Ninet (Tayeb) is a young, unknown girl from the country who comes to Tel-Aviv and works with her cousin Ronnie (Niv Raz) at his cafeteria in Yardena Tamir's (Alisa Rosen) Academy of Music. After school hours are over Ninet goes to the classroom and sings. Her talent is serendipitously discovered by the music teacher, Doron Sadeh (Sa'ar Badishi) who has her enrolled in the school. Ninet falls in love with Zohar Lahat (Ran Danker) and the couple go on a rocky road towards happiness disturbed mainly by Noa Shahar (Efrat Baumwald) who wants Zohar for herself. Noa’s best friend Dana Snir (Aliyana Bakyer) and her mother Naomi (Hana Laslow) help her by driving Zohar and Ninet apart.

Three years after graduating from the academy, Ninet and Zohar became the country's most well-known couple and they plan to get married. They have moved into the luxury "Sun and Beach" apartment complex in Tel-Aviv and, surprisingly enough, their friends from the academy have also moved into the complex. Due to the ending of the first season in which Givon (Guy Zu-Aretz) was killed while trying to murder Ninet and frame Naomi, his brother Ariel (Oshri Cohen) and sister (Yael Sharoni) are in town and plan their revenge on Ninet, Naomi and Noa. While conspiring to assassinate them, Ariel falls in love with Ninet.
Season 3
edit73 episodes
At the beginning of the third season viewers discover that the first two seasons of the show were actually a TV show called her song. The two leading actors in her song, Rani Aviv who played Zohar Lahat (Ran Danker) and Yonatan Barak who played Ariel Silver (Oshri Cohen), are preparing to enter the army a day after they finished filming the last episode of the second season. Rani goes to the paratroopers' unit and Jonathan goes to a military band. Ninet is forced to perform service work in the band after her partner indicted her for an act he committed himself. All the other characters from the first two seasons occasionally appear by their real names. New characters join the show. At the end of the season Ninet and Yotam start dating after a rivalry.
(The reason the series' plot changed was due to Ninet's tight schedules and she could not continue the third season as regularly as in the other seasons, and yet the creators did not want to replace Ninet with another actress. In addition, the second season ended with a full ending and was planned to be the final season. Towards the middle of the third season Ninet returns to play her main character regularly until the end of the serie.)

Karin blackmails Yotam that if he does not kill Ninet she will tell her all the secrets. Yotam starts cheating on Ninet, Ninet has a relationship with Rani who feels lonely and they both find solace in each other.
