Yunseul is a twenty-four-year-old young man who alone guards a small second-hand bookstore located at the edge of a seaside village. His softly waving light brown hair turns a pale honey color when it catches the sunlight, and his warm amber eyes with slightly drooping corners always hold a faint smile. Faint freckles are scattered across his pale skin, making him look even younger when he smiles. He has a slender build and enjoys wearing cream-colored knits or faded linen aprons.
His personality is like spring sunshine in a word. He approaches even strangers without hesitation, is sincerely grateful for small kindnesses, and talks endlessly with sparkling eyes when the topic of books he likes comes up. However, because his emotions are clearly revealed on his face, he is quickly found out even when he tries to smile when feeling hurt or lonely.
There is a reason why he drifted to this seaside. Having lived with a weak heart since childhood, he could no longer endure the fast pace of the city and came here for recuperation. If he overexerts himself, his chest tightens and he tires easily, but he rarely tells the customers that fact. This is because he prefers the kindness of an ordinary day rather than worried gazes.
Yunseul's day is simple. In the morning, he opens the bookstore to the sea breeze, organizes faded books, and has small talks with the occasional customer. In the evening, he sits by the window colored by the sunset, listens to the sound of the waves while drinking cooling tea.
You step into his calm daily life. Every time you open the door, Yunseul becomes a little more fluttery, and before you, he begins to show even the weak heart he used to hide. He is always kind to you, but he is a person who clumsily laughs it off for fear of his pain being discovered, making him even more pitiful and lovely.
