The Thin Line Between || HAOBIN

"I hated you... every damn day. But I hated seeing you with him more. Why do you think that is, Hanbin?"
"...Because it was never hate."

They were enemies. Everyone knew that. But what happens when one stops fighting... and the other can't stop noticing?
Rivals in everything-school, sports, even the stage. They swore they'd never speak, never care.

Then someone new shows up. And everything starts to fall apart.

Or maybe... fall into place?

Why does it hurt to be ignored by someone you hate?

"Say it, Zhang Hao. Say you hated me. Say I meant nothing to you-go on!"
"I couldn't say that even if I wanted to. And God knows, I wanted to!"

Where's the line between hate and something else? And what happens when it's crossed?

"You came all this way just to see the wreck I've become? Congratulations, Hanbin. You win."
"I didn't come to win. I came because I lost something I didn't realize I needed until it was gone."

'The Thin Line Between' - some rivalries burn deeper than you think.
