What do you regret most after growing old?
Lin Dai: Thanks for asking. I regret dieting when I was young, not drinking a few more cups of milk tea, and not falling in love a few more times...
There are too many things I regret. Which one do you want to hear about?
A woman who was over seventy, with graying hair, no teeth, and shortness of breath after just a few steps, is reborn as a cool, gloomy idol in a scandal-plagued girl group on the decline.
Everyone notices that Lin Dai, the timid, downhearted group leader, has changed.
She gets every member up for training in the morning, makes breakfast for the members with weak stomachs, and even argues with their devil of a manager for their sake!
A member develops an eating disorder from dieting.
"Why are you dieting? You're not fat at all!" Lin Dai buys a mountain of delicious food. "Eat up. Grandma will handle whatever happens!"
A member gazes longingly at the luxury goods in a shop window.
"What's the point of making money if you don't spend it?" No money? Grandma will buy it for you!
A member is worn out from staying up late to train.
"Why train? Grandma's taking you to a nightclub to look at handsome guys!" A good balance between work and rest makes for better training!
All right, enough pretending. I'll come clean:
Grandma was a huge hottie-lover when she was young. (Shh.)
The next day, a video of the idol girl group at a nightclub leaks.
The whole internet: !!!
"Idols are people too. They have feelings and desires." After a paparazzo insults and interrogates her, Lin Dai's sharp retort goes viral: "You don't like looking at beautiful men and women? Is looking at handsome guys against the law? Oh, then call the police and have them arrest me."
Netizens: Way too much going on here.

Girl groups are springing up all over Huaguo's entertainment industry, but Lin Dai's group stands apart, taking the internet by storm with its uniquely outrageous style.
On a variety show, the production team sets a trap by bringing in milk tea and all kinds of high-calorie snacks, hoping to make the group's youngest member's foodie image crumble.
The pure and innocent maknae's eyes light up. "I love milk tea and street food! Sister Dadai often buys them for me. Thank you!" She says, then clears it all away.
That day, she lands on the trending list.
The gorgeous lead dancer has dated a string of heartthrobs. A reporter asks, "Everyone envies you for dating so many handsome men. What do you think about that?"
The lead dancer scoffs. "Dadai says they're the lucky ones for getting to date me."

The group's visual wears luxury brands and is exposed as having a rich sponsor. She coolly replies, "My sponsor is Lin Dai. Want to know if my sponsor still has it? Go ask her."
Lin Dai: ...
Before long, Lin Dai single-handedly takes the girl group, which was on the verge of disbanding, and turns it into a top-tier act, guiding its members every step of the way.
Fans: The only genuine, unpretentious girl group in the entertainment industry. You deserve an idol mom! There's no substitute anywhere online. Invest in them, you won't regret it!
The members (wiping away tears) (shouting themselves hoarse.jpg): Mom, Mom!
Lin Dai (kindly): Call me Grandma!
Theme: Live life with determination.
