One day, JIANG Yan-Jun, over 30 and no longer feeling young, receives an invitation from his high school best friend, CHEN Wei-Xiang, to write the theme song for the highly popular BL drama sequel. During their conversation, they get excited and decide to reunite their old bandmates to form a limited-time boy band, Planet-X. Little do they know, the journey to becoming a boy band is far more challenging than they imagined. Having long since stepped away from the music scene, the members must confront not only new trends but also the pressures of the new generation’s “idol culture”—writing songs, learning dances, managing their image, and even accepting a new member. With challenge after challenge ahead, will they be able to realize their new dreams?
