Addict's Lament - V

Nineteen-year-old Taehyung (Nicknamed V) is a thrill-seeker and party enthusiast, navigating the high school senior year with a constant buzz of adrenaline and substance. Known for his wild escapades, he's rarely seen without a drink or a high, frequenting clubs and after-parties to maintain his relentless pursuit of fun. His newly found addiction to drugs and alcohol is an escape from the pressure of school and the disconnection he feels from his distant family.

One night at a high-profile club, Tae meets Leo, a thoughtful and introspective boy who has a calm, grounding presence. Unlike the others Taehyung encounters, Leo partakes in the chaos but also observes it with a quiet intensity. Intrigued by Leo's different vibe, Taehyung strikes up a conversation. They quickly form a connection, with Leo offering a sense of understanding and acceptance that Tae has never experienced.
