somewhere between then and now

Somewhere Between Then and Now

Jay's life has always been planned.

Every goal mapped out. Every decision carefully calculated. Every day following the same routine.

Then, on a whim he still doesn't understand, he signs up for a college trekking trip.

Three days.

One mountain.

And six strangers who are about to turn his world upside down.

Among them is Heeseung-the adventurous, free-spirited boy who lives for the moment and never stays in one place for too long. Where Jay sees certainty, Heeseung sees possibilities. Where Jay follows plans, Heeseung follows the horizon.

What begins as a simple trip soon becomes the start of unforgettable friendships, reckless adventures, late-night conversations, and feelings neither of them expected.

But growing up means choosing different paths.

Years later, after time, distance, and unsaid goodbyes pull them apart, an unexpected reunion forces them to face the memories they left behindand the people they never truly forgot.

A story about friendship, first love, growing up, and discovering that sometimes the people who change your life the most are the ones you never planned to meet.
