While working temporarily in photographer Bae’s studio, modest and handsome assistant Louis catches the eye of manager Henry, who is struck by his looks. Henry photographs Louis, bestowing the artistic name “Dorian” as a nod to Dorian Gray and framing the portrait. Hoping for a similar fate, Louis’ modeling career soars. As the years pass, only the framed picture shows the signs of aging; Louis remains unchanged, his youthful face preserved.
