Unfinished Ties

Seukryu and Seunghyo were childhood best friends, but their bond blurred into a "what are we?" situation throughout high school and into their first year of college. Seukryu received a full-ride scholarship to Berkeley and left for the U.S. before Seunghyo could confess his feelings. He worked part-time jobs, saving up to visit her in her fourth year.
When Seunghyo finally arrived, he brought nostalgic gifts from home-among the things were her favorite comics and a heated blanket. However, a night of drinking led to an unexpected encounter, leaving them both waking up to an irreversible change. The morning after, a message on Seukryu's phone hinted at a date with another man. Heartbroken, Seunghyo left without hearing her explanation, ignoring all her attempts to reach him afterward.
Unbeknownst to him, Seukryu was pregnant. Determined to succeed, she accepted a job offer and kept the child, with her best friend Mouem as her only confidante. Mouem helped her hide the pregnancy from both their families by signing up for a paramedic certification in the US to cover up the reason for her departure. Years passed. Seukryu built a life, even finding love again with a man who accepted her daughter. But when her company restructured and her landlord sold her home, cracks formed in her relationship. Her growing insecurities and joblessness strained things to the point of no return. After a bitter argument, she broke off the engagement. Left with no choice, she returned home, unaware that the past she had buried was about to surface once more.
