Plastic Sky
Indie Pop

"Tell me, who survives. When the winner's dead inside?"
What happens when success is everything — and it’s still not enough?
“Plastic Sky” is a song about South Korea's high-achievement, high-pressure culture — where exam scores define futures, faces are sculpted for acceptance, and youth are quietly burning out under corporate skyscrapers.
This isn’t just a song. It’s a reflection on a culture trapped in an unbalanced version of modernity — what some call the “Orange” value system. Status, image, and performance reign supreme… but at what cost?
