(Coming after June 11)
Kim Jiyoon, who recently moved from Busan to Seoul due to her father's job, suffers from Friedreich's Ataxia (FA), a genetically inherited neurodegenerative disorder that permanently damages the nervous system. It's terminal, it doesn't have a cure or treatment, just time, but even that is limited. On her new school, she encounters a boy, a boy she remembers from her childhood.
Yoon Jeonghan was a boy who once carried so much passion for music, especially for piano. He was winning competitions, bringing home trophies and was adored by everyone. But after his mother's death, everything changed. Touching the keys felt wrong, because he couldn't hear his own self playing, or so he thought. He saw piano as just a thing from his past, a thing he's claimed he couldn't play anymore, deep down though, he knew that if he was to play again, he would love it and he wasn't ready to deal with the memories and emotions that'd come with it.
Jiyoon wanted to get close and get to know him, because she had something in mind, something she wanted to accomplish before she left the world. She wanted to be in his life without burdening him, or anyone else with her own problems, so, when she found the opportunity, she told one single lie.
