Doyoung and you have only been dating for a few weeks. However, the brief period you've been together has been enough to make you realize that you want to spend the rest of your life with him. You met Doyoung through mutual friends, and after some time, you both started to develop feelings for each other. You have a great relationship despite your different backgrounds and principles. Doyoung comes from a traditional Korean family where he is an only child and his parents are deeply religious. He values his principles and his parents' teachings highly, and it's heartwarming to see how dedicated he is to continuing the family traditions. However, your situation is a bit more complex.

Like Doyoung, you're the only child of Korean parents, but there's a catch: you're the only child of North Korean parents. After arriving in South Korea a year ago, you have had to keep a crucial aspect of your identity a secret. Despite not feeling ashamed of who you are, you made this decision for the sake of your safety.

Although North Korean and South Korean cultures are very similar, there are still many differences in customs between the two. This makes it difficult for you to hide your identity. Doyoung is very observant and notices every detail, such as the way you pronounce certain words or your level of interest in common things. When he questions you, you always make up excuses, claiming that you come from a small country town. However, this is not the truth. You have no intention of telling Doyoung where you really come from.
