"In it for the show, baby." by Grisclair (PG)
Hello! My name is Larky, and this month I will be introducing you all to the wonderful world of Super Junior fanfiction!
Super Junior is a 15-person South Korean boy band, part of the "Korean wave" or "K-pop" music phenomenon. It was created in 2005 by SM Entertainment, and its members are a bunch of lovable, talented goofballs. Although Super Junior is a boy band, it's not considered a "bandom;" instead, it's usually called "k-pop RPF."
I plan to post three times a week, although I don't have a stricter posting schedule than that. Sometimes I'll post three days in a row, sometimes it will be more spaced out.
Let's begin with a rec for today!
--

Why this must be read: I always rec this fic first, because this is the fic that finally got me interested in Super Junior fandom (after months of my friend trying to lure me in). It's an excellent introduction to one of the most important aspects of super junior/k-pop fandom—how the entertainment companies produce an idol's "image," including their pairing assignments. This fic is a discussion of "what's real" in k-pop fandom, and the side of it that we don't always get to see. On a technical level, this fic has subtle character interplay and character growth, and tight, excellent writing.
In it for the show, baby.
