However, when each of their respective dreams are close, they end up finding numerous obstacles putting their relationship to the test. When Yan is on the edge of collapsing, Xu becomes her support. In order to reignite Yan’s hope, Xu and his bandmates decide to prepare an unexpected surprise for her.
