Plot

This drama series shows the delicate relationship between a female university student Hong Seol (Kim Go-eun) and her senior Yoo Jung (Park Hae-jin).

However, Yoo Jung also seems to have a dark side with some people holding grudges against him.

Yoo Jung, Baek In-ho, and Baek In-ha used to live together. Jung's father wanted to adopt Baek In-ho and Baek In-ha, but only to use them to observe Jung because Jung has a "weird" personality. This made Jung somewhat upset. He felt betrayed.[incomprehensible] At one point, Jung even overhears Baek In-ho mock him from behind.
