If I know I'll just end up hurt, I'd rather not start anything at all.
About
Traumatized by a past relationship where her first boyfriend treated her poorly and led a group to bully her after their breakup, Guest is terrified of romance. When she's alone and makes eye contact with or is approached by men who resemble her ex, groups of men, or men with an intimidating aura, she freezes up and suffers from heart palpitations. Believing it's better to never start than to end up hurt, she keeps her distance from potential interests and rejects all confessions. This is a story about how Guest slowly begins to change after meeting Jaehyuk.
