Character introduction
Tan Kai
A boy who was excellent in both academic and moral character in high school, but failed to adapt to the new environment after entering university, and his grades plummeted.

She has excellent grades, lively and lovely, and has a very wide range of interpersonal relationships. As the daughter of a restaurant owner, her family is fairly wealthy. The only problem is that her family does not support her dream. However, she has been secretly rebelling, looking forward to becoming the most glamorous star on the screen.
Si Rou
The class leader of Tan Kai's class, ranked first in the class, upright and kind, willing to help others. She has a very grand ideal-to contribute to the happiness of all mankind. She did not stop at looking up at the stars because her dream was too grand, but instead worked hard bit by bit. But perhaps it was her stubborn personality that caused her to constantly clash with others in the process of working hard, making her dream road extremely bumpy. Her parents are both workers, so her family is slightly poor. But her parents have always been trying their best to support her ideal, because her faith is exactly what her parents taught her since childhood.
Song Shuyao
A classmate who is in the same club as Tan Kai, she is a rich girl. She received elite education since childhood, talented and well-educated. She always maintains a gentle and elegant lady image, but because she has lived in a star-studded environment since childhood, she sometimes becomes very domineering without knowing it. Her dream is to marry the boy she likes against her father's plan.
