[sum] Scarlet Night Series

Another school year has come for the students of private school Shim Jang Academy, or SJA. Secluded in the beautiful landscape of South Korea's country side, only students with ridiculously high grades or ridiculously rich parents attend this prestigious high school.

Due to health problems the previous year, one student is the only one of his year to have to return to SJA and repeat his senior year. He returns to campus after six months of being gone and he's faced with new changes and new faces. As he has to readjust to school life, things take a turn for the worse as his health problems return.

He dealt with his health once, so surely he can do it again? This time, however, he can't find the light at the end of the tunnel and his fate is looking bleaker with each passing day. He'll have to find strength in his friends and trust a love for someone he least expected. Can he do so before time runs out?

::Characters

Kyuhyun, Student
Quiet and withdrawn, he hates that he has to repeat his senior year. The previous year he had to leave SJA half-way during the school year due to health problems. Back at SJA, the only person he has left is his best friend who's now in his year. Because of the issues that arose the previous year in relation to his health, he doesn't trust easily and, in fact, only truly trusts his best friend.

Taeyeon, Student
Popular with a bubbly personality, she is Kyuhyun's best friend and it's rare to not see them together. Very emotional by nature, she wears her heart on her sleeve and cannot help but express her feelings on her face. Steadfastedly loyal, she's the only one to stay with Kyuhyun when he was having issues the previous year.

Sungmin, Science/Biology Teacher
Able to switch rapidly between quirky and serious, he's known Kyuhyun all his life. Despite not seeing Kyuhyun for years, he's quick to re-establish their previous friendship and since they've known each other for so long, he's very protective of Kyuhyun and will do anything for him. He's seen as a very laidback teacher.

Zhou Mi, Literature Teacher
Friendly and always smiling, Zhou mi works for the government as a district director. Because of his history with the government, he has background knowledge in health and, thus, helps SJA's nurse practitioner when he can. He's seen as a very personable teacher.

Hankyung, Mathematics Teacher
Having a strong sense of fairness and justice, he's known Zhou Mi since they were children. Although he didn't work for the same government department that Zhou Mi did, Hankyung is highly regarded because his grandfather was a part of it. He likes rules and abides by them, but also understands that sometimes they need to be bent. He's seen as a very strict teacher.

Heechul, Nurse
Sarcastic and flippant, Heechul works at the school during the week and then works in a hospital in Seoul on weekends. Although known to have an almost frivolous personality, the moment a student is sick or injured, he thinks fast and seriously. He knew Eeteuk's lover and is now the only person in his complete confidence. He's seen as a reliable nurse.

Eeteuk, Headmaster
Presenting a silent but strong presence, he used to be known for his easy smile and unique laugh. However, after the death of his lover, he became more withdrawn. Passionate about his school, his primary concern is always his students and school. Because of Kyuhyun's past health problems, Eeteuk takes special care to watch out for Kyuhyun. He's a very respected headmaster and teacher.
