This story begins with a question about the possibility of friendship between men and women — specifically, the concept of a "female friend" (a girl who is just a friend) and a "male friend" (a guy who is just a friend). In society, there's often debate over how far such friendships can be acknowledged. Some claim that true friendship can transcend gender, even saying, "We could take a bath together." On the other hand, others believe there should be boundaries — that "drinking or having a meal together is fine," but anything beyond that level of intimacy should be approached with caution. But can friendship between a man and a woman truly survive even in such extreme situations? An experiment to answer this very question begins quietly, in the shadows.
