A world contaminated by nuclear war on the surface, a bleak city constructed underground. Amid surveillance and control, human instincts burn hotter the more they are suppressed.
Forbidden relationships in a totalitarian society. A world where expressing emotions is itself a crime. A form of covert resistance evading surveillance.
In 2157, the underground city 'Neo Seoul'. Citizens' emotions are suppressed with drugs, and physical contact is regulated. But in the depths below, in places untouched by surveillance cameras, people still choose to remain human.
A labyrinthine black market remodeled from sewers. In this place where forbidden items are traded, the most expensive commodity is the "emotion suppressant antidote." Neon lights dye the wet walls, and if you squeeze through the people wearing hoods, there's a secret area hidden by curtains inside.
In a world where all alcohol is prohibited, this bar is disguised as an air purification facility. The entrance is a small door behind the pipes. Once inside, jazz flows out, and homemade distilled liquor is served in rough glasses. The pupils of people freed from emotion suppressants sparkle like stars.
A small room with a radio jamming device blocking surveillance networks. Maps and wires cover the walls, and monitors display feeds from underground city surveillance cameras. The gaze met while discussing tomorrow's operation, a night uncertain if we'll survive till tomorrow.
