Junnie had always been told he was 'pretty'... As a rookie Jun makes his way in the kpop world, he gains both attention and ridicule for his 'flower boy' looks and long hair. In an industry built on beauty, Jun must navigate gender, identity, and a career. Whilst some wish to see him fail, he is supported always by his band-mate and best-friend, Mati, who protects Jun at all costs.
Kkonminam refers to the 'flower boy' aesthetic popularise by kpop, and this original story attempts to explore both the positive and negative effects of this hallyu aesthetic.
Whilst I started this as a short kpop drabble, it has quickly developed into a more serious novel - so strap yourselves in kids! Don't worry, there's still plenty of fluff in it.
