If We Had Met a Little Later

If We Had Met a Little Later
by Seo Hae-rin (서해린)
Some connections don't begin with meeting someone in person.
Some begin with a timestamp.
2:17 A.M.
That was the moment she found him-an anonymous account buried in silence, existing like it had been waiting for her to notice it.
Yoo Seo-yun was sixteen, living an ordinary life in Busan that felt anything but ordinary at night. She overthought everything she couldn't explain and felt everything she tried to ignore.
Han Min-jun was never supposed to be part of her world. Older. Distant. Real life happening somewhere else in Seoul.
They were not meant to cross paths.
But they did-once.
And that was enough to change everything.
Because some people don't stay in your life.
They stay in your time.
"2:17 A.M. is not when we talk.
It's when we started existing to each other."
A slow-burn emotional web novel about timing, anonymity, and the kind of love that feels like it arrived... slightly too early or too late.
If we're honest, this is:
not a love story that ends in togetherness
but one that begins with recognition and ends with silence
