The year's 2178.
In 2057, the war between the USA and North Korea came at an alarming height. Steven Kerling, former president of the United States, crossed the line when he spoke the following on international television: "North Korea is incapable of doing anything. Their leader might look like a dangerous guy, but in reality, he's the biggest coward the world has ever known. He talks a lot, but there isn't any value in what he's saying. I bet he wouldn't dare to even attack us."
North Korean leader, Kim Minho, proved him the opposite.
The United States were attacked and conquered. The rest of the world followed.
In 2078, an apocalypse happened. America, north and south, was wiped off the earth, together with Australia and western Europe. This event is remember each year at the 8th of June.
North Korea now rules over what's left of the world. The leader, Choi Min Jun, is a very severe man. He tries to keep the country as it is. And he's not afraid of any punishment.
Any criminal that gets arrested, if it's fair or not fair, will be executed. There's no excuse, there's no way out. And especially, if you are descended from a survivor, from someone who escaped the natural disaster.
This is the situation 19 year old Troye Sivan's growing up in. His ancestors survived and moved to Seoul, exactly 100 years ago. He lives a happy life, together with his parents, his two brothers and his sister. He studies at university, and goes out every so often.
But when he gets into a manifestation on accident, and that manifestation gets put down by the police, he gets arrested.
In prison, he meets the fabulous Tyler Oakley, the brain behind the manifestation, who will turn his world upside down.
"I know I probably shouldn't feel this way. I shouldn't be disappointed or angry that he no longer loves me the way he used to. I know it's my fault, after all I was the one to make the choice. But if I could go back and choose again, I want him to know that he would always be my pick. I was foolish. I was young. I let fame get to my head. Why must you Remind Me of the past that I want to forget so desperately.
I should've chose him.
I should've held him closer.
I should've told him that I loved him.
But, is it possible that through it all, I can chose again?"
