Synopsis

Yoo Maehwa, an 18-year-old fine arts student at an arts high school, finds her once-vivid world drained of colour as she sinks into a creative slump. Each blank canvas deepens her silence, while her close friend Choi Nan watches with growing concern, torn between giving her space and pulling her back toward the light.
