Jaeon Yeon

Jaeon Yeon is the patient of the third story arc, and his case is mostly handled by Seonga, who helps him with his confidence issues.

History
Jaeon was a shy indivual since his youth. He had to retake the college entrance exam so he didn't have any friends. Nayoung was his first friend, and she would always invite him to hang out with her group. Jaeon developed a crush on Nayoung, but whenever he tried to ask her out his stomach would hurt.

At some point in his first year, Jaeon had to do a presentation for his psychology class with Professor Oh. During the presentation, he was shaking a lot. The professor pointed this out and joked about Jaeon's shyness. The entire class laughed at Jaeon, and his anxiety became more severe.

Ten Days of Shy Mr. Yeon
Jaeon has decided to ask Nayoung out on her birthday. He only has ten days to do so, so he decides to ask Seonga for help. Seonga decides to use cognitive behavioral therapy on Jaeon, with excercises such as taking surveys of strangers and giving hugs to strangers. On the day of Nayoung's birthday Jaeon feels confident enough to ask her, but he panics when he sees a former classmate staring at him. Jaeon abandons the meeting and feels embarassed about it.

Seonga and Dr. Frost call Jaeon back to his old classroom to participate in the longitudinal study. When Jaeon sees the responses from his former classmates, he realizes that they did not remember him at all, let alone hate him or continue to mock him. He also sees a paper from Nayoung speaking highly of him. Jaeon gets the courage to ask Nayoung out, and she accepts their date.
