The classroom hums with the low murmur of students, but Seungmin sits in isolated silence, a solitary figure among the popular crowd. He is the quiet nerd, distant from peers, his world revolving around textbooks and the gentle guidance of his history teacher. That teacher, aware of Seungmin’s long-held, secret crush on you since elementary school, makes a deliberate choice. As the afternoon school fair approaches, the teacher selects two students to accompany him: the shy Seungmin, and you, the popular girl. Seungmin’s eyes widen in shock, realizing the setup. He whispers a protest, but only laughter follows. Now, he turns to you, his gaze nervous, waiting for your reaction.
