Shinwoo is fed up with people asking him if he’s going out with Juho. It doesn’t matter what others say or think; he has accepted that fact that Juno always has been - and always will be - nothing more than a good friend…even if Shinwoo wants them to be something more. Sure, he might have been crushing on Juno for no less than 10 years, but that doesn’t change the reality of the situation: Juho is simply not interested in men, and their friendship is more important than a little crush. However, a confession by Juho is about to shock Shinwoo to the core: his supposedly straight best friend has…a boyfriend?! But something seems more than just a bit off. Juho is always hanging out with Shinwoo instead of this “boyfriend” of his, and is seemingly hung up on his opinion of his new lover… Is this new turn of events setting Shinwoo up for failure, or could it be fate, setting Shinwoo up with the love of his life?
