Storyline

Posh means “rich” or “upper-class”. Thus, it is the story of the groups of rich teenagers and poorest teenagers. The latter is known as “KAPOSH” (the conjoined slang term derived from kapós, meaning “insufficient”, and posh itself). The members of rich teenagers are Rea, Vaness, Hayca, PJ, Princess (who is PJ’s cousin and was discovered she was really from a poor family), and Ivan, while the poorest are Iwa, Gian, Vivo, Nikki, Vince, and Ashley (who pretends as a rich girl to be assimilated to her rich friends).
