Unexpected Pairing

**Episode 1: The Unexpected Pairing**

[Scene 1: Heartstrings High Courtyard - Morning]

The sun rises over Heartstrings High, casting a warm glow on the bustling courtyard as students rush to their first classes. Among the students is Kim Hye-jin, a studious girl with a determined stride, and Park Ji-hoon, who can't help but make a grand entrance with a guitar strapped to his back. They couldn't be more different.

Hye-jin's best friend, Kim Soo-mi, approaches her, flipping through a notebook.

Soo-mi: (Excitedly) "Hye-jin, can you believe it's our last year of high school? I've already planned out my entire study schedule for the year!"

Hye-jin: (Smiling) "You're such a dedicated bookworm, Soo-mi. But remember, we need to enjoy our senior year too."

[Scene 2: Heartstrings High Classroom - Morning]

Inside the classroom, Hye-jin takes a seat in the front row, opening her textbooks and diligently preparing for the day. In contrast, Ji-hoon struts in, causing a commotion and making his friends laugh.

Ji-hoon's friend, Kim Tae-ho, points to Hye-jin and nudges Ji-hoon.

Tae-ho: (Whispering) "Ji-hoon, check out your project partner, the class president. Good luck with that!"

Ji-hoon: (Grinning) "Tae-ho, you have no idea. I can handle anyone!"

As Ji-hoon makes his way to his desk, he can't help but notice Hye-jin's studious focus.

Ji-hoon: (Mumbling to himself) "Class president, huh? She's a hard nut to crack."

Hye-jin, aware of Ji-hoon's presence, glances up from her notes, raising an eyebrow as she observes the commotion he's causing. She's determined to keep her focus despite the distraction.

Hye-jin: (Softly) "I won't let anything disrupt my studies."

Ji-hoon, unable to resist his playful nature, leans over to Tae-ho.

Ji-hoon: (Whispering) "Watch this."

He begins strumming the guitar slung over his shoulder, a melodious tune filling the classroom. The students are captivated, and even Hye-jin can't help but be momentarily entranced by the music.

Tae-ho: (Impressed) "He's got some serious talent, doesn't he?"

The teacher, Ms. Lee, enters the classroom, a bemused smile on her face as she sees Ji-hoon's impromptu performance.

Ms. Lee: (Chuckling) "Park Ji-hoon, you never fail to surprise. But it's time to settle down now."

Ji-hoon reluctantly stops playing and takes his seat, still casting a curious glance towards Hye-jin.

Ji-hoon: (Intrigued) "This year's going to be a lot more interesting than I thought."

[Scene 3: Heartstrings High Classroom - Morning]

The teacher, Ms. Lee, enters the classroom, holding a list of pairings for a semester-long project.

Ms. Lee: (Clearing her throat) "Students, we have a special project this semester. You'll be working in pairs. The pairings are completely random, so no complaints."

Hye-jin and Ji-hoon exchange glances, each one equally surprised.

Ms. Lee: (Reading from her list) "First up, Kim Hye-jin and Park Ji-hoon."

Hye-jin and Ji-hoon look at each other, disbelief in their eyes.

Hye-jin: (Softly to herself) "This is going to be interesting."
