A simple city. A simple city where people eat at cafes and purchase flowers for cheesy dates. Dainty couples looking at each other with sickly heart-eyes, shy hands desiring to be intertwined, but neither bold enough to take what they want. French fries and milkshake dates in a booth at the mall, giving young pairs a fake sense of security.
Nerve-wracking football games on Friday proceeded to an after-party only the in-crowd was allowed into, and Saturday spent hanging out with friends.
Drunk young adults stumbling with their heading in the clouds, oblivious to the horrors night brings upon people like them. They pass light posts which flicker and shed not only light but also an eerie feeling, doubling as the only hope for the innocents and trouble for the sinners.
Seoul, South Korea. An ordinary town for ordinary people, a haven for troublemakers, and an endless pit for people trying to stop them. The police there weren't decent nor qualified, and so the town fell victim and became the ultimate playground to hooligans who thrived in the night.
They knew the secrets of these haunted streets, and the shadows loomed too high over this particular city for it to emit normal light and raise normal children.
Prime examples of this broken system:
Kim Taehyung, a boy, born captivated by crime. He grew up to be grateful, but not completely whole, in both soul and mind.
Park Jimin and Jeon Jungkook; born fascinated with murder. They grew up psychotic but not without a broken understanding of common sense.
You'll find that in any place where darkness dares lurk, light is hard to come by. A camera flash may brighten it, but only for a second. But maybe all it needs is a push to clear the clouds, to let the sun shine as it should, and maybe that push all depended on one Kim Taehyung. And as for the clouds; maybe Park Jimin and Jeon Jungkook would evaporate in the heat of their sun. Maybe. Or maybe, he would join them on the ever-turning carousel of greed and crime.
Welcome to the playground of your dreams, made For the Messed-up Minds.
