Two Weeks and Counting

The oppressive heat of summer hangs heavy over the city as university student Kim Ki-Beom trudges home, only to find an unexpected visitor loitering outside his door—a runaway high school girl named Su-Hyeon. His instincts as a responsible adult kick in immediately, and he firmly resolves to send her on her way, unwilling to get entangled in a stranger's troubles. Yet, as fragments of her guarded demeanor slip through, Ki-Beom catches glimpses of a familiar sorrow lurking beneath her defiant exterior—a shadow that echoes his own painful history. Despite every rational argument screaming against it, his reluctant empathy gets the better of him, and he agrees to offer her shelter under one non-negotiable condition: she must vacate his home in exactly fourteen days. What begins as an awkward and tense coexistence slowly transforms as the days peel away. Ki-Beom finds himself drawn into Su-Hyeon's quiet world, piecing together her habits, her evasions, and the rare moments when her armor cracks. But with each passing sunrise, the ticking clock grows louder, forcing him to confront not only her fragility but also the unexpected ways she unsettles his carefully ordered life. Just as he begins to accept the temporary rhythm of their arrangement, Ki-Beom starts to sense that Su-Hyeon is not merely a lost girl seeking refuge—she carries secrets far heavier than her runaway status suggests, and the two weeks he granted her may hold revelations that will change everything he thought he knew.
