Set in contemporary London, the narrative unfolds in a realm where "Shadows" emerge from human dread and unease. A young woman travels abroad for studies, only to become entangled in a strange event upon entering university. In an unfamiliar city, the girl stumbles into "Café Forbidden," a secret establishment that opens solely at midnight. There she encounters a group of attractive men working there, where protectors who uphold the barrier between people and shadows gather in a dimly lit courtyard and whispered legends.
