Novel blurb:
Jiang Tinghan is a professional fan-site photographer. She's been following idols for years, and there's only one idol who's her true favorite: G-Dragon. Though she privately follows countless idols on tour, she's only ever run a fan site for Kwon Jiyong.
She waited for her idol to finish his military service, only for him to settle into retirement. At last, Jiang Tinghan couldn't resist and went running into the arms of other oppas.
Where does she get the money, you ask?
Because she's the one and only Chinese money-guzzling beast~ ( ̄▽ ̄~)~
In 2020, an account called “FrozenDiamond” appeared out of nowhere, dropping a god-tier photo of Jeon Wonwoo from the 2018 Dream Concert.
Black jacket, white shirt, black hair lightly dampened by the drizzle, a fresh face, and long, captivating eyes. Countless Carats, especially the 6 moms, screamed in excitement.
Then a flood of old and new Seventeen photos hit the Carats. The oppas shone in flames, pouring rain, and darkness, brimming with youthful spirit. They perfectly embodied a passionate ensemble cast, transporting fans right back to the old days.
Carats: @FrozenDiamond! Who are you, exactly?
@FrozenDiamond: Chinese.
Starting with SVT, Jiang Tinghan's tour list expanded without end, just like NCT's.
The unnie never got involved in fan drama. She just cranked out photos, sometimes editing and posting them as soon as an event ended. Fans called her “a high-quality fan-site photographer!” and “the perfect woman of the fan-site world!”
At first, fans of the different groups had no idea that the accounts for all these fan sites were run by the same person. Then a fan who followed two groups made a post asking
【Who's this beautiful, long-haired girl in a mask? She looks so familiar. I think I've seen her at concerts, more than once, but today's my first TXT concert?】
SEVENTEEN fan: 【She looks like our legendary fan-site photographer, ‘FrozenDiamond.’ She went to all seven music-show stages just to get perfect individual fancams of all thirteen members. I still rewatch them.】
Stray Kids fan: 【No, that's clearly our ‘Coolkids.’ Her calendar merch sold like crazy, and JYP even invited her to collaborate on designs. People with a grudge accused her of being a sasaeng, but she only followed public schedules.】
TXT fan: 【Huh? Isn't that ‘CUTomorrow,’ the veteran fan-site photographer who's been with our group since their debut? Ahhh, the fan freebies she makes are so pretty! She made each member a hand-sewn plush charm, and the members themselves loved them...】
ENHYPEN fan: 【Wait, she looks like our fan-site photographer ‘AbloodC,’ whose incredible photos got me into the group and who kindly replies to fans' venting DMs. The teaser she edited herself looked even better than the official one. Calling her an all-rounder is no exaggeration!】
SM fan who came for the gossip: 【Isn't she the fan-site photographer who follows NCT and NCT Dream? Her photos are fast and gorgeous, and people often use them for comment control. Check out @AnywayThey'reAllNCTSoTheyMustBeOneSubunit.】
Netizens: “???!!!”
Fans compared notes and discovered she'd covered Hybe, JYP, and SM, and even had a presence at Starship and WK1. Every fandom had loads of fans volunteering to be her legs.
【Isn't it exhausting to have this many secret identities?!】
【Unnie, I truly worship you!】
【Could this be the fan-site world's own “no fixed stance”?】
【Unnie gives the word, and the whole army goes into action!】
【Now this is a true K-pop Purple Star, a real K-pop earthquake!】
YG fans found out and cried: Are our Blackpink, Winner, iKON, and Treasure not good enough?
The gossip-hungry netizens kept following the trail and actually spotted Jiang Tinghan in G-Dragon's 2017 documentary!
Fans from yet another fandom joined the fray: 【Isn't this GD's major fan-site photographer, Coldragon?!】
Netizens suddenly understood: An ancient true god had been reborn! No wonder she didn't follow YG artists. She was afraid of running into her ex-husband~
Kwon Jiyong, who had already successfully gotten close to her: Hey, hey, hey, I've already won her over, okay?!
After their relationship was revealed, the idols Jiang Tinghan had followed in the past all had complicated feelings.
“Help: What do I do if my biggest fan suddenly becomes my senior's girlfriend? I'm desperate!”
*
The first time Kwon Jiyong saw Jiang Tinghan away from the cameras was in a small, niche coffee shop. Her PMO hat and little daisy crossbody bag with a missing petal made it obvious she was a GD fan.
When his bodyguard went over to ask, the girl stood up. Her beautiful features looked irritated and sharp. “I'm not becoming a trainee, I'm not giving you my number, and I don't want to make friends. Thanks.”
Then she saw Kwon Jiyong and instantly turned sincere. “Is that GD oppa? It's okay if you don't make a comeback. Get plenty of rest and be happy.”
After leaving, Kwon Jiyong remembered that she was the fan-site photographer who'd followed him to offline events many times. She was one of the few longtime fans he followed on Weibo.
He logged back into Weibo for the first time in a long while and saw
【@Coldragon (verified): Some sasaengs, stop obsessing over whether I'm going to become your sister-in-law. First, tell your oppas to keep their lower halves under control. Second, I could swim from the Mariana Trench to Mount Everest and still never get a blue passport, and your oppa doesn't like having a panda girl as his girlfriend. Third, if I'm ever going to be a celebrity's sister-in-law, it'll only be G-Dragon's. Happy now? (Visible to mutual followers only)】
Kwon Jiyong: Oh, so when you said it was okay if I didn't make a comeback, it was because you'd gone off to follow other men now. (*^-^*)

Bonus scene:
One day after they got together
Jiyong: The letters you sent me are still at my place. I can't remember what they said. Let's find them and read them out loud...
Tinghan: ?! (Screaming silently and falling apart)
1. This is mainly about following boy bands. Seventeen will probably get the most focus because I know them best. I only recognize the other groups' faces, so I'll try to learn more. It's a little irreverent, so read at your own discretion.
2. The career and romance plotlines are still split evenly. It's a sweet, satisfying story, and the male lead has plenty of scenes; he's not just background decoration.
3. Jiang Tinghan is an all-positive GD fan. When following other groups, she may be a fan of their looks, variety shows, or the group as a whole, and so on. In short, she cares about getting the photos out more than her own life (not really).
4. If you don't like stories about fans becoming their idol's girlfriend, please avoid this one.
5. Long-Han 5.0. In this novel, Coldy at YG may become Cold because YG is dead. This blurb was written on January 23, 2026, and may be changed at any time before the novel starts.

Blurb for 《The Only Fujiang Look in Chinese Entertainment, Yet Everyone's Favorite》:
Yu Xuefei is Chinese entertainment's most famous pretty face: she's vain, looks down on the poor, has abominably bad acting, and is a total phony. Yet she's wildly popular.
That's because she has a face of peerless beauty. Good looks alone can be a dead end, but when you're as beautiful as Yu Xuefei, the public will be endlessly forgiving.
Yu Xuefei also wins people over time and again with her “golden prophecies.”
She berates a rookie for acting so badly that even she could do better, and says they'll be a flop forever. The next year, the rookie becomes the youngest Best Actor in the history of the White Jade Awards.
She calls her assistant useless and says they can't even handle a small task. After quitting, the assistant starts a company, becomes a hot new name in tech, acquires the film company they used to work for, and ends up becoming Yu Xuefei's boss.
She complains to someone that the director of her previous drama wouldn't let her add scenes and cut her screen time down to almost nothing. In the end, that drama becomes the director's highest-rated masterpiece, sweeping up international awards.
Even Yu Xuefei gets to share in its success. The original fox-spirit character she plays in the historical drama becomes her most iconic role. At last, her fans can proudly name a classic screen role their idol has played when fighting with other fandoms, and more people learn about the Jin Dynasty, a period with few surviving records and countless mysteries.
Viewers even say, “Even Crown Princess Fei doesn't feel out of place in this. She has only a few scenes, but I can actually feel her acting talent! The director is terrifyingly good!”
Everyone calls her “Chinese entertainment's Fujiang,” wondering whether these powerful figures will take revenge and have her blacklisted. They even ask Yu Xuefei to insult their own idols so those idols can rise to fame. And yet Yu Xuefei not only thrives in the entertainment industry, her career reaches new heights!
Yu Xuefei goes from being a pretty-face supporting actress for a famous director to the lead written specifically for her by another famous director. An award-winning actor is happy to play second lead to her, the company boss pours in money without regard for the budget in pursuit of the best possible results, and one hit drama after another arrives, each with a different subject. Her films win her every award from Most Popular Newcomer to Best Supporting Actress to Best Actress, leaving audiences dumbfounded.
You can do that?! She's gone from Crown Princess Fei to Crown Princess Royal! Are all you Xies a little masochistic or something?! (Pointing fingers)
Only Yu Xuefei knows what she's been through. She's so wronged she could cry with frustration.
She called her costar a terrible actor because they had to shoot the kissing scene over and over until her lips were swollen from all the licking.
She called her assistant useless because the assistant always ignored her requests to maintain her figure, feeding her rich meals and whole roast chickens until she became a pig. Then, before filming, she had to starve herself until she was ravenous, sallow, and thin.
She complained that the director wouldn't let her have more scenes because the difficult scenes came first, and they had to be repeated dozens or even hundreds of times in a day. She couldn't just recite “one, two, three, four, five” to slack off
And in the end, they twisted the truth and turned around to blame her!
“Idiot, good-for-nothing, trash, pighead, ugly freak... I hate you so much. Drop dead!”
The three of them took turns soothing her in gentle voices, as if Yu Xuefei had them all bewitched. But their eyes remained perfectly clear, their depths filled with an obsession and possessiveness that would never fade.
This time, we won't let you go again, little fox.
*
In her previous life, Yu Xuefei was a little snow fox living in the Jin Dynasty. As a child, she nearly choked to death stealing a roast chicken meant as an offering, but a young boy at a temple saved her life.
She later learned that the boy was a prince from the imperial palace. Once she learned to take human form, she decided to repay him and traveled a thousand miles to the palace.
In the third year of Shengyuan, the emperor was critically ill, and the court was gripped by anxiety, with a storm brewing on the horizon.
Though a crown prince had already been named, Prince Xie Minghui was beyond reproach as heir. His achievements were outstanding, and he had the support of the court. But two other princes also coveted the throne and wielded considerable influence: the Fourth Prince, Xie Wuyin, whose side was backed by powerful aristocratic families led by the Yang clan, the family of the Noble Consort, and who was the old emperor's favorite son; and the Ninth Prince, Xie Qiulang, the youngest of them all, yet already a renowned veteran of many campaigns.
A fox unexpectedly entered their world at this moment.
Looking at Xie Minghui's features, so like those of the boy she'd once known, Yu Xuefei became convinced he was her benefactor.
Poor benefactor! He's the empress's legitimate son, and should inherit the throne as a matter of course, but his emperor father doesn't love him, and his younger brothers are plotting to harm him...
“I've got it, benefactor! I'll seduce your two younger brothers and make them give up their claim to the throne!”
Xie Minghui cruelly rejected her genius plan, but she paid him lip service and went her own way. The moment she saw Xie Wuyin, she froze again.
Why does this man look exactly like the benefactor from my childhood, too?!
///
Xie Wuyin was unloved as a child and was once sent to a quiet temple far from the capital, where his life was harder than in the Cold Palace. He only found a home when the Noble Consort realized she couldn't bear children and adopted him.
But over the years, those days of ascetic life at the temple became his sweetest memories. He had raised a little fox, beautiful and fluffy, with a big bushy tail.
He'd left too hastily to take the fox with him, and when he went back, the fox was gone.
He thought he'd never see his fox again. He never imagined heaven would grant him this reunion. But why was there a mark from his older brother on his fox?
///
Xie Qiulang heard that the Crown Prince was keeping a beauty hidden away. His eldest brother was soon to marry the daughter of a founding hero, and finding that beauty would be as good as cutting off one of the Crown Prince's arms.
He found the beauty in the gilded cage, but never expected Yu Xuefei to be involved with his fourth brother as well as the Crown Prince.
Looking at the beautiful woman in white, fair as snow and lovely as a celestial being, he unconsciously licked his lips.
What was he to do? He wanted to make this fox his own, too.
In the fifth year of Shengyuan, the emperor officially died, and the battle for the throne began.
Yu Xuefei found herself torn. All three men were her good friends, and each had done her a kindness. Which benefactor should she choose?
Perhaps her conduct as a fickle little fox had enraged them. All three said cruel things to her and drove her out of the capital.
In the spring of the sixth year of Shengyuan, a sudden blizzard descended.
When the three men reached the border town, all they saw was an unmarked gravestone standing in the snow.
The history books say that the Crown Prince, Xie Minghui, won the battle for the throne and changed the era name to Yufei. Though he never married in his life, he often claimed to already have a crown princess, for reasons no one knew.
After losing the struggle, the Fourth Prince vanished without a trace. Some said he became a monk; others said the Crown Prince secretly had him killed. The Ninth Prince became the most renowned general of the Yufei era.
Every spring during Yufei, the emperor and the general would disappear for a while. No one knew why they went traveling, or where they went.
But a few steaming roast chickens always appeared before the plain, unmarked gravestone.
Theme: Love can overcome every hardship.
