In the summer of 2006, 15-year-old Lim Jae-hyun came to Seoul from Incheon and stood in the practice room of YG Entertainment. He has nothing - his father died of liver cancer, and the girl he had a crush on, Han Xiuya, stopped at the age of fourteen forever after pushing him away in a car accident. He didn't even have time to say "like". He only has a watch with Xiuya's name engraved on it, and a promise: to live to the top for her.
Here, he met G-Dragon, the talented boy and YG's most anticipated future star. Quan Zhilong said to him: "Why do you think you can debut?" Lin Zaixian replied: "Because I will make the president have to choose me."
From this sentence, the two people's lives became entangled.
From the practice room to the stage, from debut to peak, from lies to lies, from the cold war to reunion. It took Lim Jae-hyun eight years to go from "Fifty Ten" to the Grammys, six years to digest the sounds he heard at a party that he shouldn't have heard, and two years to train himself from 43 kilograms to 65 kilograms in the army. Quan Zhilong spent fourteen years waiting for him to tell the truth, and two years waiting for him to return from the army.
They couldn't say the word "like", so they wrote it into a song. "Rose Boy", "Borrowing It", "Time Traveling in Memory", "Loser", "Lemon" and "Baby" - six songs, six unspeakable secrets.
This is a story about waiting and missing, music and silence, loss and reunion. Spanning twenty-three years, from Incheon to Seoul, from Seoul to Los Angeles, from Los Angeles to London, and from London back to Incheon. One person ran a long way, and the other person waited for him for a long time.
If you can't say it out loud, write it into a song. Those who can't wait will wait forever.
