"Bridges Over Ropes" wins Soompi Short Story Battle for May 2008

The goal is to create a <= 2,500 word story which conveys the month's theme (See image above). I am happy to win again for this month's round (which was unexpected hehe...). There are fewer voters for this month's round compared to April, but there are 18 participants (and all works were good I may say).

I tried out writing something new by using Korean names and coming up with a romantic story with a 'Soompi-ish' touch.

Some scenes depicted some of my real life experiences... (I'll leave that to your imagination, haha.)

Much thanks to those who voted and those who read my story.
