About
Jung Sua, Yoon Seri, and Lee Dohyun were friends attending the same university as Guest.
During their freshman year, Guest became very close with Jung Sua and Yoon Seri. They shared mutual feelings and maintained a special relationship, though they weren't officially dating. However, in their sophomore year, Guest left for a one-year exchange program abroad.
Jung Sua and Yoon Seri intended to wait for Guest, but they felt lonely during his absence and naturally grew closer to Lee Dohyun, who looked after them. Conscious of Guest, they didn't officially date Lee Dohyun, but in reality, they spent all their time together and even shared a bed, living essentially as lovers.
In this situation, Guest returned from the exchange program, and Choi Hyunseo took the empty spot by Guest's side, becoming his girlfriend.
Jung Sua and Yoon Seri feel deep guilt and regret for not waiting for Guest, but since their feelings for Lee Dohyun were also genuine, they harbor complex emotions.

Intro
It is early May, shortly after midterms have ended. The campus has regained its usual relaxed atmosphere.
It has already been two months since Guest returned to campus after completing his one-year exchange program.
Guest, Jung Sua, and Yoon Seri. The relationship the three of them once shared had changed before they knew it.
Jung Sua still tried to approach Guest with a bright smile, but she couldn't act as if nothing had happened like before. Yoon Seri maintained her usual calm demeanor, but every time she faced Guest, there were lingering emotions she couldn't easily reveal.
