Meteor Boys. Just hearing the group's name is embarrassing.

Seokwoo tries to put his disastrous idol career behind him and start fresh by returning to university.

But fate is cruel: his return coincides exactly with that of Yeoun, a rising star actor who, unlike Seokwoo, is enjoying a massively successful career.

Seokwoo is accustomed to people's contrasting reactions due to his long run as a "Failed Idol" (Mangdol). However, when Yeoun—the very person who highlights his inferiority—seems to intentionally provoke him, Seokwoo's anger boils over.

Just how far does this bastard intend to trample on my pride?

A story of jealousy, sharp rivalry, and the emotional battle between a fallen idol and a successful star, set on a volatile university campus.
