The cast features Seon-ho Yoo as Siyun, a mysterious figure who exists between dreams and reality. Ju-ha Yeo plays Jeongmin, a bullied student who begins plotting revenge through lucid dreams, while Si-woo Choo takes on the role of Jae-hyuk, whose presence complicates Jeongmin’s emotions. Chae-won Kwon, formerly of DIA, appears as Juhyeon — the powerful and feared “queen bee” at school.
According to WEBTOON, the story follows Jeongmin, a lonely student isolated by bullying from her former friend Juhyeon. Her only escape becomes lucid dreaming, where she meets a mysterious man who offers to help her take revenge — blurring the line between justice, obsession, and reality.
With its mix of psychological themes, romance, and dark school drama, the live-action version aims to capture the intense emotional tone that helped the webtoon build a strong global following.
