Johan grew up in a small town, and his family did not understand his passion for music.

As an adult, Johan leaves town and goes to the city to try to achieve his dream, but he is faced with the harsh reality of the music industry.
In the city, Johan earns a living by working various jobs, but he never gives up his passion for music. He falls into deeper and deeper despair after several failures and setbacks. One day, however, a music producer he met by chance recognizes his talent and offers Johan another chance. Through this opportunity, Johan is able to let his music go to the world and finally achieve his dream.
