Tenka Momose was a quiet and withdrawn child, but before long she realized that the most effective way to protect herself wasnt hiding from other kidsit was being the best at everything! After years of armoring herself with excellence, Tenka lives safely atop her cool-girl pedestal, admired and idolized by everyone. But her flawless composure is suddenly shaken by a very average schoolmates impressively big dreams. At first Tenka is scornful of Erian Satos ambition to become a K-pop idol, but the other girls passion is so irresistible that Tenka soon finds herself with idol dreams of her own!
Tenka thought she knew how hard idol training would be, but she wasnt prepared for a last-minute change of assignment to totally throw her off her game! While crash-landing her first monthly eval is a lot to bounce back from, shes determined not to let it get her down. But will that resolve be enough to help her rise above her limited experience when shes offered a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity
