Features: Korea's annual pure and romantic love novel, capturing the feelings of stylish Korean youth, a classic of alternative love. A mischievous boy VS a pure-hearted girl. Oh my, such an interesting love war! A bumpy, sweet, funny, and innocent romance! He has golden-brown hair, wears bracelets and ear piercings, and is a dazzling rebel; she is out of the world, only knows to indulge in manga creation, so innocent that she gets leg spasms at the mere thought of a kiss. He's a cold-faced, unconventional teenager, while she's a tomboy who loves to fight. A pair of water and fire opposites tells a shocking love story.
Rong Xi is a mangaka, 28 years old, and very pure, conservative, and devoted in love. She has always hidden her true self, giving the impression of being unkempt, like a "dinosaur." But behind those big glasses lies a pretty face. She is gentle and kind, a very lovable woman. Shan Yu is a 22-year-old young man. He has golden hair, wears strange clothes, and appears cold as water, but his inner world is fiery. In the eyes of others, he's a "bad boy," but he has a charming appearance and personality that can "bewitch people." On the surface, he seems carefree and self-willed, but he is actually a devoted and kind-hearted man in love.
When Shan Yu saw Rong Xi stepping out of the bathroom with her long hair flowing, the cigarette he was holding almost fell to the ground. Her waist-length hair dripped with water, contrasting sharply with her delicate, fair skin. A pure beauty had suddenly appeared—where had that intimidating woman gone just moments ago? If Shan Yu hadn't personally seen Rong Xi enter the bathroom, he would never have imagined that the messy woman he'd just seen and this fresh beauty could be the same person. Although women look their best after a bath, and this transformation is natural, how could Rong Xi's change be so drastic?
After taking off her thick glasses, Rong Xi's eyes were clear and transparent, like the autumn sky. At that moment, she looked at Shan Yu with those clear eyes, and as his gaze met hers, his heart raced uncontrollably. The woman's face, soft and pale, drew closer to his nose, and he couldn't help but want to touch her face and kiss her lips.
The mangaka Rong Xi was a shut-in "workaholic," and her emotional loss made her unkempt, losing her feminine grace. One day, her first love, Zhen Yu, brought his runaway brother, Shan Yu, to her place, asking for her help. From then on, Rong Xi's routine was completely disrupted. She and Shan Yu were like oil and water, constantly clashing, either glaring at each other or fighting. Especially Shan Yu's strange behavior—he refused to speak and communicated through writing—made Rong Xi both curious and annoyed. Gradually, as they interacted and collided, a subtle bond grew between them. However, due to misunderstandings, they parted ways. Heartbroken and desperate, Shan Yu left for Japan. Rong Xi used drawing as a way to cope with her longing, and her manga stories, based on Shan Yu, became wildly popular with readers, who loved this handsome, cool, and slightly rebellious guy.
By chance, Rong Xi went to Japan for a business trip and met him racing through the streets of Tokyo. Their feelings reignited, and they fell into an earth-shattering love.
