    Lino's life turned upside down at 19 years old. His parents died in a car accident and he was granted custody of his five year old brother. He worked at an old diner as a cook, working paycheck to paycheck to make ends meet. He was going through the motions, not truly living, until he met Jisung.

    Jisung helps Lino watch Haku, his little brother, while Lino works. But when the opportunity arises for Lino to follow his dreams and become a sous chef to none other than Gordon Ramsay comes up, he has to make a decision. Attend the rigorous four week course, risking everything he's worked for to provide for his brother, or give up his dream and continue to take the safe route.

    Lino wrestles with the inner turmoil that crowds his head while falling in love with his best friend.

    Summary

    “Have you ever heard about the origami hearts tradition in the hospital?”

    Taking the heart, the child excitedly inspected it, nodding in glee. “Yes! My mama told me that when someone leaves the hospital to go to heaven, we all fold a paper heart for them! Like this, like this!”

    “That’s right,” chuckled Soobin. “But do you know how it started? It started here, in this room. From a boy who used to fold a paper heart every day for his lost love, hoping each one he makes will take him closer to the day those eyes would open again.”

    "Unfortunately for him, the day never came."

    In other words, a hopeless love story of two childhood best friends who didn't realise what it meant to have each other until it was too late; compiled of yearning, loss, forlorn hope, unrequited love, and every tragedy in between.
