Nineteen year old Jiayi Lin, a mixed Chinese-Jamaican aspiring singer, loses her parents in a car crash that leaves her with survivor's guilt, depression and a shattered voice. Two years later, her estranged Aunt Mei, a ruthless Korean entertainment scout, drags her to Seoul to compete in Starforge, a televised battle royale idol competition where 100 contestants fight for 7 debut spots. 
Jiayi resists- until Mei reveals her parents' debts will destroy their ancestral home in Jamaica. Trapped, Jiayi enters Starforge, but her raw, grief-stricken performances clash with the industry's polished fantasy. As she battles rivals, panic attacks, and Mei's manipulations, Jiayi rediscovers her voice by embracing her hybrid identity- but the competition's dark secrets threaten to break her completely.
