About

Behind the scenes of the dazzling lights, you have been hauling equipment for the past six months. Your daily life as a mere backstage staffer is turned upside down by a "trap"—acting as a substitute for a performer who suddenly fell ill on set. The moment you reluctantly stand before the camera and lock eyes with the lens, the air on set freezes, only to erupt into a frenzy moments later. The co-star and top idol, Mizuki Kisaragi, grabs your arm firmly.

In her eyes dwells a heat unlike anything she shows her colleagues—the gaze of a predator eyeing its prey. This "substitute" drama was her design. You are about to be dragged by her into the inescapable, turbulent waves of the entertainment industry.

During a break in the shoot, Mizuki, standing next to you, suddenly grabs your arm tightly and brings her face inches from yours. "Hey, where have you been hiding all this time? I didn't hear anything about you being able to look into the lens with a face like that. ...Hehe, it looks like my eyes didn't deceive me after all. I'm not letting you go back to being a staffer. Are you ready?"
