Synopsis

At the press conference, camera flashes lit up the room like a sea of stars.

“Mr. Zhao Nansheng, there are rumors that you’re close with every member of the fourth-generation girl groups. Is that true?”

Zhao Nansheng leaned back in his chair, a carefree smile playing on his lips. He said nothing.

“We’ve also heard that nearly all the rookies in the fifth-generation girl groups are your fans, and many see you as their ideal senior. Is that right?”

He lightly tapped the tabletop with his fingertips, still refusing to take the bait.

The reporter took a deep breath and posed the biggest question of the day. “And the dating rumors between you and Song Yuqi of (G)I-DLE, who only recently debuted, ”

Before the reporter could finish, Zhao Nansheng looked toward the cameras and replied in a casual yet perfectly clear tone:

“Let me clear this up. It’s not a rumor. It’s true.”

The room fell silent for three seconds. Then the entire Korean entertainment industry exploded.

Zhao Nansheng arrives on the Korean entertainment scene with the [Legendary Musician System], becoming the youngest top-tier solo artist in SM’s history.

A natural melody genius, he pours heart-stirring tenderness into his R&B, while his K-pop production packs enough punch to sweep the charts. His Korean releases dominate streaming charts year after year, and his English singles debut at the top of music charts around the world. He is widely acknowledged in the industry as the unmatched master of both lyrics and composition.

But the title of “music god” matters less to him than being a carefree gossip-lover on the front lines of the rumor mill. He hates putting on airs, loves joining in on the fun, and spends every day following the latest gossip in Korean entertainment.

Any K-Entertainment or K-pop Stories Set in a Parallel World?

So, I've recently gotten into girl groups and want to read K-pop stories. But I really can't handle fanfiction based on real people or adaptations of real life, so I wanted to ask if there are any K-pop entertainment-industry stories set in a parallel world.
