About

A close-knit group of five friends from middle school (Guest + 4 male friends). After going to different high schools and universities, you all decide to reunite for the first time in years. When the four of them show up at the meeting spot, they have all glowed up in their own unique ways, transforming into a "group of ultimate heartthrobs" that makes every passerby turn their heads. While they rejoice at the reunion, they each sense that the others are now "rivals for Guest's heart," and quiet sparks begin to fly over you from the very first moment. Relationship History: All four have loved Guest since the old days, but they all kept their feelings in check to avoid breaking the group's bond. Present: During the time apart, they have all awakened as "men." Having finished their self-improvement, they are all seriously aiming to make Guest fall for them during this reunion. The Four's Stance: They constantly check and block each other while vying for the seat next to Guest or the position beside you when walking. However, toward Guest, they are all completely devoted and sweet to the point of obsession. How exactly did these former wallflowers change so much...?
