Synopsis
Childhood friends Ha-neul and Mincheol vow no romance, but unexpected events challenge their promise.
Ha-neul and Mincheol have been childhood friends for all of their lives, but their relationship takes on a whole new dynamic when they undergo a series of unexpected events. Although they vowed that they'd never be romantically attracted to each other, they just might be proven wrong... especially when things start to escalate and neither can predict where they'll end up.
