[second person point of view]
Y/N grew up in South Korea, dreaming to become a singer. She soon achieved that dream after years of working  since young. She was an independent artist with no Label at first, but later in her career, she signed to a Label as an artist. During that time period, she explored many different cultures in the music industry. She became friends with many other artists, including K-Pop idols. She also collaborated with a few and made wonderful music. In that process, she learnt a lot about the stigma created in the K-Pop industry, via her friends. The culture of K-Pop really frustrated her, and she wanted to bring a change in this culture. The thing was, it was harder than it seemed like. She was always motivated by songs like "21st Century Girls" by BTS and "Only The Young" by Taylor Swift, and kept moving on, in order to achieve her goal. Hate, death threats and more kept coming at her, but was she strong enough to avoid them? At a point of time it was becoming too much that she wanted to give up. However, she was determined and told herself that giving up is not in her blood. She uses a set of self-constructed methods to reach her aim. Will she be able to bring the change or will have to leave it? What are these clever methods she uses?

This is a very serious story, in which the real world's truths are discussed. K-Pop idols, especially female idols, are severely pressurised to look like a typical idol. This is something that has to change. I don't know how fast this message will spread, but maybe this story helps bring a change in people's mindset. Being in India, this is probably the most I can do to improve the K-Pop culture. I am very sorry, but I am including the death of certain idols along with this story. This story is also slightly a j-hope fanfiction. I wanted to make it a little bit romantic too, while Y/N is dealing with the issues. 

[23.12.2020] The same day this thought even developed inside me.

A story of a girl who gave up on her dreams, because of bullying. She was belittled, underestimated, underappreciated... All she wants at her current young age, after giving up on her dreams, is to fulfill her dream of meeting her favourite Korean boy band PCxM or at least attending one of their concerts in Korea, as she knows they will not hold a concert in her country soon. What happens next will change her life. No, not what you think. She will become their... Is what happens with her sheer luck or the result of hard work? She was quick-witted, got a grasp of why he was trying to get closer to her more and more. She liked that feeling of being taken care of, the special treatment one gets when they're liked by someone. This special treatment is the transitional stage from being friends or close friends to becoming more than just close friends. The unjustified jealousy, the caring for the daily schedule of their love, picking them up from places, the reasonless nonstop texting, helping their loved, making themselves available always even if they're busy, hanging out with them frequently... She felt she was using him, but she wasn't the one to drown him in love with her. She didn't seduce him, so she acted clueless and continued being herself with him and with everyone else to enjoy this feeling and treatment. Wandering together, he wondered: "Why are single up till now? I'm sure many men tried to court you, including rich men of course." Agitated, she stated sarcastically: "Do you know? I've always hated in Korean, or other countries series and stories, the typical plot of a rich man falling for a poor girl. Why can't she be something for her own good and then she can marry whoever she wants, but of course if she loves him without the money involved?! It's annoying how people think that all a girl needs is makeup and money with a handsome man indeed! I just need to achieve my dreams and they are many, but, indeed, marrying a rich handsome man isn't included."

A Coincidence (SHINee fanfic)

65 parts Complete

This was my first fanfiction and I was fairly new to k-pop at the time as well. Yes - this book is cringy and full of cliche. Yes - it also might not read very well nowadays. I just thought I'd add some context about the time when I wrote this before you decide if you still want to read it or not! By chance, you find yourself wrapped in the exciting and new world that is the music business. With the help of your new-found friends, you become determined to make it to the top. Struggling to maintain friendships in two different countries while working hard for a big company keeps you very busy... Will rumours break your relationships apart, or will others break them for you? Who will be the one by your side through it all? Partially available in German thanks to Bienchen121!!!
