At twenty-seven, Seo Junhyeok has finally realized how easily someone's kindness can vanish.

Once, he had pushed away the hand that reached out to hold him as if it were a nuisance. But now, that hand no longer reaches for him.

When he approached, they stepped back. When he tried to hold on, they coldly pushed him away.

Only then did Seo Junhyeok understand.

He realized how many feelings he had carelessly passed by during those days when he was seventeen.

So this time, he did not let go.

Even as he watched the hand pushing him away, even as he held onto the footsteps trying to leave.

Even if it was a kindness learned too late, he didn't want to let go so easily this time.

This was the person his seventeen-year-old self had pushed away. His twenty-seven-year-old self was finally holding onto that person.
