Description
Lahyun Choi, a home-schooled teen, and a serial painter who's appalled at the thought of selling bits of her soul for $19.99 +tax, is intimately familiar with isolation. Plagued with insomnia and social anxiety, her daily struggles look like choosing between drowning in a nest of blankets while staring at her often blank easel, or braving the five-minute walk to the corner store for some ramen and strawberry milk.
Her sedentary life is shaken up when she finds out that her new tutor, Chanyeol, the son of a friend, is going to watch over her while her dad goes on a business trip. In general, people make Lahyun want to dive out of a ten-story building. But, Chanyeol seems different in ways Lahyun can’t pinpoint. The thing is, he’s human; and Lahyun is some mix of human and anxious beast born by a runaway ghost. She spends some of her time with her face pressed against the portal to her backyard, hoping her red-eyed runaway will return to her, and dreading the day she does.
