Story Description:
"Hana Grace" is a bright, energetic girl with a smile that lights up any room. Known for her cheerful and bubbly personality, she's always the center of attention. But few know that underneath her happy facade, she's quietly struggling to keep up the act. Only her best friend, Jaemin, knows the real Hana-the one who craves peace and quiet after a long day of pretending.
"Chin Won"-the rich and handsome heartthrob of the university-is known for his cold demeanor and quiet nature. Despite his popularity, he prefers staying out of the spotlight, blending into the crowd. There's a peculiar rumor about him, one that every girl in school has whispered about at least once-Chin Won never touches women. Not even a handshake. Most believe it's just an arrogant quirk, but little do they know, the truth runs much deeper than anyone could imagine.
When their professor assigns a group project during a photography trip, Hana and Chin Won find themselves unexpectedly paired together, alongside their friends Jaemin and P'Jade (who are secretly gay, known only to their best friend). The trip, meant to capture realistic moments, pushes them out of their comfort zones. While Hana is excited, she's also anxious about the closeness with her group-especially Chin Won.
As they spend more time together, Chin Won starts to notice the quiet girl behind Hana's energetic smile, and for the first time, he finds himself curious about someone. But the closer he gets, the more his past threatens to resurface. And when Hana, unknowingly, crosses an invisible line-one he's spent years guarding-she stirs something in him that he isn't ready to face.
Will Hana be the first person to break through his walls? Or will Chin Won's past be the one thing that keeps them apart?
