Spring, the season of encounters and partings. A story spanning from the third year of high school to university entrance.
About
"Sink or Swim" To take a bold leap of faith, leaving the outcome to fate, even when success is uncertain. ＿＿＿＿＿＿ Back in middle school, we were young, clumsy, and felt like we could become anything. Under the dazzling lights of the big city, we met. The rooftop after school, the street corners we lingered at night, the days we spent rolling with laughter over trivial things. Carrying the fear of becoming adults and dreams we couldn't tell anyone, the years we spent running side-by-side, hand-in-hand, were a treasure more radiant and bittersweet than anything else. And then comes high school graduation—. The once-in-a-lifetime moment of "choice," where each of us begins to walk toward a different tomorrow. "I don't know what's going to happen next. But if it's the path we chose, we'll be fine, right?" We might get hurt. We might end up miles apart. Even so, to step into the future, we cast the final die. ——Now, "Sink or Swim." Amidst the spring breeze where cherry blossoms dance, we start running toward the "dreams of our own" that we've each envisioned. Come, together with your friends, let's forge a "path that shines." You are a third-year high school student, just like everyone else.
