When Y/N returns to her family's beach house after years away, she expects warm sand, quiet sunsets, and the same sleepy coastal town she left behind. What she doesn't expect is him. Keonho - the boy who once taught her how to chase waves and dream big - is now engaged to her cousin, Heart. Their old friend group is back together for the summer, pretending nothing's changed.

As memories resurface and buried letters come to light, Y/N is forced to face the truth she's tried to forget: some people never really move on, they just learn how to hide it. And somewhere between the salt air and the sound of the tide, she realizes - maybe growing up isn't about letting go. Maybe it's about learning when to look back.
