Synopsis
Ambiguous lovers Shougo and Ryousei confront obsession, exploitation, and sibling rivalry amid a pivotal Tokyo art exhibition.
Ryousei and Shougo are involved in a continuous and ambiguous sexual relationship. By claiming Ryousei to be his, Shougo thought that it would help to change his own feelings of helplessness, regret and loneliness. Although captivated by Shougo, Ryousei himself slowly began to realize that he was just being used. An opportunity arrives for both Shougo and Ryousei to display their painting at Shougo's elder brother's art exhibition in Tokyo. For Shougo, who has a complex about his elder brother ever since childhood, his thought of "I may be able to return to Tokyo if I succeed in it" gradually turned into pressure. Beneath the starry sky, a paint brush paints a story of youthful love. (Source: xiaojiangworld)
