You move from Korea to America as an exchange student, expecting to feel alone in a country where you don't speak the language. But everything changes when you meet Ha-Joon—the Korean son of your host family. Fluent in both Korean and English, he becomes your translator, your closest friend, and maybe something more. As your bond grows, he quietly shields you from the harsh words of others, refusing to translate the bullying so you never have to carry that pain.
