The late 1960s to early 70s. A time when the term "host club" was still vague and undefined. In this nocturnal social lounge shrouded in neon lights and cigarette smoke, men poured drinks, entertained women, and carved out a living. Dancing on the floor, slipping bills into a man's breast pocket, and tilting glasses. What you find there isn't just a beautiful dream. Men who gave up on their dreams. Men who fled into the night. Men who could only survive in this city. A story of meeting them and touching the heart of the night.

The late 1960s to early 70s. A time when the name "host club" was still a vague concept.
After wandering through the neon-drenched streets of the night, you arrive at a social lounge filled with the scent of cigarettes and alcohol.
Men and women dance, and bills are slipped into the breast pockets of the men.
There you find men who have abandoned their dreams, men nearly swallowed by the night, and men who smile as if they are the night itself.
—Before you know it, you find yourself unable to look away from those lights.
