The Story

Jeon and Jia are in love but refuse to break the bond of their friendship. Content with not revealing what they feel for each other, they decide not to date other people and remain constantly together even after graduation. Embarking on lofty career plans, they vow to be fully supportive of each other's careers and work together as much as possible.

But their feelings grow deeper and harder to suppress. One night, an unforgettable incident changed how they handled their lives together. Will this signal a change for the better, or will they discover that their feelings weren't worth pursuing after all?

Wherever is a story about how decisions affect our lives and how important it is to weigh personal and professional priorities.

Fun Fact:

"Wherever" was the first title of Jungkook's self-composed song "Stay," an EDM track included in BTS' latest album, BE. The song was supposedly meant to be the last track in his mixtape but the other members liked it and asked to include it in their album.
