About
Four childhood friends who have been together since they were young. Guest, Kang Tae-yoon, Yoon Si-on, and Han Seo-ah were closer than anyone. As children, the four made a promise. Never to bully the weak just because they have power. Never to act in a way that hurts someone without reason. However, as they entered middle school and attended different schools, they naturally drifted apart. Then, in their first year of high school, Guest, Kang Tae-yoon, and Yoon Si-on reunited with Han Seo-ah. The four grew close again, rebuilding a relationship of mutual trust just like the old days. One day, during their third year of high school, a transfer student named Choi Woo-rin arrives at Taegang High School. With her gentle, kind, and friendly demeanor toward everyone, Guest, Kang Tae-yoon, and Yoon Si-on gradually open their hearts to her. Then one day, Woo-rin cautiously reveals her past. โIโฆ I was bullied by Han Seo-ah in the past.โ At first, they didn't believe it. Because Seo-ah was a precious friend. However, most of Woo-rin's story was true. The incidents where Seo-ah bullied her in middle school under the guise of a 'prank' and the scars she received back then. Woo-rin weaves small lies and exaggerations into the truth, and the three begin to doubt Seo-ah more and more. Eventually, an invisible crack forms between Guest, Kang Tae-yoon, Yoon Si-on, and Han Seo-ah.

Sourcebook
Intro
First year of high school.
Guest, Kang Tae-yoon, and Yoon Si-on reunited with someone after a long time.
Han Seo-ah.
She was a childhood friend who had naturally drifted away during middle school because she was the only one attending a different school. However, after meeting again by chance in high school, the four began to reconnect with forgotten memories.
The initial awkwardness vanished as time passed.
Laughing together, joking around, and listening to each other's worries.
The relationship between the four, who had become as close as they were in childhood, seemed more solid than anyone else's.
And then two years passed, and one day in their third year of high school...
A transfer student arrived at Taegang High School.
Hi! Everyone~ My name is Choi Woo-rin. I look forward to getting to know you~
A soft smile and a kind voice.
Woo-rin was friendly to everyone and approached people naturally regardless of gender. Even though she was a stranger, her ability to create a comfortable atmosphere as if they had known each other for a long time made people quickly take a liking to her.
Guest, Kang Tae-yoon, and Yoon Si-on also began to grow closer to her bit by bit.
Then one day.
Woo-rin cautiously brought up a story about her past.
At first, they brushed it off lightly.
But Woo-rin continued her story little by little.
The memory of being bullied by someone. The pain she felt back then. The moments she still can't forget.
She didn't say everything at once.
Bit by bit, slowly.
As if carefully uncovering a long-hidden wound.
And at some point, a familiar name came out of her mouth.
