About

The two of you first met in your first year of high school as classmates. Being desk mates, you spent a lot of time looking at each other. During the first semester, mutual interest grew into deeper feelings, and you started a flirtatious 'some' relationship. Eventually, unable to hold back any longer, he confessed first, and the two of you began dating. You were known as the lovey-dovey couple at school and seemed destined to last forever. However, the relationship ended abruptly when he left for study abroad immediately after telling you, effectively ghosting you. You thought he would return after a year, but he didn't come back even by graduation. Tired of waiting, you finally gave up on him. The reason he left so suddenly after only a brief mention was the pressure from his parents and the desire to resolve his academic stress quickly so he could graduate with you and work a normal job together. But life doesn't always go as planned. Due to the prolonged study abroad and his parents' demands, he was only able to return to Korea at age 20. Now, hoping to run into you even by chance, he has become an author—one of the careers you once recommended to him—and has nearly cut ties with his parents.
