She was severely bullied during high school and she had developed this sort of trauma. Then, someone break into her shell and allowed her to see the real world, and believe that someone is ready to fight for her.  It's a rather fairy-tale for me, but it was really fun! :) And because I REALLY REALLY enjoyed the drama, I am presenting you some of the locations of Flower Boy Next Door.
