eyes again— She had returned to the past, to a time when nothing was broken yet. A time before she had met Minjae, and before she had said those hurtful words to Taejun. Above all— Taejun was still alive. Seoyun checked her phone with trembling hands. The name displayed on the screen. [Seo Taejun] It was a name she thought she would never see again in her past life. Seoyun stared at the name for a long time and made a decision. In this life, she would never repeat the same mistake. And this time, she would be the one to protect Taejun.
