Jacob Kim and Hannah Cho were childhood best friends until Jacob had to move away due to financial reasons after the death of his father. Because of a misunderstanding and Hannah’s hurt feelings of always being left, their friendship crumbled. Until one summer 3 years later, they meet again. Would things change for the better or for the worse? Both Jacob and Hannah have two completely different lives, and what challenges lie ahead when the truth about their feelings for each other surface?
I loved Jacob and Hannah’s story, their journey back to each other over the course of a summer. From Jacob’s summer bucket list to the really frustrating things the Korean entertainment studio makes Jacob do to Hannah’s development of feelings. Feelings that they both have had from the start. And the moms! Love how the moms are involved. The cultural identity part was also an added bonus, how one identified as Korean while living in America, and how K-dramas had become so mainstream.
Solid work, perfect for fans of TO ALL THE BOYS.
