About Youth

Today marks Ye Guang's 17th birthday. Apart from being showered with endless gifts and wishes from his fans and admirers, Ye is also greeted to a special performance and an unexpected confession by one of the school's most popular girls. Elsewhere, in an unexpected turn of events, Xu Qi Zhang, who somehow happens to know Ye from the past, also finds himself in the confession team. In the evening, when both his parents and his best friend, Ray, are not available to celebrate his birthday with him, a lonely Ye decides to head out on his own and accidentally bumps into Xu in front of a convenience store. The two, then, decide to hang out together.

The night marks the beginning of a revived interest between Ye Guang and Xu Qi Zhang. Ye, who's always admired Xu's warmth and kindness, is left surprised upon learning of Xu's identity as the lead singer of the school's rock band. Meanwhile, even though Ray is repeatedly rejected by his boyfriend time and again, he is nevertheless still reluctant to give up on their relationship believing that there's still a chance for them. And it is not until this one final date that he's left completely heartbroken and shattered, only to be witnessed by the cafe's clerk, Jian the whole time.

When Xu Qi Zhang learns that being elected president of the student body will make him eligible for a scholarship to study abroad at the music academy of his choice, he feels very hesitant as it will directly put him head-to-head with Ye Guang, who is also seen to be applying for the very position... One night, as he's headed out to return the pants he borrowed from Xu Qi Zhang, Ye Guang arrives at Xu's noodle store, only to encounter Xu Qi Zhang's uncle smashing up the store!
