Since Kang Eun Ha was little, becoming a teacher has been her dream. She studied by herself and did not even attend a cram school. She studied hard just to pass the entrance exam, and that is how she became a student at her dream university. But Kang Eun Ha met a guy who she did not think had the same goals as her.
She could not believe her eyes as Ha Seung Min was popular in school for being a bully, and here he had completely flipped. He dressed like a typical nerd, and his style had changed completely.
Soon enough, Kang Eun Ha realizes then and there that this boy could have changed on the outside, but he is still the same on the inside. Kang Eun Ha has always been sensitive to talks about Ha Seung Min. She can not help but be like that.
Although they may not be close anymore, they were both childhood friends as well as her first love. Come along to know more and find out how Kang Eun Ha navigates through this new chapter of her life.
Recap
We previously saw that Hee Joo confesses and tells Ha Seung Min that he is the most important person to her right now. Confused and embarrassed, she decides to just tell him that she loves him. She instantly tells Ha Seung Min not to give an answer right away and that she will be fine even if he rejects her.
We all know that Hee Joo was saying such things just to protect herself. Kang Eun Ha had told Hee Joo that Ha Seung Min was a delinquent before and that was one reason she had assumed that he would be interested in dating and would have dating experience as well. But she is shocked to know that he has no experience at all.
Ha Seung Min apologizes to Hee Joo first and then tells her that he will not be able to date her. He tells her that he already likes someone else. On hearing that, Hee Joo just gets up and walks away.
Ha Seung Min then goes ahead to meet Kang Eun Ha at the library. He finds a weird guy trying to open Kang Eun Ha’s phone while she is away. Just as he is about to catch this phone thief, the thief runs away after throwing Kang Eun Ha’s phone in the air. Unfortunately, Ha Seung Min misses to catch it.
What To Expect From The Upcoming Chapter?
In the aftermath of Ha Seung Min’s revelation and Hee Joo’s departure, tension may linger between them, creating an emotional strain. Hee Joo might grapple with the rejection and reassess her feelings, while Ha Seung Min may find himself torn between the person he likes and the consequences of his honesty.
As for the mysterious incident with Kang Eun Ha’s phone, this could lead to an unexpected connection between Ha Seung Min and Kang Eun Ha. The pursuit of the phone thief might become a shared goal, providing an opportunity for them to bond and potentially discover common interests.
Meanwhile, Hee Joo might seek solace in her friends or find a way to navigate her emotions independently. The story may take unexpected turns as the characters navigate the complexities of their relationships and confront the challenges that arise from their confessions and the mysterious phone incident.
