📖 SYNOPSIS
The Social Welfare Agency presents itself as a benevolent organization dedicated to saving lives. However, beneath the surface lies a clandestine operation. The Agency utilizes advanced technology, specifically cybernetic implants, to grant terminal patients a new lease on life. This process, however, is far from altruistic. The patients are meticulously conditioned, transforming them into highly skilled and efficient operatives. These cybernetically enhanced individuals are then deployed to handle the government's covert and often morally ambiguous assignments. The series delves into the ethical implications of this program, exploring the manipulation and exploitation inherent in the Agency's true purpose. It examines the lives of these young operatives and the complex relationship they have with their handlers.
