Summary
The Childhood Friend Complex is a 2024 BL manhwa by Eunhi that captures the delicate transformation of a bond forged in childhood into something much more intricate and charged. The story follows Haneul and Mincheol, who have been inseparable for 20 years. Growing up side by side, they’ve always taken each other for granted as nothing more than friends. However, as life throws unexpected challenges and subtle misunderstandings their way, long-buried emotions begin to surface.
After 20 years together, Haneul and Mincheol were childhood friends. I found out about my childhood friend’s private situation, which I didn’t want to know! Although these two have never thought of themselves as opposing sexes, they gradually start to realize each other as miscommunications lead to miscommunications and wishful thinking leads to wishful thinking. A romantic comedy.
