Male lead: An actor, seemingly frail but secretly a remarkable doctor, with no one the wiser. Meticulous and worldly, yet guided by his own principles. He endured hardship as a child and fell on hard times. When he first met the female lead, he was fortunate to receive ten silver dollars. He joined an opera troupe and studied for three years. His astounding talent soon shone onstage, astonishing everyone with a single performance and making him famous. When asked to sing at someone's birthday celebration, he refused to perform anything extravagant and was made to suffer for it. He met the female lead again and was rescued by her once more.
Female lead: Born into a warlord family of high standing. Proud, unruly, and willful, she once saw the male lead as a pitiful child and casually tossed him some silver dollars. Kept under her family's watch, she was sent abroad for three years of study as the sole heir. After returning home, she became even more headstrong. Decisive and highly strategic, she won control of the family in a single move. When she met the male lead again, she spoke up to stop him, but did not recognize him.
