Synopsis

Totally fictional, totally fictional, totally fictional! Important things must be said three times. Don't argue over the details. When reading a novel, there's no need to take it as seriously as the college entrance exam. Just have fun.

[No golden finger + no pocket dimension + no college entrance exam]

It all takes place in a small village in the north. As one of the first young couples to head south for work, what will their future hold? Let's wait and see...
