characteristics. Ru Ru is a boyish girl from
a broken wealthy family. Lee Dong and
Cheng Xuen are excellent students and
childhood friends. Jiang Min is an orphan
who takes over his late father's photo shop
to make a living. Siao Ke is a
happy-go-lucky girl who is quite childish,
loves comics and lives with her lecturer aunt
(Miss Wu). Huang Da Chu is playful and
likes to woo girls. Later, they will be joined
by other cast members: Chi Hung, Yu
Fang, Ai Ling and Yu Zhai. Watching this
drama, you'll see the cheery and bumpy life
of students.
Summary* (caution: spoiler alert):
The story tells of how the students
overcome their differences, forge a strong
friendship and despite facing obstacles, they
work together to achieve their goals, usually
to complete the assignments given by their
lecturers, Miss Wu and Mr. Kim. Besides
a story of friendships, there's also an
on-going love triangle between Lee Dong,
Cheng Xuen and Jiang Min. Who'll end up
with who?
