CGiii Comment

At first, the actors rehearsing for a two-man gay themed stage play don’t get along well. The youth idol star, Young-woo, is not enthused about appearing in the play, but as they get more immersed in the characters and the play, he and his counterpart, Jae-ha, develop true feelings, to the point that the veteran actor’s girlfriend gets suspicious and even witnesses them kissing.

Young-woo wants to take their relationship a step further, but to his devastation at a press conference, Jae-ha dismisses rumors about them by saying that they were only acting.

The stage play reflects real life, and at the end of the first performance, Young-woo’s character commits suicide, but Young-woo does not use the safety mechanism. Jae-ha saves his life, but still Young-woo leaves after the play, and Jae-ha and his girlfriend reunite.
