The novel opens with a description of the "oddballad advertising agency," an "obstaclesome, aristocratic academy." The narrator, a student at the academy, is introduced to the students, who are "so-called love" due to his "excellent grades." The students are allowed to ride horses around the campus, and the narrator is amazed at the "eye-opener" that is the academy. He notices that the arrogant and domineering male lead is blocking the path of the young master, and he begins to notice the "stiff heroine" who is blocking his way. The two of them begin to fall in love, and they decide to "stop it at once."
