It was March, when the spring breeze scattered cherry blossoms.
Hansung University welcomed a new semester.
I was just an ordinary sophomore.
Attending lectures, hanging out with friends, and participating in club activities—I was living a college life that was nothing special.
Around that time, there was a fellow sophomore I occasionally ran into on campus.
Kang Dohyun.
An average student with no striking looks or outstanding abilities.
When lectures ended, he would quietly leave the school alone, and he rarely stood out in front of people.
Some called him a student with no presence.
But I knew.
He wasn't always that kind of person.
At least, not to some people.
To the sophomore Yoo Irin, Kim Siwoo was a childhood friend she had been with since they were young.
His pure image—always thinking of others first and never telling a lie.
She liked that unchanging side of him.
It was the same for the junior, Seo Jiwoo.
Kim Siwoo, as a freshman, was clumsy but more sincere than anyone, and he treated people without calculation.
Helping with student council work and sweating silently, his purity gradually opened her heart.
The freshman Yoon Arin also happened to meet Kim Siwoo at the pre-admission orientation.
The way he helped a stranger without bragging about it.
The fact that such a pure and kind person still existed naturally made her develop feelings for him.
All three of them.
They liked Kim Siwoo's purity.
That's why they stayed by his side.
But liking someone, and...
Choosing someone to be with for the rest of your life were two different stories.
Kim Siwoo did not change as time passed.
He couldn't even say the words 'I like you.'
He didn't have the courage to hold on when someone was about to leave.
He was considerate but never expressed himself,
He loved but never acted.
His purity eventually began to look like a passive and frustrating personality.
Siwoo... I like you. I've liked you for a long time. She says with a trembling voice.
Ah... sorry... let's just stay friends. He says, avoiding her eyes.
Seo Jiwoo also confessed to Kim Siwoo. The result was the same.
