Description:

This film centers on an eccentric engineering student, deeply engrossed in science since childhood and uninterested in anything else. With a mind that seeks scientific understanding for everything, he has always dismissed romance as something he cannot theorize or logically comprehend. His rigid, scientific worldview is dramatically challenged when he witnesses an older girl working in the school cafeteria bravely extinguish a small fire with a fire extinguisher. Her quick, courageous action completely captivates him, stealing his heart.

Suddenly, this oddball student, who once scoffed at love, finds himself hopelessly infatuated. The plot follows his charmingly awkward and often humorous attempts to pursue a romantic relationship, all while trying to apply his inherently logical and scientific approach to the bewildering complexities of human affection. Can this science-obsessed young man reconcile his passion for empirical data with the unpredictable nature of love, and ultimately succeed in winning the heart of the girl who inadvertently sparked his most illogical pursuit?
