In the New Tower of Babel, emotions are currency, memories are commodities, and pain is a luxury that needs to be eradicated.
Jhin, a former ace "picker" who was deprived of emotions, is now an "emotional scavenger" at the bottom of the city, numbly cleaning up the sadness and anger of being abandoned. He was like a walking empty shell, until a mysterious crystal containing "hope" pierced his dead heart like a needle.
In order to regain the lost feeling and to unlock the shocking secret behind the crystal, he made a deal with "Zero", a revolutionary who tried to ignite the entire city.
They embarked on a desperate road that betrayed the entire world. Every step is to dance with the "happy" dictator on the tip of a knife; every time he gets closer to the truth, it means tearing apart deeper lies.
When the false bliss and painful reality are in front of you, how will a person who can't even feel his heartbeat make a choice for hundreds of millions of people?
