Synopsis
Seven years a trainee, Oh Cherry saw her contract end last year, but she pretends otherwise, sneaking naps in the debut team's dorm. An in-house audition for the final member of girl group “Juliet Rose” is her last chance. But on audition day she oversleeps and can't even get into the audition room; a brawl gets everyone disqualified — and every time, she's caught at her worst by Si-nu, the top star she broke up with five years ago. Declaring it's all over, she throws their couple smartwatch into the Han River. The next morning, it's audition day again.
Characters
Oh Cherry (22, F)
A seven-year trainee at Global Entertainment. When it comes to singing, she's phenomenal.

Vocalist of boy group “Phoenix.” Trained alongside Cherry, and is still keeping his promise that his first collaboration would be with her.
Lee Tae-rim (17, F)
A second-year trainee. Seems calculating but is honest and pure. Aims to debut before she turns 18.
Manager Cheon (43, M)
Global Entertainment manager who split Cherry and Si-nu up five years ago. Rough but warm.
Director Seong (42, F)
The chairman's daughter. Behind her gentle face, company profit is her only standard.
