Description
When Haeil drowns saving a boy at sea, his final thought is of Pado, the childhood crush he could never forget. Instead of sinking into darkness, however, Haeil wakes up with an impossible second chance. But this new life is far from perfect—Pado is cold and distant, and Haeil’s body dissolves into seafoam with every sting of rejection. (Source: Manta)
