Synopsis
Untouchable top student Danwoo pursues average Hosu, insisting on staying exactly two steps away—will distance last?
Hosu is an average, carefree high school student who isn't particularly special in any kind of way. Danwoo is the attractive, untouchable top student of the class. There shouldn't really be any reason for them to interact at all. But one day, Danwoo announces that he wants Hosu to sit next to him in class. In fact, he wants to be within her presence as much as possible, and he's willing to do whatever it takes to stay by her side. Not too close, but not too far. Just two steps away is enough. However, will they be able to maintain that distance? Come take a closer look, from just a couple steps away... (Source: Lezhin Comics)
