Meanwhile, the teaser preview video released on January 13 begins with a person drowning. After that, the scene is converted to Chaehwa Girls' High School, the background of the play, and Yu-J (Lee Hye-ri) is proudly represented in front of the students. Unlike Yu-J, Woo Seul-gi (Jeong Soo-bin) appears under the watch of other students such as Joo Ye-ri (Kang Hye-won) and Choi Kyung (Oh Woo-ri).

UJ "Seulgi, are you preparing for Korea University, too?The scene in which he approaches Wooseul-gi asking, and looks at Wooseul-gi with a curious look shows YooJ's curiosity and subtle feelings toward Wooseul-gi. The caption 'Close relationship' that appeared with it compresses their relationship into one word.
In addition, scenes featuring the individuality of students, such as Joo Ye-ri, who takes selfies in front of the mirror, and Choi Kyung, who nervously flies bundles of paper from the rooftop, are also inserted. In particular, Choi Kyung's line "I'm against a kid with an unknown identity getting caught in our group" suggests that the emergence of Woo Seul-gi is causing a conflict between Yu-J, Ju Ye-ri, and Choi Kyung.
