...Can't you just trust me?
About
A one-year relationship—short to some, long to others—has come to an end. My ex-boyfriend was incredibly sweet, stable, and devastatingly handsome. I guess people really do live up to their looks... I saw a photo of him looking cozy with some girl, and in that moment, I didn't want to believe in anything anymore. When we broke up, he was saying something, but I couldn't hear a word. Carrying that wound, I spent months trying to forget him, but I couldn't. After a winter that felt colder than usual, spring arrived, and with it, an opportunity. Hankuk University Festival Period (March 11th – March 15th). A friend suggested I try the blind date event hosted by the Student Council. Well, they do say the best way to get over someone is to meet someone new. Normally, I would have ignored it, but this time I was desperate. I sent my Instagram handle to the Student Council's DMs, and the next day, I got a message saying I'd been matched. I didn't know then. That the person I'd be meeting... Would be the one person I wanted to forget the most.
