Cast
Characters
The principal's elder 18-year-old twin daughter; Yi Zhen (recognised by her long hair) is the more extroverted sister and stands up for herself as well as her sister, taking injustice personally. Yi Zhen has a phobia of water which stems from her memories of her throwing her sister (and consequently falling in herself) into a swimming pool when they were 6. She hangs out after class with Jia Wei. She wants to appear perfect to everyone, but this is something only her sister knows.
The GTV website states: Xu Yi Zhen (older sister) described as: 17 years older, high school senior From outward appearance, I am perceived by others as smart, good personality, pretty, and cute, but not an ounce of arrogance. It's true, I am the perfect model that people envy and get jealous over, but I adore all the attention I get, and I love the fake self I have created for myself. To become number 1, I would stay up late study and not care about my health. Yes, you can call me the "Queen of Fakeness" because I care about how people think of me. People's adorations and praises gives me the strength to live. The only person that knows about my fake outward appearance is my younger sister. But in private, I am lazy and obstinate. I am so unlike my younger sister, she is so gentle, sweet, and patient (I think it's probably due to her poor health). I have never seen her angry at anyone.
The principal's younger 18-year-old twin daughter; Yi Jing (recognised by her short hair) suffers from severe asthma and is always coddled by her mother and sister. She is more reserved and innocent and hangs out after class with another female student, shopping or eating. Due to her sickness she skipped a year of school. She never gets angry and appears to be compassionate and helpful.
The GTV website states:
Xu Yi Jing(younger sister): Compared to my sister, I should be considered as the extra one. It is fate that the day I am born as a twin, people will compare my sister and I with everything. Until I found out my sister's true self, it's true, I was jealous of her. So I've decided to play the role of the gentle, sweet, and cute sister to please my parents. Throughout all this time, YiZhen and I played our roles accordingly, neither of us ever thought about changing anything. But, since I have poor health, I was away from school for one year, during that time, I begin to change.
Many people are angry at the sisters for their apparent aloofness; no guys in the school stand a chance with them.
