Coming of age

So much more than a place of learning, high school is where lifelong friendships are made and tough life lessons are learned. Growing up together, Kang Jia Wei (Zhai Zi Lu) and Xu Jing Jing (Dai Lu Wa) have been friends for as long as either of them can remember. Over the years, their circle of friends has grown but their friendship has remained strong.&nbsp;

Having learned, laughed, cried, and cheered each other on as they’ve each made their way through the various ups and downs of life, this tight-knit group of friends has only grown closer over the years. But some things are bound to change over time. Now in high school, Jia Wei and Jing Jing are beginning to see that some relationships are bound to grow even closer while others are destined to drift apart.

With more lessons ahead of them to learn and more of life’s challenges to navigate their way through, will this group of friends have what it takes to remain strong no matter what might lie ahead?&nbsp;
