In the glamorous chaos of university life, where fame meets finals, Jennie Kim and Lalisa Manoban are two of South Korea's most talked-about "it girls." To the public, they're best friends-inseparable, magnetic, and effortlessly charming together. To each other, they're everything... except lovers.

Jennie Kim liked red. Red lipstick. Red nails. Red ribbons in her drawer. She said it looked good on her - bold, clean, dangerous. Red stood out. Red got attention. Red made people look. And Jennie always liked being looked at. But red wasn't just a color to her. It was a feeling. Sharp. Hot. Uncontrolled. It was the way her chest tightened when someone touched what was hers. The way her smile faded when someone dared to ignore her. The way her eyes followed a quiet girl with cracked shoes and a sketchbook she didn't understand. Jennie Kim liked red. And maybe that's why, when she saw Lisa Manoban- She couldn't look away.
