Bomi Choi/Synopsis

## Season 1

Bomi used to protect him when he was younger, and he fell in love with her. However he never told her his feelings because he felt he was unworthy of her. However, he agreed to do his best at whatever he did, and Bomi promised the same.

Bomi's first meeting with Hobin happened 3 years before the main story. Her personality used to be different, she was obsessed with becoming a grown up, likely influenced by her mother. She rejected a guy older than her because he was "too childish for her", used big words to seem more intelligent, claimed that dating is childish and that she's more interested in researching real estate. When her father tried to tell her that it's okay for kids to be kids, she felt personally attacked and insisted that she's a grown up, being ungrateful and saying that she would move out as soon as possible to stay away from him.
Hobin, who had been listening to the whole conversation walks in and sticks his booger on her forehead, which angers her even more and yells at him to grow up. Bomi is so angry that she decides to follow him for the whole day to get an apology from him. But she starts to pity him around the end of the day because he is working 9 part time jobs to support his mother.
The next day, Hobin finally gets a break and Bomi gets her chance to ask him for an apology. Instead, Hobin asks her if she has apologized to her dad, to which she responds in anger, that it's none of his business. Hobin starts telling her that she's going to regret all the mean things she said to him, referencing that he has done the same and now regrets it. For once, Bomi listens and says that he acts as if he's an adult, even though he's a kid. He tells her that growing up was not a choice for him, he wishes that nobody had to grow up so they could avoid all pain and hardship.
The next time she goes to see him, Hobin is not at the hospital. The nurse tells her that his mother got discharged and he left early. Bomi starts to realize that he may have been her "first love" even though the two only had one short conversation.
Three years later, Bomi spots Hobin working at McDonald's and decides to work there just to get closer to him.
