Synopsis
Juyeong navigates brutal juvenile detention politics after family tragedy, forging alliances to reclaim control over his shattered destiny.
Juyeong finds himself confined to a juvenile detention center after a violent family incident that changed his life forever. Once a hopeful teenager with dreams of a brighter future alongside his childhood friend Dayeon, he now faces the harsh reality of institutional life. As he struggles to adapt to his new environment, Juyeong discovers that survival within the detention center's walls requires more than just physical strength—it demands cunning, alliances, and an iron will. When confronted by the complex web of prison politics and power dynamics, Juyeong must decide how far he's willing to go to reclaim control over his destiny in this unforgiving world where every choice could be his last.
