"I'm not going to let you break, Hyung. I'm just going to help you finish the song."
Bang Chan is the anchor. The leader. The one who stays awake so everyone else can sleep. But lately, the anchor is dragging. Deep in a manila folder hidden beneath lyric sheets, a terrifying truth is buried: Chan's body is turning to glass, and his mind is becoming a fog. He's dying from a degenerative bone disease, and a cruel side effect of amnesia means he's forgetting his own tragedy as it happens.
He's fading away in the dark, and he doesn't even know it.
But Jeongin knows.
Armed with a crumpled "Bucket List" and a heart shattering into a million pieces, the youngest member decides to steal Chan away for two weeks of "Saturdays." No managers. No cameras. No hospitals. Just the two of them, a rented SUV, and a list of dreams that need to be caught before the light goes out.
From the salt-spray of the Australian coast to a hidden studio in Mapo, Jeongin carries the weight of two lives on his shoulders. He becomes the memory for a man who can't remember, and the strength for a man whose bones are turning to dust.
It's a race against a clock that's ticking backward. It's a secret that could break the group forever. And it all leads to a field of lavender where the final item on the list is waiting.
"Squeeze my hand five times, Innie. It means I'm still here."
