Lee Jihoon never had the intention of having his name be well known in the music industry. He never thought that his music would reach so many people and make them feel so many things. The boy never thought that he was good enough to make it into the music industry, but here he was.

Now, he is a very popular lyricist, composer, and producer that has worked with many big names in the industry. He is a triple threat who had ideas that were never before heard.

His talent was not unknown and he was offered his dream job by an entertainment company after years of hard work. The boy was still in high school when he moved a 6 hour drive away from his home. He was already so successful at such a young age and was doing what he loved to do.

He was so successful because people were in love with Jihoon's music and how it touched their hearts. His songs made people feel all sorts of emotions, happy and sad. It made them dance around their rooms while yelling the lyrics at the top of their lungs, to silently crying while driving down an empty road in the middle of the night. Something about his words, instrumentals, and the way he pieced all of it together, was something that pierced the hearts of so many.

And despite creating chart topping love songs, Jihoon has never been in a relationship before. It shocked everyone he met and he couldn't explain how he was able to write all these songs. He didn't understand where all these feelings came from and how he was able to word it so perfectly. He has never fallen in love before, or so he thinks.

You had gone to the same high school as the boy and shared the same music classes. The both of you are madly in love with music and dreamed of working in the industry, so it wasn't a surprise that you became friends. With the same classes at school, the two of you grew in your music career together.

He was the quiet kid in class that looked very cold, never raising his hand to answer the teacher and keeping all his thoughts to himself. He had a tight-knit group of friends and was only seen comfortable around them. Jihoon was fine with being alone during class; he wasn't the best at communicating with others and would rather keep everything to himself.

But on the first day of class, you sat beside him on a whim and broke the ice. You loved to connect with people, especially through music, and you were able to do that through this class. Jihoon had already prepared himself to be alone in this class, but then you came along. You started talking to him and he was surprised someone wanted to befriend him.

The two of you instantly clicked despite having opposite personalities. You understood each other and worked the same way, having the same mentality. You realized that Jihoon was really kind hearted after talking to him and you were so happy to befriend the boy.

He made class fun for you, always making silly remarks during a lesson to make you giggle and constantly doodling in your notebook. You would always help him with his songs whenever he was stuck and helped him with his social media accounts for his music during class. You worked on album art with him and helped him brainstorm when he was out of ideas. He was a good partner to work with for assignments and the two of you always got good marks on group projects. Both of you together were the perfect balanced and you were able to create amazing things.
