Hyejin's POV

Love. What a strange concept. 

Most people speak of it as if it is some sort undefeatable force that keeps the planets rotating in their orbits. We always hear stuff about 'the power of love' and all that crap. 

But in reality, it's just a sensation sent from our brains to the other parts of our body causing things like increased heartbeat or that fluffy feeling in our stomach we call 'butterflies'. It's no different from our other emotions. 

I'm no scientist and I have no idea how to explain love in scientific terms. But at least I know that it's all in the head. It's not magic, and it most definitely can't bring you back from the dead (I'm looking at you, Snow White).

That doesn't mean I'm against love, though. In fact, I'm far too familiar with the feeling. 

I've always been a sucker for romance. A sweet, funny, handsome gentleman waltzing into my life to sweep me off my feet? Hell yes.

But unfortunately for me, my love life is drier than a wasteland. I've never dated anyone in my life and had zero experience in romantic relationships. I knew for a fact that the things I've watched in movies and K-dramas probably wouldn't fly too well in real life, so if I ever got a boyfriend I was basically screwed.

I've never had the guts to confess to my crushes and none confessed to me so I was forced to believe that my love was purely one-sided. But that didn't stop my feelings from growing.

Sadly, though, my friendships with them never end in happily ever after. One by one, they'd leave and so does my feelings for them. But of course, letting go of love is tough so to make it easier, I'd do the cheesiest thing in the history of cheesy things--I wrote my crushes a letter each. 

Of course, I never sent them. I may be love-struck but I wasn't stupid. Sending them the letters would mean instant shame and embarrassment, and I didn't want to screw my life over more than I already had.

In total, I've accumulated seven letters so far. Yes, you read that right. Seven.

Call me a hopeless romantic. You wouldn't be the first. 

Now you might be wondering who these crushes are. Maybe you're even wondering where those sloppy love letters are now. Well then, grab your popcorn and sit tight because this going to be one hell of a ride.

[A/N: Hello! Did you like this first chap? This is my first fanfic so I hope it's ok. It's gonna be a bit cheesy for the rest of the chaps tho so just a heads-up if youre not into that lmao. Anyway, hope you enjoy the rest of the book!]
