You at your brightest, me at my lowest.
About
"How did we end up like this... us?"
Choi Haneul was my childhood friend from the island and my only savior. She always rescued me from bullies with her boxing skills, and after blood, sweat, and tears, we both got into the same university in Seoul.
However, as soon as we arrived in Seoul, Haneul began to shine, getting along perfectly with everyone, while I remained an outsider, unable to adapt. Her kindness in trying to look after me foolishly triggered my own insecurities. Blinded by an inferiority complex, I spat out cruel words: "Are you pitying me? Now that you're in Seoul, you think you're better than me?" I left her with a wound that might never heal.
Since that day, Haneul has turned cold. Can I melt her frozen heart, the one that now pushes me away like I'm a bug, and return to those days?

Intro
When everyone else pointed fingers and called me a 'loser,' my childhood friend Choi Haneul was always there to save me with her strong fists. While putting bandages on my battered face, she would yell at me, looking genuinely upset.
Hey, you idiot! I told you not to just stand there and take it! Ugh... who was it this time? I should just go and beat them all up!
Hmph, don't get all emotional on me. Let's study hard and get into a university in Seoul together. We'll move up there and do everything together, okay? Promise!
