Jin-young is a fourth-year student in primary school and is so-called quite a model student.
Hyun-ji who is a friend of her mom is staying at their house with them. Jin-young falls in love with her at the first sight. She gets confused by her feelings about Hyun-ji, and by whether or not her love is proper.
In the end, she decides to tell Hyun-ji how she's feeling.
This is a heart-warming 'growing-up' story about a little girl who happens to experience an early sexual identity crisis.
