Hearts in the Hallway

SYPNOSIS

In Hearts in the Hallway Kang Haerin Senior year at Hanlim Multi Arts High School begins like any other: filled with the usual stress of grades, friendships, and the ever-present tension with Marsh Danielle, her longtime rival. Danielle is the golden girl of their school, has always been everything Haerin isn't-popular, effortlessly charming, and annoyingly good at everything. Their rivalry has been a fixture of her high school life, each clash between them more competitive and frustrating than the last.

But this year feels different. When fate (and a teacher's seating arrangement) forces Haerin and Danielle to sit next to each other in class, the spark between them shifts from pure animosity to something more confusing and complicated. As they navigate their senior year, Haerin finds herself questioning whether the hate they've built up over the years is really just a cover for something deeper.

With every sarcastic remark, every heated argument, and every unexpected moment of connection, Haerin begins to realize that maybe the person she's fought against the most might just be the one she's been secretly drawn to all along.

Hearts in the Hallway is a high school enemies-to-lovers romance that explores the fine line between rivalry and attraction, and the way love can bloom in the most unexpected places. Can Haerin and Danielle put aside their past to embrace a future together, or will their differences keep them from ever being more than enemies?

It's a story about growing up, discovering who you are, and maybe-even falling in love with the last person you ever thought you would.
