A childhood without love and discipline, because a dangerous friendship is stained for life. Legal forgiveness has a time limit, but what about human forgiveness? Have it? People are used to labeling people: bad boys, murderers... The magic of these labels is that they are naturally isolated from the crowd and become a minority. The fate and rights of the minority are always on the verge of being trampled on.

No one cares about why the young man made mistakes in the past, and no one believes how the young man has changed now. The young man's cautious struggle and dream of becoming an ordinary person are always fragile and vulnerable. The past he bears is a ticking time bomb. Detonate with a bang, and let life and fantasy disappear together.

We can only pray that the man who has been labelled as a horrible minority is not himself.... But, who can be sure?
