A Simple Friends to Lover's Romance!!
I’m not sure what’s more heart-fluttering—falling in love or being in love, especially when being in love becomes the reason you fall.
That’s exactly what happens to U Hyeon (Kim Ji Oh), the protagonist of Heart Stain, a new Korean BL drama. He’s a student who finds himself drawn to his kind and attentive teacher, Mr. Nam. A crush on a teacher isn’t unusual, but for U Hyeon, the weight of his feelings is compounded by the fact that he’s a male student in love with a male teacher. Youth is a time of heightened emotions, where self-discovery and unspoken desires make love feel all the more intense—especially when it’s unrequited.
But Heart Stain doesn’t just dwell on one-sided love. It complicates things further when U Hyeon’s best friend, Park Doha (Ha Min), discovers his secret. Doha’s reaction isn’t rooted in shock or disapproval but in something far more painful—his own hidden feelings for U Hyeon. What unfolds is a delicate push and pull of emotions as the two friends navigate love, longing, and the realization that the line between friendship and something more isn’t as clear as they once thought.
