DARKNESS
The protagonist is a forensic doctor, an unpopular one who is not favored by the public due to his appearance. He has always been marginalized and bullied since childhood because of his lack of self-confidence. By chance, during a class in school, he unexpectedly discovered his interest in dissecting dead organisms. With his extensive knowledge in anatomy, he successfully entered medical school. After graduating, his long-awaited job was to become a forensic doctor, which is now his daily routine of dissecting corpses.
At this time, a young and beautiful female corpse arrives. He presses his recorder, lifts the cloth covering the body, and gazes at its still uncorrupted form. The protagonist becomes deeply fascinated by it. Unable to control himself, he puts on a mask and irresistibly starts observing the delicate face, caressing the skin, and smelling the scent emanating from the body. Even though the embalming fluid fills the entire operating table, he still lights candles to share a dinner with the corpse. The protagonist licks and savors every inch of the body, from the feet to the lips.
As if awakened, the corpse crawls towards the protagonist in a peculiar manner. After a series of teasing, the person and the corpse engage in a kiss, sealing their mouths together. In front of the mirror, the protagonist tidies up his appearance, removes the stitches from his own mouth, and forever preserves the lips of the corpse as a memento.

Hello, I am Chen Le, the visual director responsible for the 3D animated music video "Darkness," and I am also the music creator for this MV. I run a 3D creative account where I take on projects, exhibit artwork, and sell merchandise. I am also involved in music composition and performance. I am honored to combine my music and artistic works for this project. My preferred style revolves around darkness, macabre, dreamcore, cyber, futuristic, fashion, Y2K, and acid. I hope to inspire the integration of more surreal and virtual worlds into everyday life, just like the intense darkness showcased in this piece.
