2037

In the dystopian year 2037, Yoon-young, a bright and ambitious 19-year-old, is determined to become a civil servant. However, her aspirations are brutally shattered when she's falsely accused of murdering a fellow student. The evidence against her appears convincing, and she's ultimately convicted of the crime. Yoon-young is sent to the bleak, high-security women's prison, known as the '2037 Correctional Facility.' Upon her arrival, she's greeted by the ruthless and unfeeling prison authorities, as well as the hardened inmates. The strict rules and regime enforce an atmosphere of fear and despair, with prisoners forced to wear distinctive wristbands that emit an electric shock if they misbehave. Within the confines of the prison, Yoon-young meets a diverse group of women, each with their own stories, struggles, and motivations. There's Ji-sun, the prison's internal leader, who commands a level of respect from her peers and the authorities alike. Then there's Hye-ji, a rebellious and fiery spirit who dreams of escaping the prison. As Yoon-young navigates the complex social hierarchy of the facility, she learns to adapt and survive in this environment of oppression. Despite her efforts, Yoon-young finds herself struggling to prove her innocence. Convinced of her own guilt, the authorities show little interest in uncovering the truth behind her conviction. With the help of her fellow inmates, Yoon-young begins to unravel the mysteries surrounding her case. A cryptic message on a discarded piece of paper serves as a starting point, leading Yoon-young down a path of investigation and discovery. As she digs deeper, Yoon-young uncovers a web of corruption and deceit that reaches the highest echelons of the government. The truth behind her conviction begins to emerge, revealing a sinister plot to manipulate and control the population. The prison, once a place of confinement, is revealed to be a tool for social engineering and oppression, designed to suppress dissent and opposition. As Yoon-young continues on her quest for the truth, she puts herself and her fellow inmates in danger. Ji-sun's leadership is tested as she's faced with an increasingly desperate situation. With tensions rising and the prison authorities cracking down on dissent, Yoon-young's search for the truth becomes an existential fight for survival. Throughout the prison, whispers of an impending 'Re-education Program' circulate. Rumors suggest that the program will target certain prisoners for re-education and re-socialization. Those who participate will be granted a release from the prison, but at a terrible cost: their memories, their identities, and potentially even their free will. Yoon-young knows that participation is not an option; she must clear her name and expose the truth behind the prison's sinister agenda. With the help of her friends, Yoon-young launches a desperate bid for freedom and justice. They embark on a perilous journey to expose the corruption within the prison and the government. Hye-ji's knowledge of the prison's layout and Ji-sun's resourcefulness prove invaluable as they navigate the treacherous landscape. As the stakes grow higher, Yoon-young is forced to confront her own past and the circumstances that led to her imprisonment. Her innocence is revealed, and the real killer is tracked down. But the prison authorities stop at nothing to maintain their control, and Yoon-young's quest for the truth puts her in direct conflict with the heart of the oppressive regime. In a thrilling climax, Yoon-young and her friends take a stand against the prison's authorities, fighting for their rights and their freedom. With the system closing in, they're forced to confront the true horror of the dystopian world they're trapped in. Will Yoon-young succeed in clearing her name and exposing the truth, or will she become a casualty of the oppressive regime that has ensnared her?
