01 / A closer look

The story, without the spoilers.

At Kirin Arts High School, six very different students are chasing the same dream: to become stars. Go Hye-mi is a talented singer with a proud, prickly exterior. Song Sam-dong is a country boy with a gift for music and no idea how the city works. Jin-guk, Baek-hee, Jason and Pil-sook each bring their own talent, insecurity and ambition to the school's fierce competitions. Dream High is a bright, energetic youth drama that launched a generation of stars — Kim Soo-hyun, Suzy, IU and Taecyeon were all young and hungry here, and their performances still sparkle. The music is catchy, the rivalries are fun, and the story captures the excitement of chasing a dream at seventeen. The plot is simple and some storylines are thin, but as a time capsule of early-2010s K-pop dreams, it remains joyful and nostalgic. Watch it to see future superstars at the very beginning. Through auditions, rivalries and first love, the six students learn that talent alone is never enough to become a star.
