Zafire "Fire" Asfault
Occupation: Model, Student
Course: Culinary Arts (Transferee)
Zafire Asfault—nicknamed "Fire"—is a top model adored across Asia, known for gracing the covers of luxury brands and fashion magazines. She is the daughter of a successful, warm-hearted businessman who gave her everything she could ever ask for—except the freedom to truly follow her heart.
Despite her fame and upbringing, Zafire remains grounded. She's cheerful, energetic, and deeply empathetic, with a smile that lights up every room. But behind that smile is a dream she's held close since childhood: cooking. Her love for food stems from memories of her late mother, whose warmth filled their home and whose presence lingers in every flavor Zafire creates.
During high school, Zafire took weekend cooking classes and worked in small cafés, quietly nurturing her passion. But when college came, she followed her father's advice and enrolled in a design program, owing to her natural drawing skills. It didn't take long for her to realize something was missing. Gathering her courage, she confessed her unhappiness to her father—and, to her relief, he supported her decision to transfer to culinary school.
Zafire hates arrogance and avoids acting like a celebrity. To her, fame doesn't define a person's worth. She treasures her fans as friends and prefers to be treated like everyone else. Her sincerity and optimism are contagious, and she always finds something good in others, no matter the situation.
Her guilty pleasure? Ice cream. It's her comfort food, her little escape, her guaranteed smile-maker on the worst days. More than just a model or student, Zafire is a young woman chasing her dreams—with a heart as bright as her name.
Keice "Ice" Atlas
Occupation: Student Council President, Culinary Arts Student, Part-Time Chef
Course: Culinary Arts
Keice Atlas—better known by the nickname "Ice"—is the calm, collected, and commanding Student Council President of the Culinary Arts school. Born into a powerful business family, he was expected to carry on the legacy. But Keice's heart was never in boardrooms—it belonged to the kitchen.
His mother owns Sweet Dream, a popular pastry shop that sparked Keice's love for baking. Despite his natural business acumen, he rejected his father's plans for him and pursued culinary arts instead, sparking a long-standing tension between them. His younger sister, Keace, studies abroad, but their bond remains unbreakable. He's always looked out for her, often acting more like a parent than a brother.
Quiet and reserved, Keice avoids crowds and values his solitude. He's a perfectionist with little patience for nonsense, and his temper, though rarely shown, is sharp when provoked. He hides his emotions behind a cool exterior and prefers structure over spontaneity. Some students admire his strength and independence; others fear the "Coldhearted Beast" he's been nicknamed for his intimidating presence and brutally honest leadership style.
But behind his frosty demeanor is a boy who loves deeply—especially his family. Keice may act indifferent, but he's loyal to a fault. He believes in hard work, discipline, and staying grounded. Dreams, to him, are built—not wished for.
Though he may seem untouchable, Keice Atlas is a young man fiercely dedicated to what matters most: honoring his mother's legacy, protecting those he loves, and perfecting his craft.
