Fans chanting your name, makeup artists and stylists swarming you and creating a beauty out of this world, your music playing on tv, and most of all, becoming someone's paradise...that's what Ishihara Minami had wanted since she was 12 years old.

An avenue to someone's healing process, a comfort to those who needed it, all the while looking like a princess and being loved by many. It sounded like heaven. It seemed like thousands of girls just like her managed to live out this dream that seemed so far it almost felt like it was made-up. They made it look easy....but who knew it would be so hard.

With so many people out to get you and willing to use you as a stepping stone, it seemed impossible to stay genuine in such a place. The road to her dream of becoming an idol that was filled with a roller coaster of emotions and constant lies, even she wonders if this dream will ever come into her grasp. 

"How far are you willing to go?" 
"I'll do anything."
"Just like they did to you?"
"No....I'll do it better than all of them combined."

Your Paradise: Listen To My Song

It was the first day of filming for Kiss in the Clouds.

The cast was excited and rearing to go after positive table reads and rehearsals.

For the most part, the cast had been easy to get along with.

Minami's character, Kanna, was the member of a girl group called "Cloudy Kiss". The members Ai and Rio were played by an idol named Mayu and an actress named Momoka. While the fourth member, Nozomi, was played by….Miki from Smile Days.

Today they were filming a scene in which Kanna and Tetsuya – the male lead – would be discussing their character's coffee date scene for their upcoming film. Meanwhile, the other Cloudy Kiss members would be seated throughout the coffee shop, separately watching the two talk and flirt, jealousy overcoming them as they all have feelings for Tetsuya as well.

"ACTION!" yelled the director, once everyone was in their places.
