Synopsis
''It’s hard dating someone who won’t give you the time of day. Su-ae Shim knows that better than anyone, having dated her indifferent boyfriend, Minu Kang, for years. She sometimes wishes she could be more like her charismatic stepsister, Ra-im, who seems to have it all. But life takes a turn for the weird when Su-ae discovers Jellypop, a sentient flip phone, in her locker. Jellypop has a lot to say about her love life, especially as Su-ae drifts further away from Minu and finds herself running into Minu’s friend, Eunhyeok. Add to the mix a growing suspicion that Minu and Ra-im might be more than friends, and Su-ae might need a miracle to navigate the ups and downs of high school romance!''

Su-ae Shim


Su-ae is the main character of the series. The story begins with her in a one-sided relationship with Minu, who neglects and berates her. Believing things will eventually work out between the two of them, Su-ae continues dating Minu no matter how much she is hurt by him. One day, Su-ae stumbles upon a Jellypop phone at school. Initially, Su-ae is freaked out by the phone's supernatural capabilities; she receives anonymous texts detailing situations happening to her in real time and finding the phone magically appearing someplace else when she throws it out. She soon discovers the phone's ability to count the number of love points a person has throughout their lifespan. Curious about her own love life, Su-ae tests it on herself, only to miserably realize that she has no love points. The origins of this love detecting system remains partly unknown, but Su-ae finds out more via a package arriving at her doorstep. Reading the instructions leads her to find a chip inside her phone. She inserts it into her computer, triggering a webpage that elaborates on the strange love point system.

A shocking revelation is revealed to her once she does; she's the glitch in the system who has no love points, breaking the record of another who had the lowest. During all these Jellypop mysteries, an anonymous person had been texting Su-ae non-stop. At first, she believes the harasser to be Eunhyeok, who's been witnessing the current collapse of her dating life. However, she pieces together that it isn't him, and the anonymous texter continues messing with her. A malicious deal is struck when this person tasks her to get at least one point for the sake of the system, or else she will have to die. Desperate under this newfound deadline, she hatches a plan with Eunhyeok to make her current boyfriend jealous and gain love points to survive.

Minu Kang
Minu is Su-ae's boyfriend at the beginning of the series, who does not treat her well. There are several moments where he emotionally abuses Su-ae, such as ignoring her, coldly dismissing her, hitting on other girls while she is around, refuses to make time for dates, and so on. However, the most blaring red flag he poses is cheating on Su-ae with her sister, Ra-im. Despite having conflicting feelings about hurting Su-ae, he eventually gives into Ra-im's advances and pursues his side relationship with her. Su-ae later tries to use him to gain love points as part of her plan.

Ra-im Yun
(worst character ever) Ra-im is Su-ae's adoptive sister and the two were close ever since childhood. Ra-im's parents left her, so Su-ae's family welcomed her with opened arms. At school, she is incredibly popular; she is known to be the prettiest girl on campus and several people admire her, including Su-ae. She is also very talented, but her deep insecurities and malicious motives are revealed; she is jealous of Su-ae. In her mind, she simultaneously loves her and hates her.

Ra-im seems to have various reasons, but the most prominent one is during a flashback. She is seen to deeply envy how Su-ae is so loved and adored by her parents. In response to these festering emotions, Ra-im decides to take away everything Su-ae loves, including stealing her boyfriend even though she has no romantic feelings for him. Ra-im and Su-ae once grew up together like close-knitted siblings, but they become cold to each other after Ra-im secretive relationship with Minu is on full display to Su-ae. Her cheating plan is put into action shortly after, severing the divide between the two girls more.

Eunhyeok Go
Eunhyeok is one of Su-ae's friends and main love interest throughout the series, who is helping her out in her cheating revenge plan. As first impressions go, Eunhyeok views Su-ae as pitiful coward for staying in a relationship that was clearly toxic and one-sided. He doesn't pay much attention to her until they accidently bump into each other on a few occasions. Their small interactions end up changing the course of each other's relation.

He learns more about her personality, her home life and her hobbies. At this point, Eunyeok has grown very fond of Su-ae's subtle and genuine charm. He is starting to understand her perspective on love, no longer looking down on her views. He is Minu's former close friend, but their friendship later deteriorates when he becomes close to Su-ae.

Dohwa Baek
Dohwa is another one of Su-ae's love interests. He is rumored to be an idol trainee, and has very high love points. He is the most popular guy at Su-ae's school and is extremely handsome. Rumors say he is the son of a chaebol family.

HE IS SO FINE
