Descriptions:

Arkie "Aster" Davino loves music. He loves performing on stage. But sometimes, even passion isn't enough to keep someone from being sucked dry by the weight of public expectations.

Burned out by life as a P-Pop idol, Aster decides to take a short vacation in the countryside. In La Union, he meets an awkward yet endearing fan who reminds him why he fell in love with music in the first place.

Alas Del Mundo has long felt as though his life has been standing still. That while the whole world moves forward, he's been left behind. And it's a feeling he escapes through the music of GALAX-E, his favorite P-Pop group.

Being a fan of GALAX-E's leader Aster should have been enough. Yet Fate, with its strange sense of humor, places the very man Alas admires right in his neighborhood.

As the distance between idol and fan begins to blur, Alas can't help but wonder: Does he have the right to reach for a star he was only ever meant to admire from afar?

Description:

For what reason does one wake up every day?

People had always thought the life of ISAAC RUIZ couldn't be more perfect. Everything he wanted, he would get with his money and influence. What anyone didn't know was his real motivation to keep on living -- something that was silly for others, but a salvation for him.

For office employee FLORENCE VILLENA, there was no longer any meaning to his existence. Nothing could fill the void he had been experiencing inside him anymore, and he was convinced the world was better off without him in it.

At twenty-eight years old, LAURENCE VILLEGAS had a lot of reasons to wish to just sleep forever. Since losing his home and family, the universe had rarely been kind to him. And yet, he chose to survive, time and again, if only for the hope of seeing his life get a little better.

On Friday the thirteenth of January 2023, fates started to entangle as Laurence died, Florence killed himself, and Isaac lost his reason to live. Nine months after the incidents, a new dawn fell upon those three lives when a dead man's soul reawakened in someone else's body.
