Journalist Kang receives a surprising call from K-pop royalty Goo-Hara, who wants to help her with her investigation, as some of the people in the chatroom were her friends. Goo Hara, like many South Korean women is a victim of digital sex crime. Her very public battle in taking a stand against it, receives enormous coverage into her private life and she is mercilessly trolled. It’s too much for her, and will end in tragedy.
For the first time, we give the definitive account of the sex scandals that brought down some of Korea's biggest K-pop stars. It’s a tale of depravity, power and excess - hidden behind a facade of wholesome pop music.
