I have terrible taste. I’ve forgotten most of the books I’ve read, lol. The ratings are meaningless anyway, since JJ won’t let you give five stars to more than 50% of your reads.
Korean Entertainment: Unhinged, Forum Format
So many authors have stopped updating. I’m saving the Korean entertainment novels I like so I can remember my taste. The ones marked “red” at the top are ones I reread again and again. Locked books have been deleted.
Boy Bands, Girl Groups, Auditions, American Showbiz, and Korean Entertainment
Korean, American, and Chinese entertainment-industry stories. Mostly Korean entertainment with shameless antics; includes no-romance, multi-stage romance, forum-style stories, charming leads, and power fantasies. Search for the Korean entertainment shameless-fun list on Green L.
Korean Entertainment Series Archive
Most of these have male protagonists. I'll add more later, so feel free to leave comments and recommendations! There are recommendations in the comments too!
Korean Entertainment Forum Posts | Wicked Humor
Mostly things I've read recently or in the past. Some are pretty unhinged. I'm a fan of forum-style stories, and this is just a record of the stuff I like. Feel free to recommend similar stories if you like the same kind of thing!
Korean Entertainment Industry Stories / Chaotic Stories
Updated whenever. Deleted everything that was locked, and removed the one that plagiarized.
Chaotic K-Pop Stories
Paradise for people who love a laugh. The star rating indicates how shamelessly outrageous it is.
Only Forum-Style Stories
Forum-style stories
Korean Entertainment Fanfiction: Original Characters Joining Existing Groups
I'm not especially into female-pursues-female stories, unless they're really good. You can sort by my recommendation ratings.
K-Pop, Shameless, Forum Format
The four-star ones just didn't quite make five. Check the featured comments for recommendations of novels not on Jinjiang.
Chaotic, Hilarious Reads for My Own Enjoyment
Chaos.
K-Pop Novel Recommendations
Every novel here is one I've read and enjoyed!
Korean Entertainment, For Some Chaotic Fun
Sometimes characters in trashy fics are written with more charm. I'll add new ones as I find them.
K-Pop Fandom Fics With No Morals
Both male and female leads appear, but most stories have no fixed male lead. P.S. I have my own favorite now, so lately I can't get into mean-spirited stories, though I will still add some pure romance stories.
K-Pop, Unhinged
I wonder if I can give them all five stars
K-Pop Guilty Pleasures (My Personal Taste)
I made this collection to keep track of things for myself. It leans toward fourth-, fifth-, and sixth-generation girl and boy groups, and most of the stories are delightfully mean-spirited. I've mostly drifted away, so I'll update this list if inspiration strikes.
K-Pop, Saved for Myself
I really got into Korean entertainment, so this is just an archive
Girlies Take on K-Pop 3.0
Still mostly irreverent K-pop fanfic focused on generations five and six. I don’t like it when it isn’t irreverent. Some stories where a woman is reincarnated as a man will be labeled.
Korean Entertainment Fanfic Reading Notes
Every genre is represented, and the collection is still being put together. The authors keep disappearing, and I keep crying...
K-Pop Grab Bag
Chaotic, forum-style, unhinged, and all about having a laugh... there are tons of these, but being wicked is fun.

Following Shameless Korean Entertainment Fics
A mishmash of stuff, mostly for the hilariously awful forums
Chaotic Korean Entertainment RPF
They’re all about Korean entertainment. They aren’t necessarily that dark, but I think they’re good.
Korean Entertainment RPF
Chaotic, morally questionable fiction for people who just want a laugh

Having been severely deceived by the created persona, I am now a boy. I am absolutely sure that he has a lot of black stuff. It is okay to appreciate his appearance and stage occasionally, but it is absolutely not okay for me to spend money on it.
When I was in my 20s, I was crazy about chasing stars. I spent a large part of my life. I spent my energy, time, and money like water. Every day when I didn't work, I was like taking drugs. Later, due to some reasons, I completely lost my fandom and became a Korean entertainment girl. I just like ordinary people did not understand myself at that time, so I ended my long adolescence hastily and decisively. Now, this year, after seven or eight years, I have started to fall into the circle again, but not so crazy, like a real adult. In the entertainment industry, you treat it as entertainment, watch it for fun or spend money to buy emotional value. This is the 18th level of star chasing. You cannot fall into the trap of the fan circle. Don't chase stars for the sake of chasing stars. It is a one-way effort in itself. If you feel uncomfortable, leave [Compare Heart]
What I believe in chasing stars is the theory of projection. The so-called love is actually the pursuit of the fantasy self and the desired life state. Maybe it's also the desire to be loved – there will always be someone in the world who loves me unconditionally, right? Idol is an industry, but also a phantom in a dream. It is a profession about selling fantasy, but the undertone of fantasy is cruel, stupid, commercial and replicable. We long for the love we devote to our idols to be reciprocated, and we can satisfy the emptiness and shortcomings in our hearts through dedication and putting aside rationality to fight for him/her. However, friends and comrades, I think fighting in an information cocoon will not have good results, right? Can blind love really have a rational future? Will there be equal rewards for running with passion? I think only you know the answer to this question. I have loved some people truly and sincerely before, but now that I think about it, I actually love myself and my colleagues. Because at that time I really longed for attention and love, but it was also the most painful period for me. Behind this love, there is pain. I naively thought that I not only love your light, I also love your shadow, your vulnerability and helplessness. But in the end, I really discovered that this vulnerability may also be packaged. Once I cast doubt on it, cracks appeared in my trust. This little me has been really hurt by some people, but I know clearly that the blackmail is really because of my lovely partner and can't bear to break up. While chewing the pain, I type "Wow, I can't explain it to the universe." Hahaha,,, there is no future for those who love celebrities. . .
The baby I saw will be smooth and happy in 2026. If you are willing to eat a small candy (physical meaning), you can come to wb at 12:12~
Hey, it's such a pity that I didn't get to see the end. Happy now
I feel like if I wait long enough, my red and black colors will be updated as well [Spread hands]
311 Is a good dayhhhh
I understand the teacher, so I can't say anything to persuade him to stay. The Li Hua the teacher wrote is great. I will miss him until I completely forget him. What a pity! [Crying]
In fact, you don't have to write about beautiful things, right? [Poor]
It's even updated. Happy New Year!
