After learning that her mother is terminally ill, Uehara Kobato is left feeling entirely alone and without a place to call home. However, her mother reveals a crucial piece of information before passing: Kobato has an older brother who works in the Japanese television industry. Fueled by unwavering determination, she travels to Japan with two clear goals—securing employment and tracking down her long-lost sibling. Her journey takes an unexpected turn when she accidentally collides with Shinjou Takeru, a popular idol. Struck by Kobato’s remarkable appearance, Takeru pushes her into auditioning for the entertainment world. Despite her lack of preparation, Kobato’s unique combination of youthful charm, striking looks, confident demeanor, captivating voice, and impressive dancing skills allow her to pass the initial trials with ease. Together, she and Takeru deliver a standout performance at the auditions overseen by Fujishima Iori, successfully securing their positions. Yet, her triumph comes with a peculiar complication. Because of her tomboyish mannerisms and energetic behavior, the talent agency mistakenly assumes Kobato is a boy. Now, she must navigate the demanding world of Japanese entertainment while concealing her true identity, all in the hope of eventually finding the brother she came so far to meet.
