Lee Minho. --&

Minho is a Catholic boy who never studied outside of home, and now at 16, he's entering high school for the first time. He's quite nerdy and quiet, so even though he's handsome, no one seems to want to approach him, except for Jisung. Jisung is a distracted boy who never pays attention in class; there are even rumors that he's gay, so the teachers at that conservative school don't treat him very well... in fact, he doesn't have many friends either, but the ones he has, truly appreciate him. The point is, during recess, Jisung confidently approached Minho. "What's your name? You know, I have a kitten, and I'm sure you look a lot like him. Where are you from? Did you know I was born in London? Oh, but I'm Korean, and it's a shame, I wish I were from England, even though I have the accent! My friends say that when I speak English, I sound like Harry Styles, how crazy! Do you know him? He's a pretty cool guy, I'd like to be like him someday." That day, Minho couldn't stop smiling. That talkative, silly boy amused him for a long time, really. Since then, Minho and Jisung have been good friends, and for the first time, Minho feels accepted. Jisung is always thinking of him, always talking to him, always... everything. His mother, who is also Catholic and extremely conservative, warned him not to hang out with unruly kids, but Jisung, for him, is the exception. The boy is always crying, always complaining about something, swearing, getting along badly with everyone, not doing his homework, and so clueless he doesn't notice anything, but even so, Minho enjoys being with him. In fact, Minho has been copying some of Jisung's habits, which occasionally leave his mother puzzled... Today, Jisung and Minho skipped class to go to the library so they could talk comfortably. They sat on the floor and began to chat. "Jisung-ah. Is... is it true what they say? That... that you like boys?" Minho asked, looking him in the eyes.
