Shinyerim liked Kim Donghu.
Just as any teenage girl’s heart would. A guy who's handso, athletic, and smart naturally draws attention.
But there was a specific mont that made Shin Yerim truly fall for Kim Donghu.
One day, unexpectedly.
She noticed Minhyuk, who used to act like a delinquent, studying for his future. And on that sa day, she saw Kangshik, who usually had a gloomy expression, smiling. It struck her that all of this was possible because Kim Donghu was around.
"When people are by your side, they’re happy."
That conclusion ca to her suddenly, like a dandelion seed floating on the wind.
Just as a major discovery might erge from a mont of inspiration, Shin Yerim found herself feeling stable just by being near Kim Donghu.
There was a brief period during her first year of middle school when she’d hung around troublemakers to avoid being ostracized.
"What was I even doing?"
Even though they were only friends in na, she had sought stability there. Now, she felt embarrassed by it.
Shin Yerim felt at ease when she was with Kim Donghu. It wasn't just his looks; it was as if his very presence put people at ease.
And yet, a part of her felt uneasy.
"Did I end up liking soone too famous?"
Kim Donghu was a celebrity.
Not just any celebrity—he held the title of the "National Crown Prince," with an impressive resu that didn’t need further explanation.
For now, they could interact because they attended the sa school, but once they graduated, even catching a glimpse of him would beco difficult.
"After that, we'd probably just exchange a few ssages on KakaoTalk, at most."
She didn’t want that future. She couldn’t bear the thought of losing this precious safe haven due to external circumstances.
So, she decided on modeling.
For so reason, she felt she could do it well; her talents would eventually shine like a needle poking through a pouch. Shin Yerim found herself naturally leaning toward becoming a model.
Besides…
"I believe you'd be a fantastic model."
"Huh?"
"I an, you once ntioned wanting to try modeling, and I thought you'd be really good at it."
"How good do you think? Enough to stand next to you?"
"Yeah, I guess so."
His encouragent ignited her desire to pursue modeling. But there was a problem—she didn’t know how to start.
Should she enroll in an academy? Or maybe try out for auditions? Where to begin?
Navigating through an endless sea of information to find what she needed was overwhelming.
And just as she was hesitating to ask her parents for support…
"Would you like to try modeling at our agency?"
Kim Donghu extended a hand to her.
At that mont, Shin Yerim thought, "What’s up with this guy?"
Was it okay for soone to be this likable? How could anyone be so pure-hearted?
She grew curious. He must have had countless opportunities to beco arrogant. How could he remain as pure as he was in the beginning?
"Is it because he’s risen above everyone else without getting hurt?"
Or…
"Is it that he keeps his purity despite being hurt so much?"
As her thoughts reached that point, only one word filled her mind.
"I want him."
She wanted him so much it drove her mad. She felt a powerful desire and impulse to have her life begin and end with Kim Donghu.
So, she planned her next move.
After school in July, she called Kim Donghu to an empty classroom.
Waiting for Kim Donghu, Shin Yerim felt a strange sensation.
"He actually ca when I called."
It was surreal, as if it were all a dream, that an actor known as the National Crown Prince would co to an empty classroom just because of a few KakaoTalk ssages.
