43 parts Ongoing Ji Ha-na thought she knew how the story ended. After all, she'd read it countless times - Kim Taehyung and Kim Yeon-ha, the destined lovers, their "happily ever after" sealed under the golden sunset of the campus courtyard. It was perfect, just as the writer promised.
But reality - or whatever strange twist of fate had brought her into the pages of her favorite novel - turned out to be less kind. Because behind that ending, hidden in silence, was Park Jimin's death.
Her favorite.
Her soft-hearted second lead who smiled even when his heart bled, who stayed loyal even as his place was stolen.
The cruelest part was that she hadn't known. The novel she loved so much never mentioned this. She thought he had simply walked away into the horizon, bruised but alive. But here, in this living, breathing world, she had seen it: his car, the rain, the crash... the way he never woke up.
She cried for days, until fate threw her one more miracle.
She opened her eyes one morning and found herself back at the courtyard, the day of the "ending." Yeon-ha was confessing, Taehyung was smiling, and life was moving exactly as the novel dictated. Except Ha-na knew what came next.
This time, she wouldn't stay in the background. This time, she would fight for him.
