A Midsummer Scandal
íìŹëŠì ì€ìșë€Synopsis
Seventeen-year-old Yeoreum firmly believed that coincidences were actually fate. After transferring schools, she met Hyunho again and began to nurture feelings of first love.
But Yeoreumâs first love was far from smooth.
Hyunho seemed to have feelings for her too, yet his ambiguous attitude often left her hurt. Still, with just one smile from him, Yeoreumâs heart would melt again and again.
But isnât it said that first loves never come true?
Deeply disappointed and wounded by Hyunho, Yeoreum left Korea. She vowed never to remember him, never to linger on their memories.
.

Years later, Yeoreum thought she would never cross paths with Hyunho againâwho had since become a huge star. But on her very first day back in Korea, she ran into him.
And as if fate were playing tricks, they even lived in the same apartment building.
Whatâs more, Hyunho recognized her instantly and approached her without hesitation.
âI donât want to be just friends with you.â
âEven if I try really hard to win you over?â
ââŠYeah.â
âFive seconds.â
ââŠWhat?â
âThatâs how long you hesitated. Thatâs enough for me. Iâll come closer. You donât have to do anythingâjust stay still. Iâll take care of the rest.â
Could Yeoreum really trust Hyunho, who said he didnât want to let her go again? She wanted to believe himâmore and more with each passing moment.
Turning him away, when he looked at her with such desperate eyes, was impossibly hard.
She had promised herself countless times that she wouldnât be swayed by him anymore.
But oh, what should she do?
