Ji-eun has spent years surviving behind closed doors, keeping her head down at school and hiding every scar with a quiet smile. Hyun-tak - the loudmouthed, warm-hearted "basketball rookie" who always seems to find trouble - was supposed to be just another classmate.
But late-night games and whispered phone calls turn into small acts of care. A joke, a shoulder to lean on, a hand she doesn't realise she's still holding. As they're pulled deeper into Si-eun's world of union thugs, missing friends and street fights, Ji-eun starts to feel something she's never allowed herself before: safety. And maybe, if she's brave enough, love.
