[Showbiz] Don’t You Have a Sister-in-Law of Your Own?

A few words up front: A rage-fueled creation born from K-pop messing with me. At heart, I wanted to write a shamelessly fun novel, but given my writing habits, it leans more toward lots of group-wide adoration, a moderate amount of gossip and schadenfreude, forum posts, and a little bit of angst. Korean entertainment, Japanese entertainment, and a little American entertainment. The protagonist is in an original group under Pledis, since that’s the company I know best, haha. All scandals are fair game. If I accidentally hurt any darling reader’s favorite, I’ll get on my knees and apologize first. This is only a novel, so please don’t conflate it with reality or take it out on real people. Blurb: Pei Xuening figured her life would probably amount to not knowing where she came from or where she was going. Just when she had finally saved enough money to embrace a life as vast as the wilderness, company staff cornered her at the airport. Pei Xuening, watching employees from her company and a rival company tear into each other at the airport: Is this what the adult world is like? After deciding to debut, she still didn’t know where she came from, but now she had somewhere to go: debut and become an idol. As a sixth-generation girl group, hers was a little unusual. They rose to fame by stepping on the fifth-generation groups, always putting down their seniors on music shows, and routinely riding their seniors’ coattails to stir up CP rumors and attract attention. They were the kind of group everyone else couldn’t stand, the kind their own fans wished they could kick out of K-pop. So what? If everyone’s going to leech off someone, why not let promising people do it, and let those who can give something back get their turn first? Besides, shouldn’t seniors stuck at home doing nothing be happy to trend? Is it because they don’t want to trend that they never do? Come on, the times have changed. The heroine is a heartthrob to everyone. Her CP will be chosen from the younger generation, but hasn’t been decided yet. There will be one-on-one relationships at different stages. Theme: Love yourself first, then love others.
