Thrown into a foreign land with a different language, culture and standards, Charlie and four other boys with differences ranging between the heavens and earth are put together to form the group, aXle, only to find that behind the glamour of k-pop's lights and perfect white smiles is a hidden world of struggles, tears, first times and even unspoken love.
