The Reason Behind Jung Eun Hui's Indifference
Growing up poor, Jung Eun Hui feels grateful for having a friend like Go Mi Ran. She's rich, perfect and loyal.
Go Mi Ran has always saved her from the bullies in school. She also gives her food to eat, easing the hunger Jung Eun Hui feels.
However, there was a time that Go Mi Ran was the one who humiliated her best friend in front of the class, calling her names like "moocher" and "leech."
Although hurt, Jung Eun Hui decided not to dwell on it. She even discarded it from her mind.
But when Go Mi Ran pranked her, she considered it as a last straw. The former joked around about death and suicide that Jung Eun Hui immediately ran from Jeju to Seoul.
At Go Mi Ran's apartment, Jung Eun Hui was put in the spotlight as her best friend's new friend laugh at her after being called Go Mi Ran's "doormat."
