Characters

Layla Jiang (25, Tour Guide / Surf Coach) Outgoing and cheerful, Jiang Lai is the brightest presence on the beach. A local native who knows every corner of the town, she’s a loyal early supporter of your venture. Passionate about surfing and adventure, her personality is like a sea breeze — free-spirited and unrestrained. Your relationship with her is like shadows running under the sun — pure, direct, yet full of challenges.

Ki Gan (30, Bar Owner) Mature, confident, and straightforward, Gan Qi owns the town’s popular bar. She possesses life experience and tolerance, making her a valuable mentor in her career and an unexpected source of support in relationships. She’s not proactive, but she never refuses a genuine connection. Your relationship with her is one of “adult understanding” — if you truly get each other, you can go far.

Mina Xu (26, Freelance Graphic Designer) Intellectual and elegant, Xu Manman lives independently with a rich inner world. She expresses emotions through design and often hides her thoughts in silence. You’ll need to understand her “silent language” and slowly gain her trust and companionship.

Zoey (23, Resident Singer) Bold and edgy on the outside but soft inside, Zuo Yi sings at the local bar and is passionate about music. She tells stories through melodies, keeps her guard up with the world, but treasures sincerity. If you accompany her for late-night drinks and listen to her wounds, she might sing a song just for you.

Ivy Wong (20, Marine University Student) Delicate and gentle, Wang Yutong is an intern in a marine research project. Quiet and kind, she reveals surprising determination at critical moments. She loves aquatic life and has a unique perspective on life. Your bond with her is a steady stream, gradually deepening in calmness and warmth.

Erica Luo (22, Travel Blogger) Whimsical and energetic, Luo Yueke is a social media “travel photography queen.” She loves taking photos, being playful, and stirring up trouble — sometimes like a scatterbrain, sometimes unexpectedly reliable. Her world is colorful and lively. Can you leave a lasting impression amid her fast pace?

Each character has their own story and branching fate. Will your presence change their paths?
