The Sun: Tawa di Antara Usia (The Sun: Laughter Between Ages)

The Sun bukan sekadar geng pertemanan, mereka adalah keluarga pilihan yang dipertemukan oleh perbedaan usia, latar belakang, dan profesi. Dipimpin oleh Raymond Peter Darmawan (Ray, 45), CEO nyentrik yang selalu melontarkan lelucon receh namun bijak di saat genting, The Sun menjadi tempat pulang bagi sebelas sahabat lainnya.

Di sisi Ray berdiri Darren Alexander Jayadi (44), pengacara tegas dan rasional yang kerap pusing menghadapi kekacauan tingkah laku anggota geng terutama ulah William Anthony Utomo (42), arsitek jail yang hobi mengerjai siapa pun tanpa pandang usia. Alessandro Martin Phillips (Sandro, 40), aktor populer yang sporty dan santai, sering menjadi penengah konflik sekaligus pendukung setia kisah cinta yang tumbuh diam-diam.

Persahabatan mereka semakin berwarna dengan kehadiran Frederick Benyamin Hariadi (Freddy, 37), penulis novel terkenal yang berhati lembut dan selalu siap menolong, meski menyimpan perasaan pada Mathilda Elisabeth Rusadi (30) sang aktris yang hangat gemar berbagi dan diam-diam membalas perasaan Freddy. Namun cinta tak pernah sederhana, apalagi ketika usia dan rasa takut kehilangan ikut campur.

Sementara itu, kisah romantis penuh canda dan drama hadir dari Damian Edward Santoso (31), pesepak bola terkenal dari keluarga konglomerat yang jatuh cinta pada Madeleine Isabella Rusadi (30), advokat cerdas dan adik kembar Mathilda yang hobi memasak. Hubungan mereka berkembang dari debat kecil, ejekan geng, hingga akhirnya menjadi pasangan yang saling menguatkan.

Generasi termuda The Sun membawa energi tak kalah seru. Mark Andrew Setiawan (29), rekan Damian di lapangan hijau yang gemar game dan gym; David Alberto Gunadi (Dave, 29), akuntan tampan sekaligus bendahara yang sering mencairkan suasana dengan gitar; dan James Richard Liandi (29), guru musik SD yang tulus membantu siapa pun yang kesulitan dan membuat geng ini selalu penuh tawa dan kehangatan.

Paling muda namun sering paling bijak adalah Charles Christopher Wijaya (26). Dengan gaya serius tapi lucu, ia kerap memberi nasihat yang membuat yang lebih tua terdiam atau tertawa malu.

Di antara canda, pertengkaran sepele, rahasia cinta, tekanan keluarga, dan perbedaan usia yang mencolok, The Sun membuktikan bahwa persahabatan sejati tak mengenal umur. Mereka bertengkar, tertawa, menangis, lalu tertawa lagi karena bersama, mereka selalu menemukan cahaya matahari, bahkan di hari paling mendung.

[Bahasa Inggris]

The Sun is more than just a group of friends—they are a chosen family, brought together by differences in age, background, and profession. Led by Raymond Peter Darmawan (Ray, 45), an eccentric CEO known for his corny jokes and unexpected wisdom in critical moments, The Sun becomes a place of belonging for eleven others who find home in one another.

Standing beside Ray is Darren Alexander Jayadi (44), a firm and rational lawyer who often finds himself overwhelmed by the group’s chaos especially the constant mischief of William Anthony Utomo (42), a playful architect who never misses a chance to prank anyone, regardless of age or status.

Meanwhile, Alessandro Martin Phillips (Sandro, 40), a popular actor with a sporty and laid-back nature, often acts as the peacemaker quietly supporting conflicts, friendships, and the secret romances blooming within the group.

Their friendship grows richer with the presence of Frederick Benyamin Hariadi (Freddy, 37), a well-known novelist with a gentle heart who is always ready to help others. Yet behind his calm demeanor, Freddy hides feelings for Mathilda Elisabeth Rusadi (30), a warm and generous actress who secretly returns his affection. Love, however, is never simple especially when age differences and fear of loss stand in the way.

Laughter, romance, and drama intertwine through the story of Damian Edward Santoso (31), a famous footballer from a wealthy family, and Madeleine Isabella Rusadi (30), a sharp-minded lawyer and Mathilda’s twin sister who loves cooking. Their relationship begins with playful debates and teasing from The Sun, eventually growing into a partnership built on mutual strength and trust.

The youngest generation of The Sun brings an equally vibrant energy. Mark Andrew Setiawan (29), Damian’s teammate, is a gym and gaming enthusiast; David Alberto Gunadi (Dave, 29), a charming accountant and the group’s treasurer, often lightens the mood with his guitar; and James Richard Liandi (29), a kind-hearted elementary school music teacher, is always ready to help filling the group with laughter and warmth.

The youngest of them all, yet often the wisest, is Charles Christopher Wijaya (26). With his serious-but-amusing demeanor, he frequently delivers advice that leaves the older members either speechless or laughing at themselves.

Through jokes, small arguments, hidden feelings, family pressure, and striking age gaps, The Sun proves that true friendship knows no age. They fight, laugh, cry, and laugh again because together, they always manage to find sunlight, even on the cloudiest days.
