Sylvester had always been the type to blend into the background. With straight A's, a secure spot as valedictorian, and a love for dance that he kept mostly to himself, his life revolved around achieving perfection while struggling with insecurities about his body and smile. That is, until Owen-the confident, athletic heartthrob of the school-walked into his life and turned everything upside down. Much like the song "gold rush" by Taylor Swift, Sylvester feels the sting of jealousy, grappling with the fact that Owen is someone admired by everyone-but somehow, he chose him.
When a message from a former friend threatens to shatter their budding romance, Sylvester must confront his past, rebuild his confidence, and prove to himself that he's worthy of love and happiness. With the support of his best friend Quinn, his K-pop dance team, and Owen's circle of friends, Sylvester discovers that vulnerability isn't a weakness-it's the key to finding who he truly is.
Amidst school life, rehearsals, flashbacks, and late-night confessions, "gold rush" is a story about first love, self-acceptance, and the unexpected ways we find the courage to shine.
