Hali Kang - (16) She has a very unusual life. She is pretending to be her brother as her mother and brother were in a car accident. Her younger brother Terry died and her mother gets amnesia, thinking Hali is her son. In the process, Meja (her mother) forgets she had a daughter. Hali's father wants her to pretend to be Terry, hoping his wife will soon get over this delusion. She is in love with Hajun Cho whom she met and fell in love with when he was her tutor in 8th or 9th grade. He was in college and not interested (so he said). She now is his student in high school, and is still in love with him, and she doesn't take no for an answer. In volume 5 it is shown that her mother suffers from episodes where she realises that Hali is a girl and not her brother which results in her becoming abusive of Hali. When Hajun finds out about her life they grow close, so much that they become a secret couple. But as Hajun's family announces his engagement to another woman, Hali's happiness is short lived.
