Foreword

Sulli Choi

as Goo Jae-hee

She grew up in the USA and was touched when she saw

Tae-joon in a high jump competition.

In order to see him,

she dressed up as a boy to transfer to all-boy Genie High School.

 

 

 

Choi Min-ho

as Kang Tae-joon

He is a high jump athlete

who holds the best record in the

World Junior Championship.

He receives love from fangirls for

his outstanding looks that match

his national representative rank.

He is dull and only says what he wants to,

nor is he very interested in girls.

After he injured himself and knew he'd still be disabled even if he recovered,

he announced he wouldn't high jump any more.

He later regains his lost laugher after meeting his roommate,

Jae-hee (Sulli Choi) who he eventually fell in love with.

 

 

Lee Hyun-woo

as Cha Eun-gyeol

He is a charming soccer player who likes to joke and very active.

He is the mood creator wherever he goes.

Even though he has many people around him because of his outstanding skill and looks,

he has never been in love.

He initially was sure that he likes a girl,

but when he realizes that he likes Jae-hee,

who is dressing up as a boy, he gets completely confused.

He was also angry and upset when he finds out that Jae Hee (Sulli Choi)

was lying to him (that she was a boy).

 

Kim Ji Won

as Seol Han-na

She is a gymnast and daughter from a rich family without any shortcomings.

Although she possesses a reckless personality,

in front of Tae-joon she becomes a gentle lady.
