Lee Heeseung has it all brains, money, looks, and a permanent seat at the top of Hanbit University's social food chain (not that he even cares). Cold, quiet, and a total genius, Heeseung prefers coding to people and video games to conversations.
Enter Sim Jaeyun or Jake, a sunshine transfer student from Australia with a loud laugh, puppy-like energy, and a talent for making friends with literally everyone.
And unfortunately for Heeseung...
Jake is obsessed with him.
Heeseung: trying to avoid attention.
Jake: "Hey bestie! Want to be lab partners?"
Heeseung: ...no.
But Jake isn't the type to take a hint.
And Heeseung isn't ready for how Jake's clinginess slowly feels...
Less annoying.
It's warmer.
More addictive.
When other students start getting too close to Jake, Heeseung feels something unexpected: jealousy.
And Jake? He might be acting clueless, but maybe, just maybe, he knows exactly what he's doing.
"He's loud, he's annoying, and he never stops smiling... so why does my heart race when he looks at me like that?"
Kanda Kyoichi transmigrated to Konoha and became a temporary instructor at the Ninja Academy. Fortunately, he awakened the Mentor System.
By teaching others, he could earn rewards.
Thus began Kyoichi's career as a "teacher" in the ninja world.
Shisui: "Sensei's unique interpretation of the Will of Fire has given the Uchiha Clan a true sense of direction!"
Asuma: "The essence of the jade lies in protecting the people, with the advanced leading the way for the less experienced. Only then can Konoha become stronger!"
Kakashi: "He's my life mentor. He transformed Konoha!"
...
Years later, in the memoirs of Kyoichi, now the Hokage, he wrote:
"I honestly just wanted to be a life mentor!"
