Created by Lee Yoon-jung
On tvN
A campus romance-drama centered on the entanglement between two contrasting college students, balancing comedic moments with the tension of unequal power dynamics and hidden depths.
Hong Seol and Yoo Jung attend the same college, but they couldn't be more different. Hong Seol is a poor, unpopular student with no money, while Yoo Jung is rich, well-liked, extremely smart, and popular. Hong Seol just wants to get through her college career quietly, but finds herself getting caught up in whatever Yoo Jung drags her into. Can Hong Seol break away, or will she continue to be the only person who sees Yoo Jung's true self?
