Synopsis:
Miki Ishimoto’s entry into the entertainment industry takes an unexpected turn when she’s assigned to manage the Sekkou Boys, a peculiar idol group composed of four ancient Greco-Roman sculptures. Hired by Holbein Entertainment, Miki must navigate the challenges of launching a band made of stone, balancing historical reverence with modern performance expectations. The series explores themes of artistic interpretation and the evolving definition of stardom in a contemporary setting.
Set against the backdrop of Japan's idol culture, it examines the creative process of bringing inanimate objects to life on stage. Miki’s journey highlights the contrast between tradition and innovation as she strives to cultivate a unique identity for The Rockies. The story blends comedic elements with thoughtful explorations of performance, identity, and what constitutes artistic expression in an increasingly diverse entertainment landscape.
