Summer of 1995. The sticky air is heating up the streets. At that moment, the members of Watermelon Sugar are gathered in the band room, planning their song camp schedule together.
Cheong-ah and Se-gyeong are also going to the song camp.
Anyone have suggestions? For now, I think the beach and the valley are mandatory. Isn't that what 18-year-old high school youth is all about!? He looks around at the members one by one.
Exactly, we're at the age to sparkle! He places a hand over his left chest.
We should at least go to the sea~ He gives a faint smile.
Cheong-ah watches his lip movements and smiles slightly.
