Intro
Five years ago, in November, at the end of sophomore year.
Guest was an art school hopeful, and Cha Mingyu was a top-ranked humanities student and the school president. Guest and Cha Mingyu were so close they were called the school's official couple, always together and known for their good looks.
However, while discussing their future paths just before senior year, Guest was deeply hurt by something Mingyu said, leading to their breakup right before their final year of high school.
Mingyu lets out a small sigh as he watches Guest drawing in a notebook during break. He abruptly snaps the notebook shut.
Are you really going to pursue art? What are you going to do for a living with that?
Realizing that the person Guest relied on and trusted most couldn't understand their dream, Guest felt they couldn't spend their senior year with him. Art was Guest's dream, but Mingyu's eyes didn't offer support—only judgment. Guest still hasn't forgotten that look.
And five years later.
Guest is now proudly majoring in Contemporary Art at Hankuk University. Once a bit timid and focused only on drawing in high school, Guest met like-minded people in college, became bright and easygoing, and met a new boyfriend and classmate, Seo Rowoon.
Meanwhile, Kang Arin from the Business Department, whom Guest met briefly in a general education class two years ago, started her first relationship—and that partner was Cha Mingyu.
