In the bustling city of Seoul, the lives of teenagers intertwine as fate brings them together. Eighteen-year-old Jae's world takes an unexpected turn when his well-meaning parents force him to enroll in extra courses at a prestigious private school...
The plane's engines roared to life as Jae settled into his seat, the low hum echoing the heaviness in his heart. He gazed out the window, watching the lights of London recede into the distance. It had been a month of searching, a month of hope and disappointment. He had poured his soul into the concert, believing that fate had finally aligned their paths, only to be met with an empty space where Rem should have been.
As the plane ascended, memories of their time together flooded Jae's mind. The laughter they shared, the dreams they nurtured, and the moments that felt like eternity—all of it seemed like fragments of a dream slipping through his fingers. He reached for the small notebook he always kept with him, the one filled with lyrics and thoughts about Rem. It had been his solace during the journey, a way to hold onto the past while yearning for the future.

Hours later, the plane touched down on familiar ground, but Jae's heart was still in London. He returned to his small apartment, a place that felt both comforting and suffocating. The walls were adorned with memories—photographs, concert tickets, and mementos of their time together. He sank onto the couch, his mind still wandering the streets of London, searching for any sign of her.
In the days that followed, Jae threw himself into his music, finding solace in the melodies that had once been their shared language. Each note carried the weight of his longing, the hope that she would hear his songs and understand the message he was trying to convey—that he was still searching for her, that she was the muse behind every lyric.
But unbeknownst to him, as he poured his heart into the music, fate was playing a cruel prank....
Going back to some hours before the concert, Rem returned hesitantly to the table, she found Julien waiting, concern etched on his face. He had noticed the change in her demeanor and sensed that something significant had happened. He reached out, his hand gently touching hers, silently conveying his support and understanding.
Rem took a deep breath, her heart torn between two paths. She looked into Julien's eyes, grateful for his presence and the connection they had formed. "Julien," she began, her voice filled with a mixture of gratitude and hesitation, "I need to be honest with you. Something unexpected has happened. Someone from my past has resurfaced, and it has thrown me into a state of confusion."
Julien nodded, his expression a mix of empathy and concern. "Rem, I want you to know that whatever you decide, I will support you. Our friendship means the world to me, and I want nothing but your happiness."
Tears welled up in Rem's eyes as she searched for the right words. "Julien, you're an incredible person, and I value our friendship more than anything. But there's a part of me that feels compelled to explore this opportunity, to see if there's still a chance for something that was once so special."
Julien smiled gently, his eyes filled with understanding. "Rem, go and find out what your heart truly desires. If there's a chance for you to rediscover that love, then I want you to follow it. Life is too short for regrets."
As Rem's phone buzzed with notifications from her friends urging her to attend the concert, she looked at Julien one last time, gratitude and sadness mingling in her gaze. "Thank you, Julien. I'm grateful for your friendship and your understanding. I will always cherish our time together."
With a final exchange of heartfelt words, Rem left the restaurant, her steps guided by the pull of destiny. She knew that the road ahead would be filled with uncertainties, but she also knew that she had to follow her heart and seek the answers that awaited her in London.

As she made her way to the concert venue, Rem's mind buzzed with anticipation and nervousness. She wondered if Jae would recognize her after all this time, if their connection would still be as strong as it once was. But one thing was certain—she was willing to take the leap, to embrace the unknown, and to see where this unexpected twist of fate would lead her.
Rem had returned to London only few minutes after Jae left, her heart was set on finding him, but the timing was never in their favor. She had planned to surprise him at the concert, but a last-minute delay had thwarted her plans. Now, she roamed the streets he had just left, searching for a trace of him, unaware of his absence. After hours of searching, she didn't find anyone and almost broke down in tears when she knew he left.
Rem had been busy during her year away, exploring new places, meeting new people, and trying to heal the void in her heart. But no matter how far she went or how much she tried to move on, thoughts of Jae were never far from her mind. He was the missing piece she couldn't replace, the melody she couldn't forget.
One evening, as the sun dipped below the horizon, Rem found herself at a small café she used to frequent during her art school days. The memories of her time with Jae flooded back, and she couldn't help but smile at the bittersweet nostalgia. She ordered her favorite drink and settled into a corner, her sketchbook in hand.
As she flipped through the pages, her mind wandered back to the time when she first met him. Their chance encounter had felt like destiny, a twist of fate that brought them together in Berlin. But as quickly as fate had intertwined their paths, it seemed to have a cruel sense of humor, pulling them apart when they needed each other the most.
Meanwhile, back in his apartment, Jae stared at his guitar, fingers itching to strum the chords of a new song. He felt a surge of inspiration, a melody forming in his mind, and he grabbed the notebook to capture the fleeting thoughts. With each word and note, he poured his soul onto the paper, his heart yearning for Rem, even though he felt farther from her than ever before.
The days turned into weeks, and both Jae and Rem continued their separate journeys, each unaware of the other's presence in the city they once shared. As they roamed the same streets, visited the same places, and breathed the same air, fate seemed to keep them just out of each other's reach.
As the days turned into months, Jae's music gained popularity, reaching far beyond the borders of his small apartment. His songs spoke to the hearts of many, resonating with those who had experienced the joy and pain of love. Little did he know that Rem was among those who had listened to his music, each lyric pulling her closer to him, even though they were still worlds apart.
And so, fate continued to play its game, teasing them with near-miss encounters and missed connections. But little did Jae and Rem know that their paths were about to intersect once more, and this time, fate would be kinder to them. The threads of destiny were drawing them closer, and soon, they would find themselves in each other's embrace, the cruel twist of fate finally unraveling into a moment of pure serendipity. Or at least that's what some readers are waiting for ... will it happen? let's see.
