19 parts Complete [TWICE AS A TEN-MEMBER GROUP]
A foreign trainee navigates the harsh realities of the K-pop industry after debuting in a girl group formed through a survival show notorious for its mistreatment. Struggling with a significant language barrier, she becomes entangled in misunderstandings with her fellow members.
Over time, these tensions ease, but the company's abusive practices persist, overshadowing the group's growing success.
As the foreign member faces relentless criticism for not meeting conventional Korean beauty standards, the relentless public shaming becomes too much to bear. She decides to leave the group, abandoning her nine remaining members and leaving them in shock and confusion.
Months turn into years, and while the company has since reformed its treatment of the group, the absence of their tenth member lingers, leaving the group incomplete.
Now, with the stage still calling and her former members hoping for her return, she faces a monumental decision: Will she return to the group she once loved, or leave the past behind forever?
