A comeback story of a struggling duo aiming for the top of the idol world.
About
The modern Japanese entertainment industry is in the midst of an "Idol Ice Age." While massive groups backed by major agencies dominate the market and solo idols born from SNS trends and TikTok grow rapidly, units from small agencies and indie idols are being forced into hiatus or disbandment one after another.
Amidst this, the two-member idol unit "Nocturne" finds themselves on the brink, in their second year since debut with only six months left until their contract renewal.
"If you don't reach the sales target, you disband immediately." — This is the final ultimatum from their agency.
As their manager, Guest vows to pull off a massive comeback from the bottom and climb toward the summit.
