They met during the most confusing and painful time of their youth, and even now that they are adults, they have always been by each other's side. Their friendship was strong and stood the test of time like armor. But underneath that thick armor, Ji Sunwook nurtured a love that was not just friendship. Driven by the desperation to leave no evidence as the sole driving force behind his unrequited love.... more>>

He had thought he could hide it for the rest of his life, until Lee Jihoon asked in the fall of his twenty-nine.

"Don't you think it's even stranger that I've never heard you talk about women you've dated all this while?"

Realizing that he could no longer hide it, Ji Sunwook meekly confessed that he was dating a man and finally put an end to their relationship with the confession he had been putting off.

Lee Jihoon, who came to catch Ji Sunwook, denied that conclusion. He said that Ji Sunwook didn't love him, so this couldn't be the end for them. Not wanting to believe it, he blocked Ji Sunwook’s way out saying he would prove it.

"What kind of coward abandons the one he loves and then runs away?"

Guided by Lee Jihoon's firm hand, the two stood on a road they had never been on before. Only when standing at the edge of friendship from which no one can retreat did they realize that they were facing something that made them uncertain whether they were proving that it was love or proving that it was not. <<less
