Once a rising star in the popular band Rookie, Connie suddenly vanished from the spotlight after a fellow member stole one of his songs. He quit the band without explanation and disappeared from the public eye. Five years later, after constant persuasion from his longtime fan Louie, Connie reluctantly joins a band at his college called Dead Core, and instantly becomes the talk of campus. But things get complicated when his mysterious roommate Mika, who seems oddly familiar, begins inserting himself into Connie’s life. From day one, Mika insists they’d make the perfect graduation project partners…and he’s not taking no for an answer.
