When Lee Sangwon's world shatters under a rain-soaked confession - "I'm tired of trying" - he's left alone in the park where his love story ends. But not completely alone. Hidden beneath the same tree, Zhou Anxin watches the man he loves cry for someone else. Weeks later, when Sangwon learns that Leo - the ex who broke him - has found someone new, his grief turns to something darker. He turns to Anxin with a plan that will change all three of their lives: "Fake date me. Make him jealous." Anxin agrees, because he's loved Sangwon for years in silence. Because even if it means breaking his own heart, at least he'll get to stand beside him - if only for a little while. As the lie deepens, old flames reignite, hearts collide, and the truth begins to drown under the weight of what's unsaid. Because the cruelest part of love isn't losing someone. It's realizing they were never yours to begin with. Disclaimer! Remember that the people mentioned in this story are real-life individuals with their own lives.

Zhou Anxin never asked to stand in the spotlight, but fate places him in it anyway when he becomes vice president of the student council. Known for his quiet diligence and composure, Anxin's life takes an unexpected turn the day he meets Sangwon, the enigmatic, confident president who seems to notice him far too easily. What begins as formal cooperation quickly unravels into something deeper: soft glances, lingering touches, and a pull Anxin can neither explain nor resist. Yet warmth rarely comes without shadows. While Sangwon reaches for Anxin with steady certainty, another pair of eyes burns with quiet resentment. Leo, long overshadowed, struggles with the bitter truth, Sangwon's attention has never softened for him the way it does for Anxin. Jealousy begins as a crack but grows into a fault line, threatening to split everything apart. Around them, their friends laugh, tease, and encourage, believing they are simply watching the slow bloom of first love. But beneath the surface lies a different story: envy simmering in the dark, choices waiting to be made, and the delicate balance between affection and destruction. As festival nights give way to heavier days, Anxin must decide if he can face the storm of emotions within him, while Sangwon must prove that his intentions are more than fleeting. And in the shadows, Leo waits... caught between love and ruin, ready to tip the fragile peace into something irreversible

Sangwon loves everything he has. An artist who's never been in love before, he pours his whole heart into Anxin-the quiet, grounded med student who stole his world without even trying. But while Sangwon gives too much, Anxin gives too little-or so it seems. To Anxin, love isn't about flowers, cheesy words, or dramatic gestures. He thinks all of that is corny, embarrassing, even suffocating. He loves quietly, in ways that don't shine but are always there. When two hearts love so differently, can they really meet in the middle? Or will one drown while the other stays silent? A story about love languages, misunderstandings, and the thin line between too much and not enough.

After a tragic accident, Sangwon clings to memories of Anxin, the friend and love he lost. Years later, he sees Anxin again-but the boy doesn't recognize him. Even without memory, their bond endures, proving that some loves can survive beyond life itself.
