n the hidden depths of a cold, high-tech laboratory beneath the streets of Seoul, Dr. Kuro, a brilliant but ruthless scientist, is on the verge of unlocking the secret to immortality. His method? Extracting the life essence from unwilling human captives. Jae-hyun Kim, a young artist, is Kuro’s latest victim, whose essence may hold the key to Kuro’s twisted experiment. But Dr. Kuro is not without opposition. Z, his former colleague turned enemy, is determined to stop Kuro before he succeeds, risking everything to save Jae-hyun and put an end to Kuro’s experiments once and for all. As Kuro’s obsession grows, so too does the danger—both from Z’s attempts to stop him and from the shadowy organization funding his work, the Secret Enterprise. Will Kuro achieve eternal life, or will his dark ambitions unravel under the weight of his own twisted creation? Prepare to step into a world where science and morality collide, where the line between life and death is blurred, and where the price of immortality may be more than anyone can bear.
