Plot Summary
The story begins with Lee Shin (Jung Yong-hwa), the confident leader of the rock band "The Stupid," and Lee Gyu-won (Park Shin-hye), a Traditional Korean Music student. They clash from their first meeting, but Gyu-won becomes captivated by Lee Shin’s musical talent after attending one of his concerts.
Gyu-won joins a special university performance for the school’s 100th anniversary, catching the eye of Kim Suk-hyun (Song Chang-eui), a Broadway composer turned director. She competes with Han Hee-joo (Kim Yoon-hye), the chairman’s daughter, for the lead role but faces sabotage.
Meanwhile, Lee Shin joins the musical, motivated by his affection for dance professor Jung Yoon-soo (So Yi-hyun). As Gyu-won and Lee Shin collaborate, their rivalry softens into romance, but obstacles arise—including Hee-joo’s mother’s schemes to damage Gyu-won’s reputation.
When Hee-joo suffers a vocal cord injury, Gyu-won steps in but selflessly allows Hee-joo to perform, secretly providing the real singing voice. This opens career opportunities for Gyu-won, who must choose between pursuing her dreams abroad or staying with Lee Shin, who is struggling with a painful wrist injury.
