SYNOPSIS

Edison Junior High is a renowned private school with a reputation for stellar academic performances, as well as a long-standing legend: “Whoever goes into Dorm 420 and makes it out alive, his grades will vastly improve.” Chun, a gifted student newly transferred to Edison, treats the legend with scorn. The gloomy atmosphere, distorted institutions and high peer pressures soon begin to disturb the rebellious Chun who tries to challenge everything he experiences. Little does he know that he is slowly falling into a treacherous and mysterious trap.
