“jintan”

- was the leader of the group; the most outgoing - became incredibly isolated and depressed after maeum’s death - has 0 goals in life; failed college entrance exams and is now a complete homebody - turned 21 on the first day of summer and began “hallucinating” maeum… except that it’s not a hallucination, and it really is the girl’s ghost claiming she can’t rest in peace until she has her wish granted - he has 0 clue what the wish is, and seeks the help of his childhood friends to figure it out - except his childhood friends think he’s crazy, and has difficulty moving on - had feelings for maeum; promised to marry her when they’re all grown up

“anaru”

- currently studying at a nearby college - very pretty and stylish; quite popular with the other students at her college campus - was a very kind child; loving towards her friends - used to be really harsh and mean at “jintan”, but she really did use to care for him - in fact, as a child, used to have a crush on him but never admitted it because of maeum - has somewhat of a good relationship with “yukiatsu”, simply because they have a lot of common interests, and both suffer unrequited love - actually still bears hidden feelings towards “jintan”; also still thinks he’s delusional about maeu, and he going cray cray - personality-wise: a people-pleaser (would do things she doesn’t like to please others), outgoing, a little short-tempered. the girl you’ll see at every party

“tsuruko”

- currently studying at a prestigious college with “yukiatsu” - very intelligent, but is still inferior to “yukiatsu”, who excels academically with ease - spends every single day with “yukiatsu”, to the extent people think they’re dating - when they’re actually not… she does have feelings for him though, but thinks “yukiatsu” won’t return her feelings because of maeum and “anaru” - because of that, she’s not so fond of “anaru”, and mocks “jintan” about maeum’s return; also thinks “jintan” is turning nuts - basically 80% of her life revolves around “yukiatsu”

“yukiatsu”

- currently studying at a prestigious college with “tsuruko” - handsome, and very intelligent; top of his class, very well-known for his looks and studies - spends every single day with “tsuruko”; he doesn’t think much about their relationship. he just doesn’t mind her company, and gets along well with her so - turns tense every single time at the mention of maeum; bears hatred towards “jintan” because of that - also hates “jintan” because he knows maeum had feelings for him, and he knew maeum wouldn’t reciprocate his love - which is why he often suggests to “anaru” that they should date, though “anaru” doesn’t really seem interested to be his girlfriend - can get pretty dark at times, and a teensy wee bit violent when upset/angry

“poppo”

- currently traveling the world with his own hard-earned money - ditched high school and worked full-time for 2-3 years before starting his travels - returned to his hometown to take a break, and is currently living at this abandoned tree house all of them used to play in as kids, though he does sleep over at his friends’ places as well - the one with the least drama (lol); has no feelings for anyone. he was and is pretty happy-go-lucky; was very happy to have them as friends as he was a socially awkward child - used to find “jintan” amazing; thought of him as the coolest kid ever - extremely loyal and caring to his friends, which is why he’s always the one to break up fights, calm everyone down, etc etc… and also why he believes what “jintan” says about maeum - is resolute on helping “jintan” find out about this wish of maeum’s that will help her rest in peace - oh, right….. he has a dark side too. he actually witnessed maeum’s accident, but never told anyone, so it’s actually why he travels the world… because he thinks he can get over the past by going as far away as he can, but nope
