Twelve girls, twelve first loves, twelve different ways the heart breaks before it learns to survive it. Each episode lands in a single moment of recognition: you know exactly which girl you were, which mistake you made, which version of yourself you left behind. There is no grand narrative here, no twist that recontextualizes everything. Just the quiet devastation of wanting someone who cannot want you back the same way, and having to live with that anyway.
Twelve girls, twelve separate stories, and one shared thread: the bittersweet experience of first love. Each episode stands entirely on its own and centers on a single girl. What links them is a boy from her past, never the same one, who might have been a childhood sweetheart, an old crush, a close friend or someone she knew only briefly, and who still shapes part of her present. The tales range from straightforward romance to supernatural drama.
