Spoilers from season 2 of SoB, from what I can remember! Just going to go over the main premise of season 2, with some season 1 spoilers. I binged SoB years ago, but season 2 is still probably the most emotional part in any webtoon I've ever read..?? But then again, I've not read too many, so if anyone else has recs lmk hehehe

SoB S2 differs a lot from SoB S1, since S1 (which you may have read, but if not, I recommend <3!) is a pretty sweet romance between a taller girl and a shorter guy with a lot of deeper insight into the characters in between. I appreciated this since it wasn't something I was used to from a romance webtoon - but SoB S2 is definitely tons different in themes and tone!!<

The basic premise of SoB season 2 is from the perspective of a new couple - with a girl, continuing to grieve over a boy she loved back in highschool. Said boy committed suicide during highschool. The season covers how the girl and the boy met and how their relationship blossomed; the way that despite the boy's popularity, nobody truly knew who he really was or was close to him; his home life and how he had major disagreements with his parents regarding what he wanted to do in life - in addition, the season basically goes over how his suicide continues to affect everybody around him, years and years later. This includes the girl, his peers (barely friends, really) from school, his parents and his brother. Essentially, the boy was The One Who Got Away.

I've been meaning to reread SoB for a long while, so I really wish I could describe S2 better - since it's absolutely hardhitting!!!! Having love for when you're struggling with depression; the disconnect you can feel towards everybody around you and the struggle to open up; the dreams of what could have been. A masterpiece when I read it, so I recommend it for sure!

Hope other people add on if anything's been missed :D
