How many of us remember what our dreams were when we were children? What our hopes and aspirations were?
How many of us grew up and realised that all the wonderous, innocent dreams that we had were probably not going to come true.

How many of us spent all of our lives unable to express ourselves and love who we wanted, openly.
This drama is about five such high school friends who also had dreams and goals but were unable to complete them.
This is a story of second chances,
of being able to love whoever you want,

Alright, so I went about searching, and I couldn't — for the life of me — find the plot description from any source.
Therefore, please bear with me and my attempt at explaining what I am getting from this drama.
So basically, they might be friends while growing up. They might be each other's first love. Then some shit happens, and it turns the ML (Peun) vindictive and hateful towards the FL (Chippy) and/or her family.
However, like with every other slap-kiss lakorn on the face of this planet, the ML can not discard his love and desire for the object of his hatred, the FL.
And so continues a cycle filled with angst, tears, lots of screaming, bone-restructuring slaps, lip-bruising kisses, and tonne loads of actions that might induce 1K word essays in the comment section of this drama's MDL page if it manages to catch the hype.
Thank you.
