Han Yeoreum

Yeojoon Lee was the short track skating athlete, but he was the eight place of the team, so he had no chance to become the Korean national team member for the upcoming Olympic. However, for some reason, there was an empty place for a national team member, so he became the member officially ‘by chance’. Then, Yeojoon met Jihoon Nam, who was the top of the short track skating in Korea, and they had become roommates, which was the starting point that they get to know each other. As they spend time together for the training, they found that they had emotions to each other, and soon, they became couple in the end. For more, Jihoon became two times Olympic gold medalist for the short skating, and Yeojoon got the bronze medal for the first time.

Every time I took a shower inside my room, my ears perked up at the sound of people outside. Even the slightest loud noise sent my heart pounding. I was in a hurry to sharpen the blades of my skates before Jihoon came back to see that I’d cut my finger. My index finger was badly cut so that it bled a great deal, but I ended up falling asleep without receiving any treatment.


All throughout training, I stuck to Seonho and refused to look at Jihoon Nam. I even tried sleeping in Seonho’s room but gave up because I was scared of the head coach. In many ways, my actions were far from calm and nonchalant. But there was no other option. 


My body seemed to move on its own whenever Jihoon appeared even if I attempted to act naturally.
