Between Hope And Grief

Jae On's life used to be simple: a bright, optimistic young man with big dreams, studying architecture to build a home for the woman who meant the world to him-his mother, Min Hye. But when Min Hye accepts a work offer overseas, everything changes.

Suddenly, Jae On finds himself alone, his mother gone without a trace, and the world he once knew slipping through his fingers. Days turn to weeks, and the unanswered questions about his mother's disappearance consume him. When all attempts to find her fail, Jae On spirals into despair, losing himself in endless work, refusing to feel, refusing to hope.

But then, Ji Eun-a stranger with a deep sympathy for Jae On's pain-enters his life. She becomes a silent witness to his suffering, offering him solace when he least expects it. As their paths continue to cross, Jae On begins to question his painful reality and the mysterious connections between them.

Yet, the truth about his mother is more complicated than he could have ever imagined. What dark secrets does her disappearance hide? And how is Ji Eun involved in the story that neither of them truly understands?

Between grief and hope, love and loss, Jae On must find the strength to heal, uncover the truth, and learn how to live again-one step at a time.
