The Start Of Something New.
This book is about the trials of the Kpop Industry. It's meant to be as realistic as possible.
the book Itself is fake, but the contents involved in it are real.
WARNINGS; ❗️❗️❗️❗️
SENSITIVE TOPICS SUCH AS;
social media Bullying
getting taken advantage of
insecurity
boy love/Yaoi
internalized Homophobia and colorism
infantilizing (treating an adult as a child/baby)
Cursing
+more to be put
Colorism is when you are being discriminated against because of your skin color. This and homophobia are extremely common in South Korea. if you are deemed too "tan," you are considered ugly. Idols that this has happened to are
jhope & Taehyung (BTS) by RM & Media
Hwasa (MAMAMOO) by the Media
Kai (EXO) By the Media
idols who have been infinatlized are, like every maknae but;
jungkook from BTS
Sunoo From ENHYPEN
Tzuyu from TWICE
as I previously mentioned before, this is set to be as realistic as possible. Topics such as Yaoi, Homophobia and colorism will happen later on in the story.
I highly suggest for you to be old enough to know these topics. So st least 13+ so it'll help you understand what goes into being an idol.
ALSO I AM NOT AN IDOL NOR HAVE I BEEN A TRAINEE. I have been a kpop fan for a while and have spent a lot of time in looking into kpop's Darkside. If I got anything wrong tell me please!
you have been warned ⚠️
(I don't own the cover either)
