Plot
At Aoiyama High, a high school known for producing up-and-coming students seeking to enter showbiz or become beauty professionals, first-year Aia Udagawa longs to be a makeup artist. However, he keeps his dream to himself because he is convinced he will not be good enough due to people disregarding his interest in it in the past. His classmate Jun Sumisaki longs to be a model, but she keeps her dream to herself because it is not how other people see her because of her timid nature and freckles. After being lumped into a team for their school's Aoi Con Festival, a high-profile runway show produced by the students, Aia and Jun finds themselves as stylist and model. Finding courage and inspiration in each other, Aia and Jun form a profound bond where they can reveal who they really are and gain the confidence to chase their dreams.
