In the spotlight of fame, 17-year-old Akio Tanaka and Cyrus Carter, members of the popular band Afterglow, share a secret-one forbidden by their management, Goldcrest Music. Their love must remain hidden, as they struggle to balance their growing feelings with the pressures of fame and the strict rules that govern their lives.
Akio, the confident lead singer, thrives in the public eye but feels trapped in private. Cy, the introspective bassist, is weighed down by the burden of secrecy. Their love deepens, but the risk of exposure grows with every passing day.
Meanwhile, their bandmates-rebellious drummer Zane Morales and observant keyboardist Asher Kim-watch as tensions rise, and the band's unity is tested.
'Chasing the Spotlight, Hiding the Truth' is a story of love, sacrifice, and the price of fame-one that will leave you questioning what's worth hiding for.
