Good morning everyone! Happy Thursday! This morning I published my latest KPDH fanfic (that I have been working on and off since July of last year), which brings together Rumi, Zoey, Mira, and Bobby, plus an activist group led by the former idol (and original character), Yun Hee. She challenges Huntrix on lyrics of their song, "How It's Done," saying certain parts are offensive, leading to an ensuing controversy. This fic also has one-sided attraction (by Rumi), coming out, wall slams, Polytrix themes, LGBTQ+ headcanons, a bisexual protagonist (Rumi), social commentary, secret identity/identity reveal, texting, Korean characters (all three girls and Bobby), crying, hugs, and a focus on toxic idol culture, dark side of K-pop, social history, social movements, U.S. and Korean history, and so much more. Here's the summary:
At a press conference to celebrate their new album, "How It's Done: Deluxe Version," a woman named Yun Hee, grabs a microphone and tells Huntrix they are being disrespectful for singing about "going rambo" and a "napalm era" in their hit song. After Yun Hee asks Huntrix to change the song and agree to not promote militaristic messages in their music, she, and her two comrades, are escorted out. Bobby cuts the press conference short. Zoey, Mira, and Rumi are not only shaken but angry that someone demanded they change the lyrics of their song. While Zoey and Mira say that the woman had a right to speak her mind, Rumi believes that the activist group wanted to damage the band's reputation. She comforts her two friends in this tense situation. Later, when she looks up the group on her phone, she learns that Yun Hee was right all along, and she starts to have feelings she never expected, causing to internally panic. At the same time, Huntrix faces a crisis of its own…
I hope you all enjoy it! Comments and concrit are welcome.
