Withered Memories
Description
Eight years have passed since he got accepted into his dream university, seven years since he last stepped on Korean soil. After the untimely death of his grandmother, Baek Hyun made a decision which changed everyone's lives. Now years later, he finally decides to come back home, ready to pick up the broken pieces he once left behind.
Characters:
Hwang Baek Hyun- In a fit of frustration, Baek Hyun took the opportunity to escape his sadness by accepting an overseas scholarship grant during the last months of his freshman year. As years go by, he slowly started to question whether he made the right decision. No longer the hot-tempered hooligan he once was (except on rare occasions), he now seeks to repair the relationships he treasured and start anew, and maybe, even find love.
Gil Pul-ip - Years later, Pul-ip is now a freelance photographer who hopes to make it big as a renowned photojournalist. Success isn't exactly as easy as they come, and these days, she makes the ends meet by sidelining as a photographer to the stars (aka, a paparazzi).
Oh Bong Goo- Finally fulfilling his dream of becoming a veterinarian, he now runs a small animal clinic by day, and their family's BBQ restaurant by night. Despite what everyone has been through, Bong Goo's jolly personality always shines through everything, ultimately keeping their group from completely crumbling after all these years.
Nah Hyun Jung - Now an accomplished painter in her own right, gone is the cute and bubbly Hyun Jung that everyone knew back in high school. In its place, a graceful and sophisticated young woman now stands, more beautiful (and elusive) than ever. As the current darling of the Korean press, she is almost always seen safely protected in the arms of...
Hong Chan Doo- Korea's current 'It' star. Having worked his way up from being a nobody in the K-Pop industry, Chan Doo is now enjoying his career as one of the hottest and most sought-after artists in the entertainment industry. But even though he may be (unwittingly) charming ladies left and right with his smile, there is still only one person who truly holds his heart.
Foreword
"This isn't the right way to deal with this.... This isn't right...."
"I didn't come here to discuss with you. I came here to say goodbye."
"Baek Hyun-ah, kajima."
"There's nothing left for me here."
"Nothing left for you?! What about us? What about your friends? We've all come so far. You have come so far. You can't throw it all away now."
"You don't understand! How could - "
"No, I perfectly understand. You're not the only one who has been abandoned, but you're the only one who's trying to run away."
"...."
"Jebal, Baek Hyun-ah. Don't do this. Don't walk away like this. You can't - "
"Run away with me...."

Author's Notes:
Hello, nice to meet you all. :) Welcome to my first story here in AsianFanfics. I'm not really a grammar and spelling Nazi, but I do check my works as much as possible. But if ever you see any mistakes, it's okay to point them out. Can't say anything much, other than I'm a big Jiyeon fan, and absolutely loved God of Study. Not enough fics are written about the show, so I thought I might as well try and write one.
Let me just warn you, this story will deviate from the lightheartedness of the original series and will hence delve into the more serious side of things. Therefore, please expect angst, brooding, and even more drama to come your way.
