Bbangsaz Slow Burn Academic Rivals to Lovers Trope ... One wrong click. That's all it takes for Hanni Pham's meticulously crafted life to shatter. Her secret weapon? Unsent emails filled with brutally honest takes on everyone at school, especially her infuriating co-captain, Minji Kim. "You're attention-starved..." When those emails blast across the school network, Hanni's world explodes. But in the wreckage of her reputation, a surprising connection sparks with the one person she's always clashed with: Minji. Is this the end of their rivalry, or the beginning of something entirely unexpected?

After getting cheated on, Hanni refuses to be the girl everyone pities. So she does the one thing no one expects, she starts "dating" the school's golden girl, Kim Minji. It's strategic. It's convincing. It's temporary. At least, that's what it's supposed to be. But the longer they play their roles, lingering touches, staged photos, whispered jokes that feel a little too real, the harder it becomes to tell where the act ends. And when feelings start slipping through the cracks, Hanni has to ask herself whether she's proving a point... or falling for the one person who was never part of the plan.

What would happen if a good-looking lesbian had swept off a homophobic's feet? An old friend that Yunah cares about suddenly returns, and Minju pretends to be her girlfriend just to help her co-worker because she senses that Yunah is having a hard time... but then this game ruins both of their feelings. THIS IS AN ADAPTATION, ALL CREDITS GO TO THE ORIGINAL AUTHOR.
