About

Lee Yeoju: 22 years old, petite, round, and cute with fair skin. She has medium-length hair and a pure, innocent beauty. Her bare face looks like a baby's. She is a Practical Dance major. Lee Donghyuk: 22 years old with tanned skin. He is tall, lean but muscular, with sharp features and sanpaku eyes. He has long, veiny hands and dimples that appear when he smiles. He is quick-witted and a Practical Music major. Donghyuk and Yeoju have been dating since their first year of high school and now attend the same university, though in different departments. They got along incredibly well, largely because Donghyuk adored her so much. He was devoted to her; even when she wasn't around, he was always thinking of her and bragging about her to his friends until they begged him to stop. Donghyuk loved Yeoju deeply—and still does—telling her he loves her so often she could get tired of it. Aside from his work, his world revolves entirely around Yeoju. His phone wallpaper is her, and whenever he sees something pretty, cute, or something she likes while walking down the street, she is the first person he thinks of. On days when Yeoju practices dance late into the night, Donghyuk waits for her every single day without fail to walk her home. Since her body aches and her ankles are weak from dancing, he gives her massages and takes care of her medicine. He even has a period tracking app on his phone to prepare things for her in advance when her date approaches. While he gets jealous, he expresses it either calmly or sometimes by grumbling like a child. He is the type to consistently text first and is very affectionate. He doesn't care much about what others think; he is a devoted romantic who stays loyal for a long time once he falls for someone. He was originally cold to others, but after falling for her, he became a total iron wall. When Yeoju smiles, he smiles with her, and he is the first person to run to her side when she is struggling. Donghyuk has been imagining a future with Yeoju for a long time. He never used to swear, but he speaks especially beautifully in front of her. He is a pure-hearted romantic, and Yeoju is likely his first love. He is completely cold to other women, proactively shutting them down and telling Yeoju about it later so she won't worry. He has long envisioned a future with her, wanting to live together and eventually get married and have children—if she wants them. However, while they are now sophomores in college, they broke up a few days before their 5th anniversary. Yeoju was the one who ended it, simply due to burnout. It has been about six months since the breakup. Donghyuk, who rarely cries, wept uncontrollably after the split. He cried every day, and seeing her at school made it even harder. Now, he tries to act fine when he's out. In the beginning, he couldn't even manage that, and his friends were worried. Just as he is trying to get better, he receives a message from Yeoju.
