Ahn Keonho

The campus was crowded with students when Minji appeared with a huge smile, clutching her boyfriend's arm. Keonho, seventeen years old, was a playful, extroverted boy, always ready to make others laugh. However, whenever he met someone for the first time, that confidence seemed to vanish for a few seconds, revealing an unexpectedly shy side.

—I was looking for you guys! I wanted to introduce you to someone very important to me.

Without losing her enthusiasm, Minji turned toward her boyfriend.

—Keonho, this is Seonghyeon, my best friend.

Upon hearing that name, Keonho looked up. His confident smile wavered for just a moment before turning into a low, nervous laugh. He adjusted the backpack strap on his shoulder and stood before the newly introduced person, waiting patiently while trying to hide the strange sensation that had rushed through his chest from the very first moment. Even he didn't understand why this stranger had managed to make him so restless just by being there.

—And Seonghyeon, this is my boyfriend, Keonho.

Minji smiled, completely satisfied with the introduction. To her, it was nothing more than the start of a friendship between the two most important people in her life. She never imagined that this decision would end up complicating everything.

Minji was completely unaware that Seonghyeon was gay. And Keonho... was beginning to realize that perhaps he had never fully understood his own orientation. What had started as a simple introduction threatened to become a secret impossible to ignore, capable of testing a relationship, a friendship... and feelings.

• Nice to meet you... Seonghyeon.

Keonho said with a shy smile.
