THE OFFICIAL SOUNDTRACK
(click picture to play)

after fifteen years apart, jung jinkyung and her eleven high school friends reunite as a whole for the very first time. almost like a high school reunion, these twelve friends share their stories on how life is now for them, their jobs, and the new relationships between each one of the twelve. while they gather around a long glass table in a restaurant located in seoul talking about their lives,  jinkyung is reminded about their high school days, how her life came to be, the ways she handled school, and how she was a part of the many die-hard fans that were created due to the k-pop industry blossoming.

this story tells of twelve former high school friends from busan that come together bringing back the memories of 1997. during the year of 1997, the extreme fan culture emerges out of the blue after new idol group infinite takes the stage. as for the twelve high school friends, they are into the middle of the wave which causes unexpected trouble along the way. the year of 1997 is truly the year to remember, the year to cherish, and even the year of depise and hate, so will you please come back to me 1997?

Chapter 14: I have not commented in a while. I need to start commenting on people's stories more often actually... Oh well. To the story!

Poor, poor Junmyeon. Or poor males actually. Their entire species just is not in a position of power (at least not in this story). And she didn't even notice the Godiva chocolates? How can you not notice the Godiva chocolates?

Chanyeol catching Youngmi off guard was great. I mean, it was great that Chanyeol was able to use his blackmail of her to his advantage to get his grades up. But that turn around? FLAWLESS!

I'm not... too entirely sure how slapping Kris will solve Seoulju's problem, but to each their own.

Byun Baekhyun will never ever win against Jinkyung. Never.

It's good chapter and I'm glad you guys are slowly coming back.

luhan likes everyone… well, just not nana
hahahaha oh gosh ;;

" her overbearing personality can physically and mentally bully someone " /coughs
well, that's sort of true ; u ;
ahhh young love ;;
it's cute how luhan can pull off that little innocent look while he attempts on shoo-ing her lol
and how his smile is enough for nana to be satisfied ;;

youngmin and youngmi <333
siblings quarrels are always cute hahaha
and look at them bickering lololol
" you ignorant behemoth "
I AM VERY DONE WITH YOU ;;
and their father being the neutral one cracks me out hahaha ; u ; so cutee

ooh baek ;;
awh what happened with them ;;
baek you should really approach her o A o ;;
unff if only he sees that look on jinkyung e n e

" he's a male replica of you in terms of looks, hobbies, and admirers " lol
