High school junior Jenny and her mom are headed to Korea because her grandmother has cancer and need surgery and help. Jenny has been accepted at a prestigious Korean performing arts school because of her skillful cello-playing. In fact, her dream is to be accepted into a NYC performing arts school. What she hasn’t done is been able to get ahold of the Korean boy she met at her uncle’s karaoke bar in Los Angeles a few weeks ago. - the very cute Korean boy with whom she shared a meal, some pictures, and a flight from some college kids. The extremely cute Korean boy whom she hasn’t heard from since. Imagine her surprise when she finds out he is actually part of a very popular K-pop group. While there might be chemistry between the two of them, they may not have any sort of a future. How can there be?
Many of my students are loving romance books right now. While I may not know any K-pop music, through this book and a couple of others I’ve recently read I have learned a lot about the culture surrounding it. Jenny and Jaewoo’s meet cute makes for very cute reading too.
