Of Judgmental Stares, Fake Masks and Tender Hearts
Ten has always thought his life, particularly during high school, will always be the same—same people, same routine, same drama, same dreams—and stays like that right until the very end. Well, living in a small town called Yeongsan on the outskirts of Busan, things barely change.Yeongsan is small, quiet and peaceful. People knows each other and always knows what’s up—a thing that’s both blessing and a curse—some people from big cities may call this town boring, they’re not entirely wrong, but at least it’s easier to find calm and peace here, where the trees grow tall and strong and form big, enchanting forest rather than Seoul’s concrete jungle.So, Ten thought his life would stay the same. He’d go to Yeongsang Public School, join the basketball team, hanging out with Johnny, Seungwan and Taeyong after school in the diner or venturing the forests after school.Well, he was wrong and Ten learned not to predict the future, because even the most constant beat can always change.Oh, yes, things changes when she came around.Kang Seulgi.The blonde-haired girl came—no, wait, scratch that.The blonde-haired girl crashed into Yeongsan on Ten’s second year in high school and instantly became the talk of the town.Kang Seulgi, daughter of Kang Seokwoo and Kim Taeyeon, the owner of a corporation called Kang & Jung Co. a very large and successful biotech company in Seoul.
