chapter 1

Jimin is a dedicated high school student whose heart races for basketball, but his parents envision a future where he becomes a doctor. As he buries himself in textbooks and study notes, he often glances at his neglected basketball, a painful reminder of the dreams he has set aside. The pressure from his parents weighs heavily on him, and he feels trapped between his loyalty to their aspirations and his own unfulfilled passion. In the end, Jimin excels in his studies, fulfilling his parents' dream of a medical career, but the joy of the game remains a distant memory, leaving him to grapple with the bittersweet reality of a life lived for others, rather than himself.
