Daoun Jung is the pretty new teacher in school. Right away, she's hit on by senior student Ryumin, a troubled young man repeating his senior year. Also attracted to Daoun is Hyunwoo, a fellow teacher who developed a secret crush on Dauon when they were both classmates.

I didn't like this manga at first. Given the almost daily scandals of inappropriate student/teacher relationships, the premise of this made me uneasy, although both student and teacher are clearly of age.

On a second read-through, I found it more intriguing and subtle, particularly with the character of Ryumin. I found a greater depth to him than I initially thought.
