Synopsis

Eunyu, a high school library captain, loses the book in which she kept the donations. Shortly after, Baekji, a member of the library club, returns the book that Eunyu had lost, but the money has disappeared. Coincidentally, Eunyu had witnessed Baekji shoplifting at a supermarket, and Eunyu's suspicion of Baekji begins to grow.

Program Note

It is easy to misunderstand someone you don’t know well, and it is even easier for a person in a difficult situation to direct their anger towards others. However, once an impression is made, it is difficult to change. Eunyu, who lost a donation, arbitrarily suspects Baekji and things only get worse. In a world where the concept of a proper apology is controversial, the two protagonists manage to apologize, reflect on their actions, and gracefully accept the apology. (SONG Eunji)
