Summary
Remember, all the government posters say, it was the Marked that destroyed the world.
The Old World was lost to famine and calamity and a new, harsher one has risen in its place. A city divided into sectors, ruled by a king and his chaebol court, where the Marked struggle to eke out a living in poverty and oppression, and one mistake can get you sanctioned forever - lost to hard labor in the factories and greenhouses or to life as a companion trapped in the gilded apartments of the inner sector elite.
But a revolution is stirring in the shadows and everything is about to change.
(Or: Hoseok runs an underground radio program; Namjoon and Seokjin dream of building a better world from their golden cage; Taehyung and Jimin desperately search for lost family; and Yoongi and Jungkook are just trying to survive.)

Summary
Lightweight champion boxer Jeon Jeongguk is pretty sure he has blood in his eyes when he spots a beautiful journalist at his post-fight press conference after a decisive victory. And he's pretty sure flirting with said journalist on national television isn't exactly the best PR strategy when he's already a controversial fighter in the circuit.
But he's also sure that Park Jimin, the journalist in question, wants exclusive access to the story of Jeongguk coming face-to-face once again with an opponent who put him in the hospital 5 years ago.
Or maybe Jimin just wants exclusive access to Jeongguk.

Summary
Best friends Jimin and Jeongguk made a deal at age 18 - if neither one of them is married by age 30, they'll just marry each other to spare themselves the stress of finding the perfect spouse.
Fast forward twelve years. Jimin and Jeongguk haven't seen each other since the night they made that deal, but a mutual friend's wedding brings them back together like two magnets, and the old deal that they had both tucked away resurfaces, making them both question exactly what a happy marriage looks like and if they want that with each other.
