The 24-episode series follows the story of Wu Xiaoya (Li Gengxi), a young woman navigating the challenges of life in a bustling city.

There, she unleashes her pent-up emotions in a hilarious routine mocking her boyfriend, much to the delight of the audience and the surprise of her friends.
This unexpected foray into comedy sparks a significant change in Xiaoya’s life. Will she find the confidence to prioritize her own happiness? And could this new path lead her to an unexpected romance with a fellow comedian (Wei Daxun)? Tune in on November 23rd to find out!
