Synopsis
Disgraced idol Jiho faces scandal, past wounds, and unexpected love while seeking his true self beyond fame.
Min Jiho's idol career as a member of a mid-tier K-pop group member ends in emotional turmoil and disappointment. Ready to leave the industry behind for good, Jiho unexpectedly finds himself filling in on a variety show...only to cross paths with Kang Taeyeon, the A-list actor he's long admired. A lighthearted moment on set quickly spirals into a headline-making scandal: the first same-sex "incident" in the industry. Though the rumors fade as quickly as they came, Jiho's quiet exit is once again delayed. When an awkward reunion with former groupmate Park Hyeondo pulls him back into old tensions, Jiho is forced to confront not just his past, but the unresolved wounds he thought he left behind with his life as an idol. In a world where appearances are everything, can Jiho uncover what he truly wants...and who he wants to stand beside him when the cameras are off? (Source: Lezhin Entertainment)
