Synopsis

Perhaps nostalgia is nothing more than another form of love. Kujirai Reiko, who works at a real estate agency in the nostalgic town of Kowloon Walled City, is in love with her senior, Kudo Hajime. Hajime knows every corner of Kowloon and often takes Reiko to his favorite places, yet the distance between them remains the same. One day, Reiko is startled when a café worker mistakes her for Hajime’s lover. She also stumbles upon a photograph—one that shows Hajime with a woman who looks exactly like her. The forgotten memories of her past, the mystery behind her duplicate self, and the hidden truths buried within Kowloon… As past and present collide, romance becomes the key to unraveling the unknown.
