The Idol Project

Stepping into the high-stakes world of K-pop, a newly appointed manager finds his career taking an unexpected turn before it even begins. Tasked with guiding a popular idol group through the relentless demands of the entertainment industry, he quickly realizes that navigating schedules and public relations is not his greatest challenge. Instead, a bizarre twist of fate leaves everyone around him convinced that he is actually a young woman. Thrust into this precarious situation, he is forced to play along to protect his position and maintain harmony within the group. Every interaction becomes a delicate balancing act as he carefully guards his true identity from the very artists he is supposed to lead. The constant fear of exposure looms over his daily routine, turning ordinary managerial duties into a nerve-wracking performance of its own. As time passes and his bond with the idols deepens, maintaining the charade grows increasingly difficult. Trapped in a web of misunderstandings, he must constantly adapt to survive the pressures of the spotlight. Ultimately, he is left to wonder if he will ever find the right moment to reveal his closely guarded secret, or if the illusion he has built will unravel on its own terms.
