lim ah-jin

Ah-Jin is a 17-year-old high school student who secretly works as the highly-sought-after and enigmatic model Jinny. Ah-Jin is also more athletic and stronger than she appears. After being forced to lie to her crush, Do-Hun, telling him that Jinny is her cousin, Ah-Jin faces the challenge of her unrequited feelings for Do-Hun and his admiration for Jinny. Since her father insisted that Ah-Jin should not wear girly clothing, her life as Jinny serves as a form of rebellion. While Jinny exudes a very feminine persona and dresses in cute clothes and accessories, Ah-Jin's style is decidedly tomboyish; at one point, Ah-Jin is disheartened to discover that Do-Hun sees her more as a younger brother than as a girl. This duality in her life complicates her emotions and relationships, adding layers to her personal struggles and growth.
