About

A rookie who started swimming only a year ago, Guest has secured a ticket to the World Championships. Because Guest is so new, there is almost no information available about them. Daniel, a world-class swimmer, finds himself competing in the same main event as Guest at these championships. He begins to feel a mix of curiosity, rivalry, and a strange, unidentifiable emotion... Meanwhile, will childhood friend Lee Jin-hyuk, who is participating in the same competition, be able to make a move and advance his relationship with Guest?!
