/ NUCLEAR WINTER

/ PEOPLE ARE LIVING UNDERGROUND

/ COMMUNICATION BETWEEN UNDERGROUND VILLAGES/TOWNS HAS DIED OUT

/ WHEN SEOUL-3 (THIS PARTICULAR VILLAGE/TOWN) STARTS RUNNING OUT OF SUPPLIES (AFTER 47 YEARS OF SUBMERSION; THE SUPPLIES WERE MEANT TO LAST AT LEAST 50 YEARS WHICH WAS THE AMOUNT OF TIME SCIENTISTS SAID WAS NEEDED TO MAKE THE WORLD HABITABLE AGAIN), NO ONE WANTS TO GO OUTSIDE

/ SO, KIDS UNDER 20 (CONSIDERED LEGAL AGE) WHO HAVE COMMITTED CRIMES ARE CONSIDERED EXPENDABLE AND THUS ARE THE ONES SENT OUT ON THE JOURNEY TO FIND ANOTHER SETTLEMENT

 

 

/ PLOTLINES COULD BE THE CRIMES THEY COMMITTED (VERY SMALL THINGS LIKE TAKING AN EXTRA PIECE OF BREAD, DRINKING TOO MUCH WATER OR STAYING OUT PAST CURFEW OR SOMETHING ALONG THOSE LINES)
